A drawing furnace for drawing a glass element includes: a furnace body having an upper end and a lower end. The furnace body includes a top annular plate, an A/C induction coil capable of accepting electrical current and producing an oscillating electronic signal, a cylindrical susceptor capable of producing heat output, a cylindrical quartz beaker, an insulating material disposed between the susceptor and the beaker, and a bottom annular plate housing and supporting at least one of the susceptor, the beaker, and the insulating material. wherein the furnace body comprises a central longitudinal axis; A rotational drive system operably connected to the bottom annular plate by an annular rotation gear system rotates the bottom annular plate along with the susceptor, beaker, and/or insulating material at a frequency between 0.01 to 10 Hz. The electrical current and oscillation frequency determine the heat output of the susceptor.
