Abstract

The equations of dental amalgamator motions for relative capsule and charge velocities are derived at impact as a function of the ratio of capsule length to amalgamator amplitude, independent of triturator speed. The best theoretical conditions for amalgam trituration occur near a ratio of πl2.
