    CS6. It is a ® state-of-the art sinter, crystallization and glaze furnace for dental applications. The Programat CS6 is suitable for the sintering and glazing of zirconium oxide materials such as IPS e.max ZirCAD as well as ® the crystallization and glazing of e.g. IPS e.max CAD. The furnace has been specifically developed for these purposes.
  • Page 7: Indications

    Use the Programat CS6 exclusively for the sintering, crystallization or glazing of dental ceramic materials. Other uses than the ones stipulated, e.g. cooking of food, firing of other materials, etc., are contraindicated. The manufacturer does not assume any liability for damage resulting from misuse.
