This oven also has a few available options: a touch screen controller upgrade with WiFi and a stainless steel chamber upgrade.
Our two ovens have both of these upgrades. This oven is also available single phase or three phase. We chose single phase. Each oven has a breaker and on/off switch.
Demo
The first step is to specify a recipe on the touch screen. I set the oven for 15 minutes of what I call “ramp-up” time at 250℉ and over two hours of cure time. With the recipe set, I pressed “run” and started Cerakoting a MDT ACC chassis in a Built American spray booth.
After the ramp up time was complete, I hung the chassis inside and let it cure for just over two hours.
Besides the space, one of the things I’m most excited about with my new ovens is the remote monitoring and control capabilities.
This allows me to shut off the oven from a different location as well as see what’s going on — a handy safety feature if you can’t be by your oven all day! This is done via Wi-Fi network or over the cloud.
Conclusion
These USA-made ovens offer professional quality at an affordable price with added peace of mind and convenient features.
Stay tuned for a tour of the new Cerakote shop at Precision Rifle Concepts and more fun projects!
