A lot of potters fire overnight, or leave the kiln running while they're out. With a standard controller, that means trusting that everything goes to plan — and finding out the next morning if it didn't. The KCR32C WiFi changes that.
Using Kilncare's GATEway platform, you can watch your firing progress in real time from any device with a browser. Temperature curve, current ramp segment, time remaining — all visible without being in the room. If something looks off, you can pause or stop the firing remotely. If you want to add soak time or adjust a ramp on the fly, you can do that too.
It's internally identical to the standard KCR32C — the same pre-set programmes, the same temperature accuracy, the same reliable control. The WiFi is simply added on top of everything the standard controller already does well. The built-in USB port also lets you load programmes directly from a PC and allows Kilncare to run diagnostics and apply updates remotely if needed.
Connect your kiln to Kilncare's GATEway platform over WiFi and view the live temperature curve, current programme segment, and estimated firing time from any browser — phone, tablet, or laptop. No app to install, no specialist software. Just log in and check.
More than just monitoring — you can actively control the firing remotely. Stop or pause the kiln, adjust programme parameters, or check in on a complex glaze schedule without being physically present. Useful any time you're running the kiln unattended for extended periods.
The built-in USB port lets you enter firing programmes directly from a PC — handy for complex custom schedules. It also enables Kilncare's team to apply firmware updates and run remote diagnostics without a callout, which can save significant time and cost if you ever need service support.
If you're buying a new IKON kiln and want the WiFi controller instead of the standard KCR32C, just let us know when you order — we'll swap it in. If you're upgrading an existing kiln, get in touch and we can confirm compatibility with your model before you order.
