Kilns

Kilns are industrial ovens used to heat materials to high temperatures to bring about chemical or physical changes. They are commonly used in ceramics to harden clay into pottery, in the production of bricks, and in the manufacturing of glass and cement. The process involves controlled heating and cooling to achieve the desired properties in the final product. Different types of kilns, such as electric, gas, or wood-fired, cater to specific materials and processes, each designed to optimize energy use and ensure quality in the finished items.
