Nickel-Titanium (NiTi) alloys are widely used in the medical industry for their flexibility, biocompatibility, and shape-memory properties. In the production of root canal files, precision heat treatment is essential to improve both performance and reliability.

Normantherm specializes in vacuum heat treatment for NiTi instruments, delivering results that exceed clinical and manufacturing standards. The signature blue and gold surface finishes are achieved through controlled temperature cycling, which enhances:

  • Flexural strength for use in curved canals
  • Fatigue resistance to prevent instrument failure
  • Cutting efficiency with improved edge integrity
  • Corrosion resistance for safe medical application

By eliminating oxidation and contamination, vacuum processing ensures a clean, stable material structure suited for high-precision medical tools.

Normantherm supports medical device manufacturers with:

  • Customized furnace configurations
  • Sample processing and testing
  • Stable mass-production capabilities
  • Reliable temperature control and repeatability

With advanced brazing and heat treatment technology, Normantherm plays a key role in improving the quality and performance of modern endodontic instruments.
