Calibrating the Sirona inlab profire

[filippos]

I don't know what model you have but I had one of the larger sirona sintering furnaces which was a mihm vogt rebrand. A guy from Zubler ( how sells the mihm vogt) gave me the deep clean cycle for that particular furnace. Just have to dig deeper and make sure its the same furnace before you start running a random deep clean cycle.

Okay. I will look for a suitable cycle. Thanks for helping

@filippos did you ever resolve this issue or find out how to calibrate the furnace? I just started using the Inlab Profire furnace. The esthetics with Cercon ht ML and xt ML were very good. But I am planning to try Katana YML to avoid having 2 different types of zirconia. I'll let you know how my test goes once I receive a disc to try.

From the Profire manual, it says Service 1 program is for Temperature check (only in conjunction with the test kit). Maybe that is what we need to calibrate the furnace.

Hey @drmikezhou . Nice to hear. We also use Katana YML . And the reason i wanted to calibrate the sirona is that we get a transition line between the last 2 enamel layers when we sinter Katana YML. I have tried so many different sinter cycles but the line is still visible.

yes, it says that. But what does it mean only in conjuction with the test kit? Do you have any info on that? I need to speak with our dealer then

Let me know your result when you test the YML blanks. Thanks.

@filippos I had no problems with Katana YML C2 that i tried with my Profire. I heard their earlier disks had issues but it has been resolved now. Maybe order another disk and give it a try.

And why not consider Ivoclar ZirCAD Prime? On paper it appears to have similar properties as Katana YML.
