An industry term for the kiln used in "glost firing," the final firing of already-glazed pottery. Operating around 1000°C, its sole purpose is to mature the glaze. The working principle is similar to a glazing furnace but is often used in a production line context where bisque ware from a biscuit kiln is glazed and then transferred to the glost kiln. It is engineered for efficiency and consistency in large-scale tableware and sanitaryware manufacturing, where thousands of pieces are fired at once.
Trutherm manufactures 1000 Degree Celsius (°C) Glost Furnace 340 x 250 x 280 MM Chamber for buyers who search by exact machine type, chamber size and 1000°C temperature rating. This page is specific to the MM dimension version, so the chamber size is presented in the unit normally used in the buyer's drawing, tender or purchase request.
This configuration is suitable when the sample load must fit a 340 x 250 x 280 MM chamber with usable chamber volume of 23.8 litre, approximate power load of 10.4 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.
Equivalent chamber references: 340 x 250 x 280 MM, 34 x 25 x 28 CM and 13 x 10 x 11 INCH.

Routine QC and teaching labs value a muffle furnace precisely because one unit can cover several standard test methods without dedicated process-specific tooling.
Uniform chamber heating and a simple door-loading design make a muffle furnace straightforward to standardise across multiple operators and shifts.
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.
