Always monitor the firing process accurately

M.E.SCHUPP® PTCR® ring is a ceramic device that permit measurement of heat input during the firing cycle. The principal applications are: 

  • process control and optimization
  • troubleshooting and problem solving
  • increased efficiency
  • product quality improvement
  • reduction of QS costs
  • quality assurance

PTCR®

The ceramic PTCR® rings measure and accurately reflect total heat input.

Thanks to advanced technology and the use of high-quality materials, the PTCR® can record the actual firing process at the location where it is positioned in the furnace. The measurement result tolerance is ± 3°C or less. Use of the PTCR® enables determination of temperature distribution, both in a furnace and between different cycles, thereby guaranteeing a sustainable and assured quality standard.
