This furnace, also called a bisque firing kiln, conducts the initial firing of ceramic ware to transform shaped clay into a durable, porous bisque. Operating around 900°C, it drives off physical and chemical water and begins vitrification. The working principle involves a controlled ramp-up of temperature to prevent steam pressure from cracking the ware, followed by a soak period and controlled cooling. Its purpose is to harden the clay body so it can withstand handling and the absorption of liquid glaze before the final firing. It is a fundamental first step in all professional and studio pottery production.
This configuration is suitable when the sample load must fit a 885 x 475 x 475 MM chamber with usable chamber volume of 199.7 litre, approximate power load of 24.6 kW, rectangular - wide chamber profile. It is commonly selected for laboratory, QC, metallurgical, ceramic, pharmaceutical and industrial heat-treatment work requiring stable heating and repeatable process conditions. Typical use includes general laboratory and industrial heat-treatment applications requiring stable, repeatable temperature control.

Uniform chamber heating and a simple door-loading design make a muffle furnace straightforward to standardise across multiple operators and shifts.
Where sample volume and process type vary week to week, a general-purpose muffle furnace avoids the cost of maintaining several process-specific furnace types.
As a general-purpose muffle furnace, this model covers a broader range of routine heating tasks than a process-specific ashing, tube or sintering furnace, making it the practical default when the lab runs mixed sample types rather than one dedicated process.
