The powder coating oven requires precise control on both temperature and time, the typical process would be hold the temperature and a set value for a certain period of time, the conventional solution would be using two control device , one is a temperature controller and the other one is a timer. At Maxwell, we have a temperature controller with built-in timer, the temperature can be controlled at a preset value and the timer can be programmed to engaged when temperature reach to set value and holding the temperature at certain period of time, when the time elapsed, the burner will be turned off. our model FT20X is a perfect solution for the oven. when the coating process finished, operator can hear a buzzer goes off to sort of notify the process is finished.

A Deep Dive into Kiln Controllers Introduction We are a PID temperature controller supplier in China, one of our kiln controller rolled out early of 2023 is very popular on the market and we are the first factory to introduce this kind of controller in China. Today we are going to dig deep into kiln controllers and beyond In the world of ceramics, pottery, and even certain industrial processes, the kiln plays a pivotal role in transforming raw materials into beautifully crafted and durable products. The key to achieving consistent and precise results lies in the heart of the kiln – its controller. In this blog, we'll explore the significance of kiln controllers, their functionalities, and how they contribute to achieving the perfect firing process. Understanding Kiln Controllers A kiln controller is essentially the brain of the kiln. It is a sophisticated device designed to regulate the temperature, humidity, and other crucial factors during the firing process. Whether you...
ARAMP and Soak PID Controller is a specialized feedback control system designed to manage processes that require gradual changes (ramps) in a setpoint followed by stabilization periods (soaking). Unlike standard PID controllers that maintain a fixed setpoint, this controller dynamically adjusts the setpoint according to a predefined profile, ensuring smooth transitions between phases. Common in industries such as thermal processing, chemical manufacturing, and ceramics, it prevents system stress and improves process stability. Our MPU90 Series ramp and soak controller is a perfect choice. It has 0–25% FS accuracy and comes with PC software that records process values, setup values, and alarm events. Key Features of a Good Ramp and Soak PID Controller: Accurate Setpoint Tracking: Accurately follows programmed ramp rates and soak durations, minimizing deviations even during dynamic changes. Smooth Transitions:Seamless changes between ramp and soak phases without abrupt outpu...
How to choose proper SCR power regulator according to your application ? SCR power regulator is heavily used in industrial application particularly heating application, to choose proper SCR, several key factors needs to be take into consideration. 1)first thing first, figure out your source whether it is single phase or three phase, the single phase SCR is for single phase source, 3 phase SCR is for 3 phase source, like 3 phase 4 wires, 3 phase 3 wires etc. if the load is single phase, the process is quite simple, make sure you select a SCR with the current rating 2 times higher of the actual load. for example, if you have a heater with 20 amps and 240Vac load, the proper SCR would be 40 amps and 240~480Vac load2)PIDMaxwell SCR power regulator only works for resistive load, make sure your load is resistive load like a heater, electric heater, infrared heater etc3)Identify your source, the source would be 3 phase 380V 4 wires source, like in China, or 3 phase 4 wire 400V in german...
When selecting a three-phase power regulator, many customers focus first on total power—asking, "What size do I need?" based on the equipment's actual load wattage. While this approach isn't wrong, power rating alone isn't enough; we also need to consider voltage, current per phase, load type, the temperature controller's output signal, and the electrical cabinet's heat dissipation conditions. First, distinguish between single-phase and three-phase systems. Use a single-phase power regulator for 220V single-phase heating elements, but for 380V three-phase heating equipment—such as ovens, electric furnaces, heat treatment furnaces, or drying equipment—we must use a three-phase power regulator. Even if the total power is low, if the load is wired in a three-phase configuration, we cannot simply choose a single-phase unit for convenience; you must calculate the current based on three-phase requirements. The key factor is the current per phase. For instance, with a 380V, ...
In the daily operation of industrial heating equipment, almost every field engineer has encountered this scenario: the moment the start button is pressed, the circuit breaker in the power distribution cabinet trips immediately—the equipment "goes on strike" before it even begins to work. This happens frequently, especially when the equipment is starting from a cold state: the ammeter needle swings violently to the maximum, a dull "hum" might be heard from the contactor, and then everything goes dead. Faced with this predicament, many people’s first reaction is to suspect the circuit breaker is undersized, complain about unstable grid voltage, or blame the power regulator itself. However, seasoned veterans will tell you that the real culprit behind these frequent trips often lies in the massive inrush current that occurs the moment startup begins. To understand this phenomenon, one must look at the physical properties of electric heating elements. Whether it is common resist...
