QUALITY:

MAESTRO kiln ensures the highest percentages of first class products and minimizes waste. Quality and zero defects whatever the working conditions

LOW CONSUMPTION:

Thanks to innovative burners, precision adjustment and controls, MAESTRO kiln is big on making consumption small

ENERGY SAVING:

it’s possible to recover the cooling air to run a multi-layer dryer or recover heat from fume chimney by using a heat exchanger
.

FLEXIBILITY:

Consistency and repeatability under all working conditions, lower consumption and maximum manufacturing versatility thanks to new digital set-ups

SUSTAINABILITY:

MAESTRO kiln adopts solutions that reduce environmental impact by incorporating systems to reduce organic and inorganic compounds contained in the fumes

FUTURE-PROOF:

Environmental engagement to reduce the CO2 emissions. Two ongoing research paths: Electricity and Hydrogen, also mixed with methane.

WHY CHOOSING MAESTRO KILNS?

More Productive:

Less waste and improved outgoing product quality thanks to optimal firing control and effective management of production gaps.User-friendly.

More Connected

Digital management of recipes and digitized adjustment parameters. Native connection to HERE, the 4.0 Digital Manufacturing platform.

More Sustainable

Minimum consumption and optimized heat exchange thanks to burners with high-speed flame internal combustion. Lower CO2 and NOx emissions.

More Productive

MAESTRO kiln ensures the highest percentages of first class products and minimizes waste. For preventing typical defects (black core, edge cracking, planarity, color tone, dunting, tensioning and size), SACMI takes specific solutions, such as: the new high-speed burner, precise and diversified blowing adjustment in the rapid cooling, burners in slow cooling, upgraded kiln pressure control.

More Connected

In the latest Sacmi digital kiln, through the HMI kiln management it is possible to monitor accurately all the data relating to temperatures, flow rates and the air-gas ratio for each set of burners.

The user can, for each zone, also set the desired maximum and minimum air flow rate to limit the working range of the burner set. When there’s a product changeover the kiln automatically readjusts to provide the air/gas ratios set on the recipe.

The kiln HMI is naturally connected to HERE supervisor.

More Sustainable

Ceramic manufacturing can - and must - be eco-sustainable. With SACMI technology, achieving that goal is indeed possible.
Filtering the fumes released by organic and inorganic components is a key aspect of kiln use.
To reduce inorganic pollutants, manufacturers can use the tried and tested solution of combining sleeve filters with calcium hydroxide injection. For the organic pollutants that generate odours, instead, these days a Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer is used.
We can combine the two solutions to obtain the most effective fumes treatment.
