Kolkata, West Bengal
Shrinitha Scientific is a muffle furnace manufacturer supplying laboratories and industries across Kolkata. Every furnace is built at our own manufacturing unit in Vasai East, Maharashtra, tested before dispatch, and delivered to Kolkata with installation guidance and spares support.
Kolkata has a long tradition of materials research at CSIR-CGCRI, IACS and Jadavpur University, a large foundry and engineering belt in Howrah, the Haldia petrochemical complex, and busy gold jewellery and assaying markets. Many of them need a reliable muffle furnace for ashing, loss on ignition, calcination, sintering and heat treatment. We supply 1200°C, 1700°C and 1800°C muffle furnaces with digital PID or programmable controllers, built to the chamber size and heating cycle your work needs.
A muffle furnace is an electrically heated, insulated chamber furnace in which the sample is heated without coming into contact with the heating elements or combustion products. That isolation gives clean, uniform and repeatable heating — which is why it is the standard instrument for ash determination, loss on ignition and high-temperature sample preparation.

Kanthal-wire heated. The everyday choice for ashing, loss on ignition, drying and routine QC.

MoSi2 heating elements for sintering, ceramic firing and high-temperature material research.

Top-end MoSi2 model for advanced ceramics, zirconia and alumina sintering and R&D work.
Prices shown are starting prices for the base configuration, ex-works Vasai, excluding GST. Final price depends on chamber size, controller and options. Each furnace is made to order and dispatched in 7–21 working days; delivery to Kolkata takes 5–8 days and is included in the quote. As furnaces are custom-built, returns are not accepted; manufacturing defects are covered under our service support.
Sintering, firing trials and glass annealing at CGCRI and Jadavpur.
Calcination, sintering, annealing and teaching labs at IACS and city universities.
Sand and core LOI tests and heat treatment of casting samples in Howrah.
Fire-assay cupellation at assaying and hallmarking centres in Bowbazar.
Ash content of fuels, lubricants and spent catalysts at Haldia.
Heat treatment of test pieces, scaling and oxidation tests in Taratala and Garden Reach.

We recommend a model or custom design and send a technical offer.
Built at our Vasai works and tested before dispatch — you can attend the test.
Safely packed and delivered to your lab or plant, with installation guidance.
Yes. Shrinitha Scientific manufactures muffle furnaces at its own works in Vasai East, Palghar, and supplies them across Kolkata and its industrial areas, including Jadavpur, Salt Lake & New Town, Howrah and Dankuni & Uluberia.
Muffle furnaces are offered in models up to 1200°C, 1700°C and 1800°C. Up to 1200°C models use Kanthal resistance wire, while 1700°C and 1800°C models use molybdenum disilicide (MoSi2) heating elements.
Yes. You are welcome to visit our works at Vasai East, Palghar, and see your furnace tested before it is packed and dispatched by road to Kolkata.
For ceramic body and glaze trials, a 1200°C muffle furnace is often sufficient. Alumina and zirconia sintering needs a 1700°C or 1800°C model with MoSi2 heating elements.
Yes. Chamber dimensions, maximum temperature, controller type, door arrangement and power supply (230 V or 415 V) can be customised to suit your application.
