Introduction
New SNOL series furnaces from TMS Europe have been added. The Fibre Muffle 1100 series from TMS Europe are a range of precision laboratory electric muffle furnaces, with a counter balanced lift-up door, for use up to 1100°C. They are designed for materials testing, heat treatment, ceramic and stoneware samples firing and ashing (models with chimney). And are used in laboratories, educational institutions, ceramic studios and in industry for thermal processing. The chamber is made of high thermal efficiency vacuum-formed ceramic fibre, with heating elements embedded in four sides and a ceramic tile to protect the fibre base from wear.

Features and benefits
- Lift-up door for efficient use of work space and better safety
- Good stability and uniformity
- Fast heating and cooling time due to low thermal mass construction
- Low power consumption for reduced running costs and energy savings
