Application Report Kiln applications
In the manufacture of ceramic products, the temperature curve in the kiln has a significant influence on the reject rate and fuel consumption. For optimal kiln control, accurate measuring devices are therefore required, which ideally record the material temperature directly.
Pyrometers have proved their worth for measuring the temperature. They measure the infrared radiation of the objects and calculate the temperature from it. The measurement is carried out optically and thus wear-free from a safe distance. The measurement takes place in a few milliseconds. Pyrometers can therefore be used to maintain the optimum firing curve much more precisely and thus minimise fuel consumption.
