Iris 2 Evolution Inverter Mestra Vacuum Mixer
The Iris 2 Evolution Inverter Mestra vacuum mixer is designed for the homogeneous mixing of dental gypsum, investment materials, alginates and laboratory silicones.
Thanks to its Inverter control, it allows precise adjustment of speed, time and rotation direction to improve mix density and reduce air bubbles.
Why use a vacuum mixer in the dental laboratory?
Vacuum mixing directly improves the quality of models, investment materials and technical laboratory materials. By limiting air inclusions, it helps produce mixes that are more homogeneous, more consistent and easier to handle.
The Inverter system of the Iris 2 Evolution allows the speed and cycle duration to be precisely adapted according to the material being used.
This flexibility is particularly useful for laboratories looking for improved reproducibility when working with dental gypsum, investment materials, alginates and duplication silicones.
Benefits of the Iris 2 Evolution Inverter mixer
- Bubble reduction thanks to vacuum mixing.
- Precise adjustment of speed from 100 to 400 rpm.
- Reverse rotation function to help reduce lumps.
- RPM and time display for precise cycle control.
- Diaphragm pump for simplified maintenance.
- 550 cc bowl included for routine dental laboratory preparations.
Laboratory tip
To obtain a denser and more homogeneous mix, it is recommended to follow the exact powder / liquid ratio specified for the material being used.
Many laboratories use one dedicated bowl for gypsum, another for investments and another for silicones in order to reduce cross-contamination.
This organization improves protocol stability and limits setting variations between different material families.
Applications in the dental laboratory
- Mixing of dental gypsum for models and bases.
- Homogeneous preparation of casting investment materials.
- Mixing of alginates according to manufacturer protocol.
- Preparation of duplication silicones.
- Reduction of porosities and improvement of surface quality.
Simplified instructions for use
- Correctly install the bowl on the mixer.
- Add the materials while respecting the recommended dosage.
- Set the speed and cycle time according to the material being used.
- Activate reverse rotation if necessary to homogenize the mix.
- Start the vacuum cycle, then pour immediately after preparation.
Inverter control to adapt the cycle to each material
The Inverter control provides finer control over the mixer’s behaviour during the cycle.
Adjustment of speed, time and rotation direction helps adapt the preparation to the materials used in the laboratory, especially when viscosities or working times vary.
This control of the cycle contributes to more consistent, denser and more regular mixes for dental prosthetic work.

FAQ – Iris 2 Evolution Inverter Mestra
Which materials can be mixed with this vacuum mixer?
The Iris 2 Evolution Inverter is designed for dental gypsum, investment materials, alginates and certain silicones used in the laboratory.
The precise speed adjustment allows the mix to be adapted to different technical materials.
It remains important to follow the recommendations of the manufacturer of the material being used.
What is the Inverter function used for?
The Inverter control allows precise control of the mixer speed and rotation direction.
This function helps homogenize the mass and reduce the formation of lumps or dry areas.
It also improves the stability and repeatability of preparations.
Why use vacuum mixing?
Vacuum mixing significantly reduces the air bubbles present in the materials.
This improves mix density, surface quality and helps limit corrections after pouring.
This technique is particularly useful for precision models and laboratory investment materials.
Is the 550 cc bowl sufficient for daily use?
Yes, the 550 cc bowl is suitable for many routine dental laboratory procedures.
Depending on production volume or the materials used, other compatible Iris bowl sizes may be used.
Many laboratories keep several bowls dedicated to different materials to improve workstation organization.
Can the mixer be installed without wall mounting?
The mixer is supplied with a wall mounting kit, but it can also be used with a suitable Iris Mestra support stand if the laboratory prefers to avoid wall installation.
The choice depends on workstation organization, available space and laboratory configuration.
