Vitrigraph Kiln
We design and manufacture dedicated kilns for pulling glass rods, stringers, twisties, as well as elements for mosaics and murrini slices. The suspended structure with a bottom aperture enables smooth and safe gravity-fed liquid glass forming.
Why Choose Our Vitrigraph Kiln?
Thoughtful design ensuring optimal glass viscosity and operational safety
Temperature up to 1000°C
High-quality Kanthal A-1 heating coils ensure rapid heating to molten glass temperature and a stable pulling process.
Dedicated Bottom Hole
A specially designed chamber bottom enables precise flow of molten glass and easy installation of crucibles or molds.
Novus PID Control
Precise temperature control prevents glass overheating and maintains ideal viscosity during stringer pulling.
