Nitrogen-Based Post-Curing Technology Transforms Dental 3D Printing

Ackuretta has unveiled its latest innovation, the NFinity nitrogen generator. This cutting-edge device is set to revolutionise the post-curing process in dental 3D printing, offering unprecedented improvements in clarity, surface smoothness, and structural integrity of printed dental applications.

The Science Behind NFinity

At the heart of NFinity’s groundbreaking technology is its ability to create a near-oxygen-free environment within the curing chamber. By achieving 95% nitrogen purity, the device optimises UV light absorption during the curing process, eliminating the need for less controllable methods such as vacuum or glycerin submersion.

Dr. Emma Thompson, a leading dental technologist, explains: “The higher nitrogen concentration ensures even better light absorption, resulting in dental appliances with superior color transparency and smoothness.”

Measurable Improvements in Strength and Consistency

One of the most significant advantages of the NFinity system is the marked improvement in the mechanical properties of 3D printed dental applications. Users can expect up to a 25% increase in the strength and durability of items such as splints, crowns, and dentures.

Furthermore, the consistent 95% nitrogen environment guarantees uniform curing across all prints, addressing a long-standing challenge in the industry. “This level of consistency is a game-changer for dental professionals seeking reliable, high-quality results,” notes Dr. Thompson.

Streamlined Workflow and Enhanced Safety

The NFinity generator represents a significant step forward in terms of both efficiency and safety in dental practices and laboratories. By producing nitrogen on demand, it eliminates the need for cumbersome nitrogen tanks or potentially messy glycerin baths.

John Smith, a dental lab manager, commented: “The NFinity has seamlessly integrated into our workflow, making our post-curing process safer and more streamlined than ever before.”

Unlocking the Potential of Ackuretta’s FLOW Resins

The NFinity nitrogen generator is designed to work in tandem with Ackuretta’s CURIE Plus UV curing station, maximising the potential of the company’s certified FLOW resins. This synergy results in:

• Enhanced aesthetics for hard splint applications
• Increased mechanical properties for denture products
• Improved durability for long-term temporary restorations

As the dental industry continues its rapid digital transformation, innovations like the NFinity nitrogen generator are at the forefront of improving patient care and outcomes. By combining cutting-edge technology with user-centric design, Ackuretta aims to empower dental professionals to achieve results that were previously thought impossible.
