Zirconium synthesis furnaces - choose the best model for your prosthetic laboratory
Zirconium is a material with excellent aesthetic and mechanical properties, which is increasingly used in dental prosthetics. To obtain the maximum benefit from the use of zirconium, it is necessary to use an appropriate synthesizing furnace.
How does a zirconium sintering furnace work?
Zirconium sintering furnaces use a sintering process at high temperature (approx. 1550°C). During the sintering process, zirconium oxide particles combine with each other, creating a compact and durable structure.
What types of zirconium sintering furnaces are there?
Zirconium sintering furnaces can be divided into two main types:
- Conventional furnaces - use traditional heat sources, such as electric heaters or gas burners. Conventional ovens are less efficient than microwave ovens, but they are cheaper.
- Microwave ovens -- use radio waves to heat material. Microwave ovens are more efficient than conventional ovens and ensure a more even temperature distribution throughout the prosthetic work.
How to choose a zirconium sintering furnace?
When selecting a zirconium sintering furnace, the following factors should be considered:
- Type of material - zirconium sintering furnaces are designed to work with various types of zirconium oxide. You should choose a furnace that is suitable for the type of material from which prosthetic works will be made.
- Power - the power of the furnace determines how quickly it can reach the required temperature. Furnaces with higher power are more efficient and allow you to perform prosthetic work faster.
- Chamber size - the size of the furnace chamber determines how large prosthetic works can be sintered in it.
- Additional functions** - some zirconium sintering furnaces have additional functions, such as real-time temperature control or automatic cooling function.

MICRO WAVES zirconium sintering furnace
NEW - Microwaves in zirconium oxide sintering.
Main advantages compared to conventional sintering furnaces:
- The total sintering time is approximately 4 hours
- Sintering time up to 1550 ºC: 110 min.
- Cooling to 300 ºC: 130 min.
Unlike conventional sintering units - where heat passes from the outside of the structure to the inside - in a microwave oven, heat is generated at all points in the structure, so the temperature is achieved more evenly. The resulting structure is cleaner, more durable and precise because there are no drafts during heating.
Zirconium is an excellent heat-resistant material. In a traditional oven, heating must be done gradually, observing levels, so that the temperature is evenly distributed throughout the prosthesis. Hence the long duration of sintering programs.
By using a microwave device, you will save on maintenance due to lower power, fewer components and smaller size.

Tabeo-1/M/Zirkon-100 zirconium sintering furnace
The Tabeo zirconium sintering furnace offers high-quality technology at a good price.
The TABEO series model variants are ideal for complementing smaller CAD/CAM systems or for expanding existing sintering furnaces.
Their respective capacities range from one sintering tray Ø= 100mm to three sintering trays Ø= 120mm. Your sintering program can be easily entered and saved in the program controller, which is adapted to the TABEO series. Pre-set service programs support you with simple maintenance and cleaning of heating systems.
TABEO offers the possibility of deciding on the use of heating systems with heating elements made of MoSi2 or SiC. Both systems are designed for conventional, long-term sintering. Heating elements made of molybdenum disilicide (MoSi2) provide a maximum furnace temperature of 1650°C. Thanks to predefined service programs, dirt on heating elements can be regenerated.

Ferro Ring PTCR HTH for temperature control of the sintering process 1 piece
PTCR-HTH 1450 – 1750 °C
Firing temperature control rings are highly accurate ceramic elements that indicate the actual amount of heat that has been absorbed during the firing process. The sintering process causes the ring to shrink.
The shrinking process continues as long as the maximum temperature is maintained in the oven.
The amount of shrinkage – the amount by which the ring's diameter has decreased – is measured with a numerical or digital micrometer.
- It is recommended to place the rings in multiple locations and at different levels of the kiln as this provides the greatest control over the temperature distribution inside the kiln.
The amount of ring shrinkage corresponds to the amount of heat absorbed at the point in the furnace where the ring was placed. The diameter can be easily measured using a micrometer.
The letter “T” impressed on the ring should be positioned exactly in the notch (measuring notch) of the micrometer.
Both numerical and digital micrometers have an ergonomically designed solid base with a retaining ring clamp that ensures the ring is always properly positioned in the micrometer.
This design simplifies the measurement process and improves the repeatability and therefore the reliability of the measurements.
