4.5.2. Reciprocal function
General:
An Endo instrument is set into a cyclic right-left movement with the reciprocal technique. The
user rhythmically pulls the instrument out of the canal to remove chips. The advantage of this
technique is the significant saving of time.
Settings:
Under the
File systems
overview, the device offers the
Reciprocal
file system (see
chapter 4.1). It is suitable for file systems that are to be operated in reciprocal mode. By using
the setup menu, the user can check the pre-set values.
Select the function in the File Setup menu of the file under
Movement
.
The parameters are set using the
-
or
+
button and
saved with
Save
.
During your work, please ensure a constant removal of
chips.
Remark:
The torque is also monitored in this operating mode.
However, since this technique does not have a distinct
start-up phase when the motor is started, the torque control can already be triggered at high
speed settings when the motor is started. In this case, a higher torque limit should be set.
The cyclic drive.
This function provides a step-by-step drive in the direction of rotation. To configure this
function, a
Left
or
Right
parameter is set to zero. The other parameter indicates the length
of the step. The pause between the movements allows the instrument to partially reset the
torsion.
