5.6 Adjustable parameters in the IRT menu
If the infrared technology is activated, the temperature is measured directly on the surface of the object during the predrying
or closing process. The furnace regulates the closing and predrying process based on the data measured by the infrared
camera.
Homogeneous drying and heating of the object is ensured by the heating of the heating muffle and the furnace head
movements (furnace head opens and closes depending on the situation).
Different operating modes are available for the IRT function. These modes can be selected by pressing the [IRT] button:
IRT
The IRT operating mode is the preferred and recommended operating mode for standard veneer and all-
ceramic firing processes.
If the IRT operating mode is selected, the infrared camera controls the predrying and closing process in
such a way that the processes are performed very quickly and efficiently. The time saving compared to
conventional predrying and closing processes amounts up to 20%.
IRT Plus
If the IRT Plus operating mode is selected, the infrared camera controls the predrying and closing process
with a reduced drying rate. As a result, predrying and closing takes longer.
The IRT Plus operating mode is recommended for opaquer firing cycles and large restorations.
IRT Off
If the IRT Off mode is selected, the infrared camera is deactivated. Predrying and closing processes are
performed as usual, e.g. by manually entering the closing time.
