• Cube and Cube X sterilisers to meet the needs of individual practices

• EcoDry technology adjusts drying times to loads

Miele is set to complement its system for dental practices with four new small steam sterilisers. Their short cycles, intuitive user interface and an innovative drying support dentists in the daily reprocessing of their instruments. These new products will be available from the end of October 2019 onwards.

Each product line, Cube and Cube X, consists of two models with 17 and 22 l chamber volumes. Cube models offer everything needed for sterilisation in a modern dental surgery. Cube X also boasts many additional innovative features. All sterilisers feature an easily surveyed colour touch display. Programmes are selected fast using easy-to-understand symbols.

With their short cycles, Cube X models guarantee fast instrument turnaround in a B-class cycle. Furthermore, these models feature the latest EcoDry technology which adjusts drying times to load sizes. This shortens reprocessing times by up to 30%, prolongs the life of instruments and reduces energy consumption. Fast connection of machines to Miele's water pre-treatment systems providing an automatic and time-saving supply of fully demineralised water is a particularly convenient feature. Alternatively, the integrated tank can be filled manually.

The new Miele sterilisers require little maintenance and run automatic and periodic diagnosis cycles. In addition to this, Cube X controls offer the opportunity to programme recurring sequences, allowing a vacuum and helix test to be performed automatically before the first patients even arrive.

All sterilisers offer the option of gap-free documentation of process data. On all models, barcode labels can even be printed immediately. When it comes to connectivity, Cube and Cube X models come WiFi-ready and thereby offer numerous options to transfer data to third-party systems.
