The Skutt Oval was designed with 3 main objectives in mind.

1. Make it powerful enough to handle heavy loads.  
2. Make it durable enough to withstand the rigorous demands of 
   high volume production
3. Make it easy to operate and maintain.  

Powerful: 
At 23,600 Watts the KM1627 Oval is one of the most powerful kilns on the market giving you the freedom to fire as fast or slow as you want to Cone 10 temperatures.

Durability: 
Due to their enormous spans oval kilns have a history of cracking lids and slabs.  Skutt solved this problem by introducing the first fiber lid oval kiln with a fiber insert in the base.  The electrical components and wiring are industrial quality to minimize downtimes and boost performance.

Ease: 
The light fiber lid coupled with our innovative lid brace design make opening and closing the kiln a one handed operation.  The touch pad has been moved higher for easy access to programming.  Like all Skutt kilns, the new ovals are sectional making them easy to move, repair and disassemble for loading large pieces.  The entire kiln can be assembled and disassembled in less than 10 minutes using only a screwdriver.  Our new Bus bar element connection design makes changing elements a breeze.  

Features: 
KilnMaster controller with zone control, Rigid Fiber Lid, One-Hand lid prop design, Fiber slab insert, 12 leg stand with support plate, sectional design, 3 encapsulated Type K Thermocouples, 4 handles per section, mercury relays, Bus bar element connection, industrial gauge wiring.
