3. Collect Information

Once the new drying schedule has been developed and the actual drying process initiated it is very important to collect information for later study in order to evaluate the result (good or bad). If you do not already have computerized controllers with data collection capability (and preferably networkable to a central computer), your best option is to invest in one.

The old style kiln controllers with circular graphs can tell you many things and was very valuable before the recent development in information technology; however, they generally fall short when compared to the information gathering of networked and computerized kiln controllers available from several kiln controller manufacturers.

In addition, the kiln control system you invest in (or maybe already have) should make it easy to share the collected information with others. Our software allows you to easily email this information to any person, thereby allowing you maximum access to the kiln drying knowledge. Maximum sharing ability can help you obtain the best possible help and opinions from any person with kiln drying knowledge. This person could be a consultant, a university professor, or a friend, who has experience similar problems or faced similar challenges.
