At Kilns & Furnaces, we design and manufacture high-performance investment casting kilns and investment casting furnaces engineered to meet the demanding requirements of modern investment casting operations. With over 70 years of experience, our systems provide precise temperature control, uniform heating, and robust reliability: essential for producing high-quality cast components across aerospace, automotive, medical, and industrial applications.

Our investment casting equipment ensures consistent wax burnout, shell firing, and metal melting cycles, helping manufacturers achieve repeatable results and superior component integrity.

Advanced Kilns for Casting Processes

Investment casting relies on precise thermal management at every stage of production, and our investment casting kilns and furnaces are engineered to provide uniform heat distribution and stable thermal performance. They offer fully controllable ramp and soak profiles to ensure complete burnout of wax patterns without damaging the ceramic shell, accurate shell firing for strong, defect-free moulds, and controlled temperature environments for molten metal handling.

Each unit incorporates advanced insulation, computer-controlled temperature monitoring, and programmable cycle control, providing consistent results in both batch and continuous production workflows.

Applications & Capabilities

Our investment casting kilns and furnaces support a wide range of casting processes, including:

• Wax Pattern Burnout: Efficiently removing wax without damaging the ceramic shell
• Shell Firing: Controlled heating to strengthen moulds prior to metal pouring
• Metal Melting & Casting: Precise temperature control for molten alloys
• Heat Soaking & Thermal Stabilisation: Reducing stress and improving dimensional accuracy
• Bespoke Casting Cycles: Customised temperature profiles for specialised alloys and complex components

Furnaces can be configured for various production scales, multi-zone control, atmosphere management, and full process data logging for quality assurance.

Engineered for Performance & Compliance

All of our investment casting kilns and furnaces are manufactured to meet UKCA, CE, and BS EN 746 standards, ensuring safe, reliable, and energy-efficient operation. Their robust construction and high-quality components provide long-term durability, while advanced digital controls maintain precise temperature uniformity across each firing cycle.

Energy-efficient insulation reduces operational costs, and the systems are designed to meet the exact thermal profiles required for wax burnout, shell firing, and molten metal casting. We work closely with manufacturers to ensure each furnace is tailored to specific alloy compositions, mould sizes, and production requirements.
