Skutt GM 1414 Glass Kiln

Kiln Overview

The GM1414 is likely the most widely used kiln by professional glass instructors in the country. The big oval firing chamber makes it convenient to load a large quantity of pieces and the accuracy helps ensure proper and even firing for the whole load. Comes standard with a Lid Lifter installed.

Current Sensing Technology

Skutt is one of the few brands that installs a Current Sensor in every GlassMaster Kiln. This allows you to read the Amperage of each section of the kiln as well as the Voltage and Voltage Under Load.

Now with the touch of a few buttons you can give those readings over the phone to your kiln repair technician so they can troubleshoot the problem and make sure they have the correct parts when they come out for the repair. This Saves Time and Money.

Prior to the use of these current sensors someone would have to come to your house and test the amperage and voltage inside the control box with live wires exposed. This system is Much Safer.

Sectional Design

Sectional Design is a good idea on so many levels.

Moving
Imagine trying to move a kiln into the basement or through a narrow door without being able to break it down into sections.

Repair
No more standing on your head in the kiln to replace those bottom elements or removing every brick in the kiln to get to the one you want to replace. Just remove the control box, unhook the buckles and place the section you want to work on on a table.

Replacement
We hope nothing really bad happens to your kiln … but … if it does, isn’t nice to know you can replace one bad section instead of the whole kiln?

Balanced Elements

A large amount of the heat you lose in your kiln passes to through the lid and slab of your kiln. To compensate for this, Skutt directs more heat to these areas when they design the elements. The fact that we have twice the element grooves in our kilns gives us more design flexibility than some of our competitors.

It also gives you more loading options since it is always recommended to have at least one element radiating between each layer of shelves. Oh and by the way, twice the grooves means you get twice the amount of element wire, which means each element doesn’t have to work as hard, which means longer element life! Whew!

Zone Control

• Thermocouple in each section of the kiln allows controller to control each section separately to even out temperature variations top to bottom.
• Critical when fusing on multiple shelves and annealing large blown vessels.
• Works in conjunction with balanced elements to ensure firing efficiency.

The Thermocouple

• Exposed Thermocouple equals faster reaction time and higher accuracy.
• Inexpensive, plus we give you an extra one when you buy your kiln.
• Easy and quick to replace.

The Warranty

• Unlike most warranties, ours covers Parts AND Labor.
• Never Pro-Rated.
• Serviced by the most extensive, knowledgeable and talented distributor network in the industry.
• Backed by a company whose mission statement is “We help you make great things”. When your kiln is down, you can’t make great things.

The Lid Lifter

• Standard on GM1414
• Lift 100lbs with ease!
• All stainless construction.
• Easy and safe to tension.

And So Much More!

When you are buying a kiln, you are not just buying the equipment, you are also buying the service that comes before and after the sale. From the moment we cut that first brick to the day you open the box, to the day you are ready to retire it, our reputation is on the line and we take that very seriously. Get the whole story here.
