The KilnMaster Touchscreen  

After years of refinement, Skutt has introduced the new Touchscreen controller, with built-in WiFi!

Like Your Smartphone, the new KMT controller navigates with just a touch of a finger and allows us to guide you through programming with full sentences, helpful icons, and dynamic navigation. 

Built-in WiFi makes it possible to download any software feature upgrades for free so it is like having a new Kiln Controller for the life of the kiln.

A Free App works in conjunction with the WiFi and allows you to monitor your kiln temperature and status from your smartphone. Think how comforting it will be not to get out of bed to be sure your kiln shut off as expected.

The Hinged Controller allows you to move the controller up and down to an angle that is comfortable for you to program. No more getting on your hands and knees. After programming you can push it back down so it is out of your way and easy to view from across the room.

It has the Same Functions you have come to know and love from the standard KilnMaster Controller Plus More! 

  

The KilnMaster Controller 

The KilnMaster controller has long been considered the standard of the industry. This controller comes with most of the features available on the new KilnMaster Touchscreen controller but does not include WiFi, an App for remote viewing, or Help Screens.

Whether you are doing a simple bisque firing or programming your own 10 segment program, the KilnMaster controller is intuitive and easy to use. The folks over at Skutt spent a lot of time designing a layout that allows access to all the features efficiently. Even if you have never programmed a kiln before, you will feel like an expert in no time at all.

With ConeFire Mode you just enter 4 pieces of data Preheat Time, Cone Value, Firing Speed, and Peak Temperature Hold Time. The controller then chooses a program for you that was designed by ceramic engineers for optimum results. It even has Cone Correlation built in that will adjust your ending temperature up or down based on the kilns performance to ensure the perfect amount of heatwork.

The Preheat feature gives you the option to preheat your unfired pieces to make sure there is no residual moisture in the clay that can cause damage to the ware.

You can even turn on a feature now that lets you add a slow cooling ramp to your firing schedule that produces interesting glaze effects. It is appropriately named the COOL feature.

 

Mini Touchscreen

 

We’ve taken things a touch more into the future for our smaller kiln models.  Moving from the 3-Button Controller to the Mini Touchscreen was a no-brainer.  This controller has nearly all the features of the full-sized KMT controller and is just as easy to program. The GlazeTech, Firebox 8×6 and Firebox 8×4 models are now manufactured with the Mini Touchscreen Controller.
