Instrumental characteristics

Roller kiln for rapid tile cycles – imitates the heat treatment process used in the tile industry. Reaches the maximum temperature of 1320°C with the possibility of thermal cycles from a minimum of 8 minutes and 30 seconds to a maximum of 5 hours and 30 minutes – Specimens of size 11 × 6 cm – Manufacturer Nannetti ER-15.
