MINI-PRO HAS ARRIVED!

NOW IN PRODUCTION!

Below- Type A-2, 4 metre long kiln unit.

A type A-3, 6.21 metres long holds a load of 14 cubic metres of stripped lumber and priced at similar cost to inferior and smaller sea container type kilns.

The most advanced and most effective solar powered kiln on this planet! -Technology that does not need supplementary heaters to dry fast- even in cool environments and locations.

Above- Type A-2 Mini Pro kiln system

Above- The smartest kiln control package in the universe!

Kiln Features:

  • 3 Times larger solar collector area per capacity ratio of our previous highly successful and energy efficient solar kiln technology
  • Greatly improved generation 5 solar air heating and circulation system- delivering up to 25 times more heat to the process than some other commercially available solarkiln types.
  • Quick and safe roll-on, roll-off loading.
  • Powerful solar collecting end walls
  • Patented cyclic control system features
  • Patented Generation 5 solar air-heating features
    • 12-volt opposing fan solar circulation and insulation system. (no ducts or vents at all associated with solar heating.
    • Permanent trickle charger and battery back up to maintain solar circulation during power failures.
  • Entire type A-3 system with capacity 14 M3 runs on approximately 0.6 kw of power.
    • Option to run off the smallest generator set.
  • Packs into a small crate for international shipping or transport to new locations.
  • Plastic cover replacement approx cost $250 every 4-5 years
    • Cheaper than maintaining conventional cladding systems.
  • Triple skin fully automated multi-function insulation system
  • Excellent automated control of over-temperature situations
  • Built-in Weather station to enable unique energy management features
    • Solar Banking- Uses sophisticated controls and operator settings to store surplus heat in the stack for the next rainy day
    • Smart Venting- Constantly calculates ambient and kiln absolute humidity and automatically governs venting during excessively high ambient humidity periods
    • Cloud stall. (Solar heat circulation shuts down automatically when a side is in shade or a cloud passes over- then resumes when the sun returns.
  • Comprehensive excel-format data logging- for technical support, quality assurance, process optimization and general peace of mind.
  • Variable speed circulation fans
