If you are a bead maker or flame worker this is the kiln for you.

Many hours, conversations and planning with major British

beaders and flame workers are to thank for the development

of what we believe to be as good as a kiln can be to suit your

needs, ensuring that nothing has been overlooked.

From it's superb efficiency (tests with its main competitor show

that the MAXI uses between 35% and 40% less electricity

over the same 8 hour garaging period and 5 hour annealing

cycle), to it's unique lowered floor, to it's removable rod

stabilisers and detachable racks (allowing 90 and over

beads to be annealed at the same time), this really is a unique

kiln made with a specific artist in mind.

Not only this, but you can also choose your colour!

In standard form the MAXI is Kilncare Ultramarine Blue and the

MAXIne is pink (this kiln set a trend across the world).

However, you can choose your prefered colour for a small

colour change fee.

Simply get in touch with us with your colour requirement and if

we have it in our swatch then we can do your kiln in it.

The KCR32C is multi-program controller designed for glass, ceramics & pottery use. It is 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 and 9 typical ceramics programs (which can be over-written).

The slow rate capability of the KCR32C, down to 1c per hour, makes it the perfect controller for complicated glass cycles.

KCR32C WIFI Controller (Optional)

The KCR32CWIFi is internally the same as the KCR32C but has the capability to be accessed

and controlled remotely from your mobile device.

This is one of the most important advances in Kilncare kilns for many years.

Using Kilncares GATEway access site you can view how your kiln is running in real time. Stop the

firing or adjust programs all without even being in the same country let alone the same room.

The KCR32WIFI is also fitted with a USB port that allows programs to be entered that way direct from PC if required and also allows us to apply updates and run diagnostics without travelling to your kiln.

Internet access to view real time status and access data

The optional KCR32C WIFI allows the user to access the kiln in real time from anywhere with internet access via the Kilncare GATEway on our website. The benefits of this are obvious as there is no longer the need to travel to the studio or work place to see how the firing is proceeding or if indeed the firing is going as planned.

Also in the GATEway, which is unique to each user via password access, there is a firings library where past firings can be stored and named, a notes section and a log amongst other features.

13A Plug-in Supply

The MAXI comes with a standard 13A plug and lead, allowing for you to simply plug it into the wall and get firing without having to worry about getting the kiln hardwired in! This also makes relocation a lot easier as you will just need to make sure that wherever it is going to has a socket.

Unique Lowered floor

The kiln has a unique lower floor that enables the lower row of beads to be inserted at a slight down facing angle. This allows the kiln to house three rows of beads at differing heights on its unique real wall rack. The result is a possible 90 or more beads (size depending) to be annealed without touching each other or having to be moved. Many more if the racks are removed.

Internal rod racks

The internal rear rod racks are in 1.3 sections with a spare, 1/2 height section supplied for those much thicker rods. The kiln has to service many areas of bead making and so it is designed to mix and match. The interior rack is in 3 pieces and any one can be removed and a lower rack inserted for larger flame work.

Rod Stabilisers

The rod stabiliser on the front can be clipped off in either 1/3 or 2/3 sections. depending on rod size and length.

Mineral Insulated Element

In Kilncare tradition, the kiln is ultra-safe. The element is protected by a steel sheath making it impossible for the element to be accidentally touched. This also ensures that the kiln elements can be safely left running whilst the mandrel is placed

Additional Boards

2 additional half Boards are supplied that bring the lower floor level with the front edge so making for a flat floor which may be preferable for off mandrel applications.

Stainless steel doors with thumb flick catch

The stainless steel doors cements the MAXIs position as the finest of ALL Bead Annealing Kilns.
The doors have a thumb throw door catch that automatically keeps the door in the closed position but opening of the door is still a single handed “flick” operation.
The handles are covered with our unique COOL handles heat resistant sheathing.

Fast Response Thermocouple

The KCR32C gets its data from an ultra-fast response, stainless steel thermocouple meaning no lag between the kiln temperature and the KCR32Cs control.
The fact that the thermocouple is stainless steel means it is also resilient to accidental damage.

Choice of colour

In standard form the MAXI is Kilncare Ultramarine Blue and the MAXIne is pink (this kiln set a trend across the world).

However, you can choose your prefered colour for a small colour change fee.
