1
Sterilize temperature ≤ 135 °C (Improved type ≤ 155 °C ), if the temperature is over 135 °C, the motor will be damaged.
2
Normal bone drill can only hold drill bits less than 6mm, acetabulum reaming drill with big torque, rpm is around 300, cannulated drill is used with nail or K wire, rpm is around 600.
3
The battery needs to be taken out of the power tool after surgery. Otherwise the small automatic discharge of the electricity will make the life of the battery short.
4
The battery cannot be sterilized, it is not autoclavable.
5
The cranial bur must be washed right after the surgery by purger in order to avoid the blood sticking in the bur, then we should make it dry.
6
The battery space in the handpiece of the tool should not have any water after sterilization.
7
The cranial bur blade is made of medical stainless steel, in order to avoid being broken, so it is flexible and not very hard, it is easy to be worn out (attrite), we suggest each blade only be used for 1 surgery.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum sterilization temperature for the motor?
The safe sterilization temperature is ≤ 135 °C. For the improved type, the limit is ≤ 155 °C. Exceeding these temperatures will cause irreversible damage to the motor.
Can the battery package be sterilized?
No, the battery cannot be sterilized and is not autoclavable under any circumstances. Always remove the battery before processing the tool.
What are the recommended drill bit sizes and operating speeds?
A normal bone drill is limited to drill bits less than 6mm. The acetabulum reaming drill operates at approximately 300 rpm, while the cannulated drill (used with K wire or nails) operates at around 600 rpm.
How should the battery be stored after surgery?
The battery must be immediately removed from the power tool handpiece post-surgery. Leaving it inside will cause automatic discharge, reducing its overall lifespan. Additionally, ensure the battery compartment in the handpiece is completely dry after sterilization.
What is the recommended usage limit for the cranial bur blade?
The cranial bur blade is made of flexible medical stainless steel to prevent breakage. Because it is flexible rather than rigid, it is subject to faster wear. We suggest using each blade for only one surgical procedure.
What maintenance is required for the cranial bur post-surgery?
The cranial bur must be washed immediately after surgery using a purger to prevent blood from coagulating and sticking inside the bur. It should be thoroughly dried afterward.
