Kavo - K-ERGOgrip / K-Control TLC Installation Knee - 1 set

Despite the intricate nature of the work itself, the long periods of maximum concentration typical of complex laboratory tasks often require a lot of stamina. The angle one's wrist needs to be set at in order to work with conventional laboratory drives or handpieces can place dental technicians under significant strain.

Developed and designed in accordance with anatomical needs, KaVo’s new K-ERGOgrip laboratory drive is a perfect and logical solution to this problem, as well as weighing even less. The new KaVo K-ERGOgrip is also significantly more compact, at just 140 mm in length.

Continuous power at its very best

The groundbreaking grip ergonomics of KaVo’s K-ERGOgrip facilitate prolonged fatigue free working. The drive unit’s resilient mechanics have also been designed with optimum performance in mind. Vibration-free and with apparent ease, the collectorless DC motor makes its hight orque power available in a speed range from 1.000 to 50.000 rpm.

Absolute perfection at your fingertips. Working in partnership with Germany’s Fraunhofer research institute, KaVo’s handpiece, whose design reflects the very best in ergonomics, is an absolute masterpiece. As part of the process of creating a handpiece for the KaVo K-ERGOgrip laboratory drive which would provide the ideal response to working needs, video analyses and practical tests involving volunteers were carried out.

The significantly reduced bend of the wrist supports a much more relaxed grip, optimising working conditions and enabling technicians to concentrate fully on the task at hand. Now, even tedious and complex tasks requiring maximum precision can be mastered “at the flick of a wrist”.

 Features:

Ease and convenience

    • Sophisticated handpiece geometry: No wrist bending angle and a working posture that is gentle to the joints

    • Exchangeable grip sleeve: Adaptation to individual preference

    • Short overall length and lightweight: Optimum distribution of weight

    • Minimal heating: Feels pleasant during you work

    • Time-proven softgrip inlets: For fatigue-free work and pleasant haptics

    • 50.000 rpm in counterclockwise rotation as well: Well-suited for left-handers

Quality

    • Brush- and sensorless motor: Reduced service periods and reduced maintenance cost

    • Extremely high concentricity: Low transfer of vibrations

    • Ball bearing with patented, dirt-repellent sealing system: For maximum stability

    • Removal of the chuck for cleaning without tools: For rapid and easy ball bearing change

    • Stronger chuck grip: For maximum reliability

    • Robust and patented one-shaft system: For long service life and less vibration

Power

    • High torque of 7Ncm: For more power

    • Up to 50.000 rpm in clockwise rotation: For all common materials

    • New chuck system: Optimum force transmission due to a 40 % higher retention force

Select between table, knee or foot control

The functions of the KaVo K-ERGOgrip can be controlled either directly on the central table‑top unit or via a connected knee or foot control.

     • 4 Preselectable programmes (material-dependent)

     • settable torque

     • Four-colour display (program-dependent)

Individual users can create performance profiles to meet their specific requirements by presetting and saving torque and speed values in four programs. The maximum values for speed and torque can be set separately and independently of these programs.

Select and store quickly and easily

4 storable programmes:

     • Save within 4 seconds and thus a 4-second speed control function.

     • 4-colour display for easy distinction.

     • Quick access to the preset speeds and torque for repeated work by simply pressing the speed control.
