Technology

For the first time ever, air & electric handpieces have fused into a single handpiece system to deliver the power and efficiency of an electric without sacrificing the superior access lightweight and familiar comfort of an air handpiece.

• With activation of the rheostat, the Stylus ATC system:
  • Accelerates to an optimal cutting speed.
  • Continually monitors bur load.
  • Senses the amount of torque delivered.
  • Automatically adjusts torque to maintain peak power.
  • Limits speed when the bur is not under load to minimize wear on handpiece bearings.

Performance

Midwest designed the only air-powered adaptive control handpiece to provide the most powerful cutting when you need it most.

• Adaptive Torque Control intelligence senses the need for more torque and delivers additional power while you are cutting.
• Adapts performance instantly to complement your cutting technique for maximum efficiency.
• The power of air driven handpieces accelerates to a peak power when speed decreases, where as Stylus ATC provides high power on immediate contact with the tooth and maintains that power level at a constant speed throughout the procedure.
• Stylus ATC delivers maximum performance with an average operating power 49% higher than KaVo® and 62% higher than W&H®.*

Technique

Through dentist feedback and clinical evaluation, Midwest designed the only air-powered Adaptive Torque Control handpiece system to instantly adapt performance to complement your technique.

• Stylus ATC intelligently adapts to the force applied, providing:
  • High power at a constant speed ideal for fast, efficient crown removal and tooth reduction.
  • Smooth precision control for decay removal and margin refinement.
  • Efficient performance designed to save you valuable time.
• By instantly adjusting performance while you are cutting, Stylus ATC complements your technique, allowing you to transition from gross reduction to margin refinement in less than a second.
