Easy-to-Load Production Kilns

DaVinci Bell-Lift kilns can be loaded from all four sides. The temperature uniformity is unsurpassed.  They are available on the X3200 Series (30-1/2 square) and T3400 series (30-1/2" x 43-1/2 rectangular). The kiln sections and top are held together as one unit with a metal support frame. This unit is lifted up with a ratcheted hand winch mounted on the external frame. There are manual safety pins that lock the kiln in place when the kiln is fully raised. The support frame is made from heavy duty welded parts that are easily assembled on site so that the system can be easily broken down for shipping. An 18", 27" or 36" high kiln (interior) will be 105" high, and a 45" high kiln will be 123" high.

See the T3400 and TB3400 Series and X3200 and XB3200 series on the DaVinci Square/Rectangular Kiln Series page for all the models that can be ordered with the Bell-Lift System. Powered bottoms can also be used. The price of this option is $4995 added to any of the base prices of the available DaVinci models.
