Dental Technology Solutions

In dental treatment units, valves and pressure regulators from KENDRION are used to switch air and water with some hydrogen peroxide. Proportional valves, on the other hand, are particularly well suited to precisely control or regulate the flow of air and water in the dentist element. Particular attention is paid to the choice of materials.

The latter also plays an important role in the direct-controlled fluid isolation valves when it comes to switching sophisticated media (e.g. chlorine dioxide) safely in dental technology. The solenoid coil and the medium to be switched are fluidly and thermally safely isolated from each other and allow large flows with the lowest electrical power consumption.

In addition, KENDRION supplies compact, integrated modules that combine different technologies and are particularly quiet. A pneumatic seat cushion control for treatment units, for example, increases patient comfort through a massage function or serves as a lumbar support. Precise pressure control and a compact design make this system solution an innovative product for dental technology.

For a program-controlled care system for the cleaning and lubrication of up to four straight and contra angle hand pieces and turbine instruments simultaneously in one care sequence.

Simple operation by just pressing the start button combined with the automatic control and care agent dosage guarantees highest care efficiency. Instrument quality can thus be conserved while operator errors during care are eliminated.

Our solution:

The KENDRION 6-fold valve block supplies the control valves needed for the inflow and discharge of water and disinfectant during cleaning.

Your benefits:

Special circuit

According to DVGW regulations, treatment units in the field of dental technology need to be physically de-coupled from the public drinking water supply. In order to produce the required operating pressure for both instruments and the spittoon, an internal pressure supply is required.

Our solution:

In this application, the piston pump is pneumatically powered by the pump control, which reciprocally supplies pressure to the piston. The required commands are determined dynamically by the system electronics and processed by the control unit.

Your benefits:

Low-noise switching
Complete function group for direct integration

To increase patient comfort, treatment units in the field of dental technology offer a variety of innovative solutions.

Our Solution:

Especially during longer treatment sessions, the physical comfort considerably contributes to the overall well-being of the patient. This custom designed unit is available with active lumbar support and a massage function. For this purpose, two air chambers inside the back rest of the unit are inflated and deflated reciprocally.

Comfortable massaging is accomplished by respective adjustment of the inflation and deflation cycles.

Your Benefits:

Compact design
Precise pressure control
Exceptionally quiet for superior patient comfort

Efficient and space-saving valves and valve blocks for controlling air, water as well as spray and propellant air are required for dental treatment units.

Our solution:

Kendrion offers compact valves and valve blocks that meet the high demands for durability and precision in medical technology.

Your benefits:

Pressure range 0 to 3.5 bar, pressure resistant up to 8.4 bar (others on request)
Compact 10mm design with flange connection

In dental technology, patient safety is the top priority. Reliability and high performance of the instruments are essential.

Our solution:

Precise and reliable air control of dental turbines with our 15 mm proportional valve. Thanks to the standardized flange pattern, the valve can be easily integrated into existing customer applications, even where space is limited. Nominal diameters > 2 mm ensure the necessary air volume and a low pressure drop, to operate the air turbine reproducibly and reliably over the entire speed range.

Your benefits:

Control via PWM or constant current possible as well as Dithering
Nominal diameters from 1.3 to 2.5 mm& various sealing materials NBR, FKM and EPDM

In combination with KNF‘s leading pump technology, we offer a comprehensive portfolio for the dental sector.

Our solution:
The portfolio ranges from Pressure Regulators to keep the water and air pressure in mobile treatment units constant, to Series 63 Valves that enable trouble-free use even with disinfecting hydrogen peroxide. Proportional Valves provide precise air control in drilling turbines. Fluid Isolation Valves are used for the efficient switching of of water or hygienic treatment.
