Kuraray Announces Faster Katana Zirconia One Speed Workflow

Posted: September 22, 2026

Edited by Dentaltown staff

Las Vegas—Kuraray Noritake Dental announced that Katana Zirconia One Speed can be sintered in approximately eight minutes when used with the preheating function in the CEREC SpeedFire furnace.

The preheating function brings the furnace to approximately 400 C before sintering begins, reducing the standard nine-minute sintering cycle by approximately one minute. The workflow is designed to help clinicians streamline same-day zirconia restorations.

To use the feature, clinicians select the preheat function on the SpeedFire screen and confirm it is active. Once the furnace reaches the target temperature, Katana Zirconia One Speed can be sintered in approximately eight minutes.
