Elements:

The Hobbyfuser Gen4 utilises the latest technology "infra-red" quartz heating elements, designed for high performance and effective insulation. This means your Hobbyfuser will make the crucial ramp from 700°C to 800°C in as little as 9 minutes, ensuring the glass doesn't get "over-worked" by being in the heat longer than is required. The elements are located in the lid for even heating, which also makes them easy to replace if required. The elements are switched off when the lid is opened by an automatic safety switch.

Lid:

The stainless steel lid is powder coated and oven baked, then lined out with press cut, non-ceramic fibre.  This eliminates the risk of brick dust particles dropping from the lid, making for a very clean firing environment. This design enables the Hobbyfuser to retain heat when needed but still release heat rapidly during the all-important cool-down period.

The opening and closing of the lid is a single finger operation, thanks to a pair of well designed stainless steel springs at the rear of the kiln. There are also two handles for left or right hand lifting and a special catch design to hold the lid closed.

In the centre of the lid is a vent hole which comes with a matching plug. This is positioned to the rear of the chamber to avoid particle contamination on the glass.

Base: 

The base section of the chamber is made from refractory brick and made in such a way that the bricks can be easily replaced without the need for cement etc. With only approximately 2/3rds of the available height being in the base it means that access to the floor is not restricted by high walls.
  

Controller:

The Hobbyfuser Gen4 comes with the KCR32C Controller which is a multi-program controller targeted towards glass use with 32 programs each of up to 32 segments. Each segment is a controlled heating/cooling ramp followed by a soak. It is supplied pre-programmed with 9 typical glass programs (which can be over-written).

Optional WiFi Controller Upgrade: Monitor your kiln in real time, from anywhere in the world with an internet connection! The KCR32CWIFI is the same as the standard KCR32C, but with remote access to the Kilncare GATEway, enabling you to view the kiln status and temperature, review the program, create a library of firing schedules, view error faults and manually stop the firing if needed. For more details on the WiFi features of this controller, see the KCR32CWIFI Overview or contact our team on 01934 863344.
