Ivoclar Vivadent Programat
IVOCLAR VIVADENT PROGRAMAT EP 5010 is designed to set a new benchmark in pressing technology.
The enhanced QTK2 muffle together with the SiC bottom reflector reportedly ensures optimum temperature distribution. The investment ring warms up evenly and efficiently, which leads to quality press and firing results.
Ivoclar Vivadent Programat EP 5010 also features an Automatic Infrared Monitoring (AIM™) system, which measures the exact temperature at the surface of the fired object and the investment ring. In case the investment ring is preheated insufficiently, a warning is automatically displayed. If the infrared technology feature is activated, the thermal imaging camera regulates the predrying and closing process. This technology is said to increase the convenience and process reliability of press and firing procedures.
With large 7 inch colour touch screen and membrane keyboard. An integrated thermographic camera automatically identifies the size of the inserted press flask, controls the temperature and adjusts the pressing process if required or warns if the press flask is too cold. If the unit is used as a firing furnace, the camera automatically controls the closing and pre-drying process. Apart from the already installed Ivoclar Vivadent programs another 500 individual programs and 20 press programs are available.

With innovative Programat infrared technology, large 7 inch colour touch display and membrane keypad. An integrated infrared heat image camera measures the temperature directly on the surface of the fired objects or the press muffle. With the temperature control of the pre-heated press muffle, pre-heating furnace and press furnace can be optimally adjusted to each other. In case the press muffle is insufficiently pre-heated an automatic warning will be activated. If the unit is used as a firing furnace the camera will automatically control the locking and pre-drying process. Apart from a variety of Ivoclar Vivadent programs adjusted to materials like IPS e.max Press, IPS Empress and IPS InLine PoM another 500 individual firing programs and 20 individual press programs are available.
Programat EP 5010
The Programat EP 5010 combines high-tech and modern design in a very efficient and user-friendly furnace. In addition, the Programat EP 5010 is optimally coordinated with Ivoclar Vivadent press ceramic materials such as IPS e.max Press.
The Programat EP 5010 is a premium combination furnace of the latest generation of the Programat series and may be used as both a press and a ceramic furnace. This highly innovative, efficient and user-friendly furnace model optimally combines sophisticated design and advanced technology.
The Programat EP 5010 features an integrated thermal imaging camera. The Programat Infrared Technology measures the exact temperature at the surface of the fired object or the investment ring. By means of the temperature control of the preheated investment ring, the preheating furnace and the press furnace can be optimally coordinated with each other. If the investment ring is preheated insufficiently, a warning is automatically displayed. If the furnace is used in the firing mode, the camera automatically controls the closing and predrying process. Thus, the integrated infrared technology provides a wealth of new possibilities which increase the furnace’s user-friendliness, process reliability and efficiency.
The Programat EP 5010 can be intuitively operated by means of the large 7-inch colour touch screen and the proven membrane-sealed keypad. In addition to the many Ivoclar Vivadent programs, which are specially coordinated with materials such as IPS e.max Press, the furnace features 500 individual firing programs and 20 individual press programs.
The new QTK2 heating muffle in combination with the SiC bottom reflector ensures homogeneous heat distribution in the firing chamber. As a result, the investment ring is preheated more evenly and reliably. Furthermore, these features enable the user to press difficult-to-press objects, e.g. with very thin marginal areas, and to achieve even higher quality results.
The electronic press drive with force sensor ensures the precise control of the press plunger in the micrometre range. The integrated Crack Detection System (CDS) immediately interrupts the press process if a crack in the investment ring occurs. Therefore, restorations are optimally protected.
As of software version V4.0, the furnaces are equipped with the FPF function, or Fully automatic Press Function. This means that the operator only has to place the investment ring into the press chamber and press the start key. The unit will take care of the rest fully automatically. The new FPF technology significantly simplifies the proven press process. In addition, it increases the reliability of the system and heightens the efficiency of the laboratory. Excellent press results are achieved in no time at all.
The new DSA function for digital shade matching has been integrated into the furnaces as of software version V5.0 (only in new units ex-factory). Special image processing software automatically recognizes the tooth to be analyzed and the three shade guide samples on the DSA image. The shade sample that best matches that of the analyzed tooth is shown on the tooth. In this way, the tooth shade is determined in next to no time.
