Use of the kiln
The electric
Kittec

X-LINE
kilns are built in
accordance with German Law VDE (association for
electrical, electronic and information technologies)
,
exclusively for the purpose of firing, thermal treatment
and/or melting of ceramics, china, enamel, glaze and/or
glass. The maximum temperature in the firing chamber
of the kiln is 1300°C.
The melting temperature of glazes and the vitrification
temperature of the clays used will dictate the firing
temperature required, invariably less than 1300 °C.
