3M ESPE Introduces Improved Speed and Efficiency in Automatic Mixing

Next generation Pentamix™ 3 Automatic Mixing Unit offers improved handling at twice the speed

ST. PAUL, Minn. – (Feb. 21, 2008) – 3M ESPE announces the introduction of the Pentamix™ 3 Mixing Unit, the latest state-of-the-art automatic mixing unit, featuring faster speeds and a smaller footprint than any other automatic mixing and dispensing system in the industry. Boasting twice the speed of the Pentamix™ 2 Automatic Mixing Unit, the Pentamix 3 mixing unit offers the ability to utilize a broad range of material viscosities, especially quick setting materials, and consistently provides homogenous, void-free automatic mixing at the touch of a button.
“The Pentamix 3 mixing unit enables dentists and assistants to achieve a consistent high-standard of care and accuracy,” said Sean Regan, market development supervisor, 3M ESPE. “A faster mix allows for increased working time and less distortion of the impression, reducing stress and benefiting everyone from patients to the dental and lab professionals.”
The new high-tech design and easy-to-use features of the Pentamix 3 mixing unit ensure accurate dispensing of the materials and comfortable handling for users. New PentaTM cartridges for Pentamix 3 mixing unit feature product names, working times and setting times printed on the cartridge lever for clear visibility when the device cover is closed, reducing the potential for error and waste. With a more compact, streamlined design, the Pentamix 3 mixing unit requires less valuable counter space than other automatic mixing units, and may be wall-mounted.
