Dentistry — Mixing machines for dental amalgam
ISO 7488:2018 specifies requirements for electrically-powered mixing machines for mixing dental amalgam alloy, and dental mercury in capsules to produce dental amalgam.
ISO 7488:2018 specifies the test methods used to determine conformity with these requirements.
ISO 7488:2018 refers to those machines that mix by an oscillating action and which are sold by the manufacturer for the purpose of mixing dental amalgam whether or not they are intended for mixing any other type of product.
ISO 7488:2018 does not specify requirements for removable mixing-capsules, as are used in many machines to contain the material to be mixed, although considered as part of the machine when in use or under test.

Frequently Asked Questions about ISO 7488:2018
When you purchase a standard from the Austrian Standards webshop (e.g. ÖNORM, ISO), a single-user licence is included as standard. This entitles a single person to use the standard. A multi-user licence is required if several employees need access. It enables company-wide, legally compliant use and sharing of standards.
Standardization thrives on expertise and participation. Anyone interested can play an active role in its further development – for example, by joining the relevant committee or a working group. In this way, you can help shape the content and contribute to advancing the state of the art.
If you have an extensive portfolio of standards, we recommend using a professional standards management tool. With effects 2.0, you can manage your standards centrally and efficiently. You can optimise your procurement processes and benefit from an integrated information and subscription service. This ensures you are always up to date and never miss any relevant developments.
