WaveSinter - Microwave Furnace
​The WAVESINTER offers a high-efficiency microwave sintering solution that achieves flawless, crack-free full-bridge results in a rapid 2:25 cycle (excluding cooling time).
Its advanced thermal control enables a stabilizer-free workflow, eliminating the need for support structures to save on both material and labor. Designed for precision, it delivers perfect shade accuracy without shifting across all commercially available zirconia, removing the need for specialized "fast-sinter" blocks. This system significantly reduces overhead through energy-efficient operation and heating elements that cost 50% less to replace than conventional wire heaters, all while ensuring a secure lab environment with dual-detection safety sensors and electromagnetic shielding.

WaveSinter - Frequently Asked Questions:
QUESTION |
ANSWER |
What is WAVESINTER, and how does microwave sintering differ from traditional furnaces? |
WAVESINTER is a high-efficiency microwave zirconia sintering furnace. Traditional furnaces rely on external resistance elements (like MoSi₂ heating wires) to heat the restoration from the outside in. WAVESINTER uses hybrid microwave technology—heating the inside of the zirconia via microwave agitation while SiC susceptors heat the outside. This dual heating eliminates thermal lag and ensures uniform temperature distribution throughout the restoration. |
Do I need specialized or proprietary "fast-sinter" zirconia blocks? |
No. WAVESINTER is universally compatible with all standard third-party zirconia blocks, discs, and shade systems available on the market. Because heat distribution is uniform, dedicated blocks are completely unnecessary. |
How fast can WAVESINTER sinter a full-arch bridge? |
Full-arch bridges can complete sintering in 2 hours and 25 minutes (active heating cycle). Total cycle time from start to finish, including cooling, takes approximately 3 hours and 54 minutes. |
Why are stabilizer supports no longer required for full bridges? |
Thermal gradient differences across a large bridge cause warping, cracking, or tilting during rapid sintering, which usually requires a stabilizer bar. WAVESINTER minimizes internal and external temperature differentials so effectively that full bridges can be sintered without stabilizers. This reduces CAD/CAM milling time, saves raw zirconia material, and extends the life of your milling burs. |
Will fast sintering affect shade accuracy or translucency? |
Not at all. WAVESINTER delivers exact shade vitality, chroma, and natural translucency matching international lab standards, even on rapid 2:25 cycles. |
How does WAVESINTER lower overall operating costs? |
|
Is microwave energy safe to operate in a dental laboratory? |
Yes. WAVESINTER is engineered with structural electromagnetic wave shielding to prevent any radiation leakage, protecting both laboratory personnel and surrounding electronic equipment. It also features active dual safety sensors and internal diagnostics that monitor temperature and system components in real time. |
