For Porcelain Firing
The Ibex Summit and Summit Press muffle is constructed with a proprietary Radiance Ring precisely
mounted from the top of the inside of the muffle. Therefore, its height is fixed relative to the firing
brick.
DO NOT
use a firing apparatus, i.e.: a honeycomb tray or similar devise that has
a width greater
than 0.5in (13mm) or a diameter greater than 3in (76mm)
, as this is the width of the top of the
firing brick. Failure to adhere to this height and width restriction can result in damage to the Radiance
Ring and damage or loss to your work(s).
Firing trays should never hang over the edge of the firing brick, but should be centered on the brick
and may safely be placed to the edge of the firing brick.
For Pressing
Do not use reusable plungers with the Ibex Summit Press.
Regardless of any information or advice pertaining to the use of reusable plungers in other furnaces,
reusable plungers are not to be used
in the Summit Press.
The Ibex Summit Press was specifically designed to press using
disposable plungers
for all pressable
materials. While there is no physical danger to the furnace with using reusable plungers, the most
common result will be an incomplete pressing where the material barely moves through into the sprue.
An Additional Note on Programming Vacuum
Many furnaces do not allow for the programming of a specific vacuum level but instead provide for a
“YES / NO” or a percentage of vacuum entry, typically 90% to 100%. The Summit furnaces allow for
a more precise vacuum control. A simple rule for entering programs that do not state a specific vacuum
level in cm or inches is to enter 72 – 73 cm (28 inches). Higher vacuum levels of 74 - 75 cm (29inches)
can be programmed in. However, most vacuum pumps will have difficulty achieving these levels.
