GM-814 - Nice Studio Kiln

This kiln is a great size. it won't take up too much room in your studio yet holds the majority of work produced by a small studio.

The Controller

The GlassMaster Controller is the only controller on the market with GlassFire Mode. GlassFire Mode allows you to run a program simply by entering the type of effect you want: Fuse, Tack Fuse, or Slump, and a speed based on the size and thickness of the project. It really is that easy and it works on most projects.
If you prefer to create your own firing programs simply use the Ramp/Hold programming mode which can store up to 8 of your custom programs with up to 8 Segments. When you are ready to use one of your stored programs just load it and press start.
Built-in Diagnostics give you or our technicians the ability to diagnose kiln problems with just a few button presses.
Active Keys allow you to make adjustments to the program while it is running based on a visual inspection. The Anneal Now key allows you to skip to the annealing phase of the program with a single key press. Add Time allows you to add 5 minutes to the final heating segment of the program if your project needs more time and Add Temp allows you to increase the temperature in the final heating segment if you want the glass to get hotter.

Current Sensing Technology

Skutt is one of the few brands that installs a Current Sensor in every GlassMaster Kiln. This allows you to read the Amperage of each section of the kiln as well as the Voltage and Voltage Under Load.

Now with the touch of a few buttons, you can give those readings over the phone to your kiln repair technician so they can troubleshoot the problem and make sure they have the correct parts when they come out for the repair. This Saves Time and Money.

Prior to the use of these current sensors, someone would have to come to your house and test the amperage and voltage inside the control box with live wires exposed. This system is Much Safer.

Balanced Elements

Glass is very susceptible to uneven heating. The more uneven the heat is in the kiln chamber, the slower you need to fire the kiln.

Skutt Studio Kiln Series have lid elements and side elements. The side elements are there to replenish heat on the top and bottom of the kiln. This provides uniform heat throughout the top and bottom of the kiln for artists working with deep molds and drop molds. it also aids in keeping the shelf warm!

The Thermocouple

An exposed Thermocouple equals faster reaction time and higher accuracy.
Inexpensive, plus Skutt gives you an extra one when you buy your kiln.
Easy and quick to replace.
