LAMPWORKING KILN
Model P-9 Lampworking kiln designed by AIM KILNS and disrtibuted by JPS KILNS knowing the needs of the artist. The model P-9 is one of the most popular on the market for its functionality and compact size, created to meet the needs of the artist behind the torch. It runs on 120v outlet which makes it affordable for any workshop, If you work on small and medium projects, the model P-9 is one of the kilns design to carry them out.
The P-9 is one of our smallest lamp working models in our Professional Kiln series. Weighing in at just under 90 pounds, it’s small enough to move or transport but large enough for an artist to have plenty of space for multi sectional pieces or multiple small- medium pieces or vessels. Like a majority of the models in our Professional Series, it is equipped with (5) five doors to maximize versatility and function that today’s artists require. The P-9 replaces a recently discontinued 99LS/D model that was a staple in the industry for nearly three decades. With roughly the same interior size and similar cosmetic appearance, the newer and much more revised version is a night and day comparison. After three long years of rigorous engineering, testing and feedback from multiple artists, countless hours perfecting the new door design, and we are finally confident that we have released what is hands down the most technical lamp working kiln in the industry.
The P-9 was designed for bead making, lamp working, and other various glass work with a maximum operating temperature of 1400 degrees fahrenheit. Available in 120, 208, 240 volt power source.
This model offers a 2 year electrical and lifetime craftsmanship warranty
Features:
- All new main door design incorporating five individual fully adjustable doors that offer a variety of versatility and options to make accessibility simple and highly functional.
- 10 degree angle in the main chamber face that helps produce even heat throughout the interior chamber. This angled chamber cut also provides even wear and a tight door seal on every unit.
- 304 stainless steel used in the bead doors to handle temperature in high heat areas.
- Fully adjustable pressure assisted door design allowing all doors to firmly stay open or in any position. *patent pending*
- Our Profession Series kilns do NOT use any fiber board insulation in the lids, main doors, or bead doors as fiber board is an inadequate source of insulation and a major source of heat leakage and shrinkage when used as a sole insulator in annealing kilns.
