    KATANA™ Zirconia ONE SPEED can be sintered in approximately 8 minutes using the CEREC® SpeedFire furnace's pre-heating function.

  • 2

    The pre-heating function reduces the standard 9-minute sintering cycle to about 8 minutes for improved efficiency.

  • 3

    This capability is designed for clinicians using chairside zirconia in same-day restorative workflows.

  • 4

    The SpeedFire furnace reaches approximately 400°C before the sintering process begins.

  • 5

    The 8-minute sintering workflow requires CEREC System version 5.2.13 or 5.3.3 and later.
