Skutt Kilns Glass Firing

With GlassFire Mode you just enter 2 pieces of data, whether you want to Fuse, Slump, or Tack Fuse and what Speed you want to fire at depending on the size and thickness of the piece. The controller then chooses a program for you that was designed by Artist, Author and Glass Expert Gil Reynolds. The programs were designed to work for both 90 COE and 96 COE.

When you press Start the kiln will run a program that takes into account: Thermal Shock, Process Time and Process Temperature, and Annealing. Just come back when the kiln is cool enough to unload.

SKUTT 12 KEY GM CONTROLLER

Sophisticated, Yet Easy to Use

The GlassMaster Controller is the only controller on the market with GlassFire Mode. GlassFire Mode allows you to run a program simply by entering the type of effect you want: Fuse, Tack Fuse or Slump and a speed based on the size and thickness of the project. It really is that easy and it works on most projects.
If you prefer to write your own firing programs simply use the Ramp/Hold programming mode which can store up to 8 of your custom programs with up to 8 Segments. When you are ready to use one of your stored programs just load it and press start.
Built in Diagnostics give you or our technicians the ability to diagnose kiln problems with just a few button presses.
Active Keys allow you to make adjustments to the program while it is running based on a visual inspection. The Anneal Now key allows you to skip to the annealing phase of the program with a single key press. Add Time allows you to add 5 minutes to the final heating segment of the program if your project needs more time and Add Temp allow you to increase the temperature in the final heating segment if you want the glass to get hotter.
