Vacuum Forming Machine In Dentistry

Dental vacuum forming machines are essential, cost-effective, and compact laboratory devices used to fabricate customized dental appliances like retainers, bleach trays, splints, and mouthguards. They operate by heating thermoplastic sheets and using vacuum suction to conform them to a patient cast. High-quality, consistent results require stable suction and proper thermal management.

Key Features and Functionality

Purpose: Fabricates oral appliances such as retainers, bruxism splints, custom trays, temporary crowns, and mouthguards.
Components: Typically includes a heating element (often with a protective net), a frame to hold plastic sheets, a suction plate, a vacuum motor, and a control lever.
Material Compatibility: Works with various thermoplastic sheets, including round or square, of different thicknesses.
Heating System: Utilizes a symmetrical heating system for uniform softening of the material, preventing thin spots.
Operation: The process involves heating the plastic until it sags (about
inches), then bringing it down over a plaster model while the vacuum motor creates suction to seal the material tightly around the model.

Advantages

Efficiency: Rapid heating and strong, immediate vacuum suction.
Design: Compact, often designed to be placed on a benchtop in a dental office.
Versatility: Compatible with all standard dental thermoplastic materials.

Dental professionals and dental laboratories sometimes struggle finding vacuum formers that are built to last and produce accurate molds, a problem that pairaydental has been working to solve. Now, pairaydental offers the BIOART Dental Vacuum Forming Machine, whose are considered to be a dental professional’s first choice because of their unbeatable features and characteristics.

Pairaydental offers two models of Vacuum Forming Machine.

PlastVacP7

PLASTVAC-P7 BIO-ART multi-application equipment that, due to its easiness of use, has become indispensable in laboratories and odontological offices.

Pioneer in the Brazilian market, the Bio-Art vacuum forming machine has been manufactured since 1979. Being easy to use and its differentiated design, makes the vacuum forming machine the leader in the Brazilian market.

A powerful 1400W motor, it automatically generates the vacuum at the conformation instant. The Plastvac P7 does not need a special installation, since it is connected to the consulting / laboratory power grid.

Quick and practical, possibility the confection and delivery of sheets to the patient in a single session. On average the payback comes with the production of 30 sheets.

The Plastvac P7 has a universal adapter for round and square sheets of different dimensions, thicknesses and materials.

PlastPress

PLASTPRESS BIO-ART is a multi-application equipment that, due to its ease of use and handling, has become indispensable in laboratories and dental offices. There are many applications and new techniques are being developed every day, expanding the range of uses.

The most compact positive pressure machine on the market, the PlastPress assure greater accuracy in the forming process and lower noise compared to vacuum machines. Practical and versatile, it allows the sheets production of different materials up to 6mm thickness and accepts round and square shapes.

It must be connected directly to a compressor regulated at a pressure between 3 and 8 bar (43.5 to 116 psi).
