10. Model preparation
When using hard or hard-elastic material, models are placed into the model cup
4
, filled up to its upper rim with stainless steel pellets. When us-
ing soft elastic material, models can be placed on the working platform
6
.In both cases, the model should be placed with the incisors facing to the
right towards the locking handle
3
or to the left towards the pressure chamber
2
to ensure equal thickness of the material between the quadrants.
11. Scanning/programming by setting code or time
Our pressure moulding material has a 3-digit-code where all required information on temperature, heating time and cooling time is programmed. This
code is printed in plain text and as bar code on our pressure moulding blanks or foils, except for material with thicknesses below 0.1 and 0.15 mm.
After selecting your material, press the button
„code/scan“
.
The scanner
P
is now activated. Present only now the bar code of the chosen material to the scanner until you hear a beep. Alternatively, the code
can be programmed manually.
Program the digits and confirm by pressing the button „code/scan“ again. You either have the option to enter the heating times manually. Doing so,
press the key with the clock symbol
Q
, enter the required heating time and confirm by pressing the button
Q
again.
12. Heating
After programming, directly swivel the infrared heater
1
over the fixed material. The temperature is regulated automatically by a thermo element.
The colour of the heater might vary from bright to dark.
13. Pressurising
Before the end of the heating cycle is reached, audible beeping sounds are heard (+ 5 sec. up to 0 sec. = beeping sounds/ 0 sec. up to 5 sec. con-
tinuous beeping sound).The heater should be swivelled back at 0 sec. , at -5 sec. the heater is switched off automatically for safety reasons. Bring
the pressure chamber
2
over the model by turning it 180° to the right
(make sure the sealing surface is clean)
and lock it into place by turning
the locking handle
C
180° forwards. Automatically the magnetic valve opens, the pressure chamber fills with air and the cooling time starts, signal
by blue LED.
14. Depressurising
Optical signals (blue flashing LED) and acoustic signals (4 beeping sounds) indicate the cooling time has elapsed. Press the flashing button
„air“
to de-
pressurise the pressure chamber. After approx. 3 seconds 4 beeping sounds indicate the end of depressurising. Now turn the locking handle
3
180°
backwards, push the locking ring
K
to the left and open the pressure chamber
2
. Remove the model. The machine can now be used for
the next pressure moulding operation.
15. Special programs using the heating support
If you want to fabricate positioners, mouth guards or splints, you can manually programme time intervals of 60/120/180/240 seconds. Doing so, the
pressure chamber has to be closed and the locking handle opened. These intervals are chosen to heat up or to seal the occlusal surfaces using the
heating support. (REF 3452). After having entered the corresponding heating time, the infra red heater with the heating support hooked in is swivelled
forwards in the heating position. Depending on the material thickness, this operation can be repeated several times.
16. Service/Maintenance
The BIOSTAR
®
machine is maintenance free. However, the air tube including the filter element should be examined regularly. If moisture or debris
is released, the filter must be replaced. The model cup
4
with air holes and model platform
6
can be cleaned with an air nozzle or steam jet. The
reflecting parts of the pressure chamber should be cleaned regularly to obtain the best heating results. For cleaning remove the aluminium adjusting
ring
L
from the pressure chamber
2
completely. The sealing surfaces, the sealing ring and the 4 rivets and springs should be cleaned and lightly
greased also. Place the adjusting ring back on the rivets and springs ensuring that the sealing ring comes to the top and that the whole unit is movable.
Please also refer to the enclosed „Guideline to solve technical problems“.
17. Service updates
You‘ll receive a registration card with the machine. By signing-up, you‘ll be provided automatically with information on updates. You can download the
updates on our website
www.scheu-dental.com/downloads/support
.
Extract the file to an empty and formatted removable USB device. Connect the USB device to the the
service interface
S
on the back of the machine.
Start the machine, then press 5 times the
button „OK“
. Now you‘ll be asked to enter the pass word for the service menu.
Enter the
figure „1“
and confirm by pressing the
button „OK
“. By pressing agin the
figure „1”
the update starts. After the update is finished, quit
the service menu by pressing the
button „CE+home“
.
Technical modification, which serve for improvement, are subject to our agreement. Reproduction, even in extracts, is only allowed with our written approval.
