Auralis SinterFornax Thermalis — the thermal furnace

The firing line of the digital lab. High-speed and standard furnaces built around one curve of heat — high-purity MoSi₂ elements climbing at up to 200 °C per minute, holding the peak to ±1 °C — so a milled white body becomes a dense ceramic restoration in a total cycle of as little as 40 minutes for light loads.

The Firing Line

Three furnaces, one curve of heat

Every Auralis Sinter furnace belongs to one of three tiers. Choose by what you fire most — zirconia at full speed, zirconia at full volume, or glass ceramic under vacuum.

Tier II — Standard

Sinter Standard

Elevator sintering

The volume tier. An elevator chamber that holds ±1 °C across double-stacked trays, running 24 programs day and night — the quiet workhorse of the high-volume lab.

Max temperature1560 °C
Control accuracy±1 °C
Programs24
Power≤ 2 kW
Weight50 kg
Tier III — Porcelain

Sinter Porcelain

Porcelain & glaze firing

The glass tier. A high-purity quartz muffle under vacuum below 35 mmHg, with two-stage programs for crystallization, staining and glaze — where lithium disilicate gets its final shine.

Max temperature1200 °C
Final vacuum< 35 mmHg

Firing Curves

Heat rises, time falls

One line covers the full firing spectrum of the digital lab — glass-ceramic crystallization at 840 °C, conventional zirconia sintering between 1450 and 1530 °C, and a 40-minute total flash cycle at 1530 °C for light loads. Choose the furnace by the curve you run most.
