Sliding Plate Kilns
Arched Vault
Digital & IoT
Electronic Combustion
Energy saving
Full Electric
Highest temperatures
Tailor-made
Continuous cycle furnaces where the product to be thermal treated cross the hearth by means of refractory plates moved by a pusher.
The material advances over refractory plates with special wear-resistant characteristics, pushed by a hydraulic pusher with adjustable speed. In the past, this was a very common type of kiln, especially in the field of tableware and artistic ceramics.
