A kiln is a specialized oven used to heat and transform substances, particularly clay products, into a more durable and hardened form, such as ceramics.
It operates at extremely high temperatures, similar to an oven, but for the purpose of firing, drying, baking, hardening, or burning various materials.
Kilns provide a controlled environment for the firing process, allowing for efficient control of temperature rise and fall.
They are typically made of refractory materials and have a heavy steel frame on the outside, with fire brick insulation on the inside to retain heat.
Kilns come in different types, including gas, wood, and electric kilns, depending on the fuel used to power them.
These ovens are designed to maintain their structural integrity over many firings while minimizing heat loss.
They also provide protection for the ware being fired and allow for easy loading and unloading.
The atmosphere inside the kiln, whether oxidation or reduction, can strongly influence the character of the ceramics being fired.
