HistoryRoadmaster Industries Inc. Company founded in Illinois in 1925. It began by making wheel disks for manufacturers of toys and steadily increased its product line, even surviving the Great Depression.

SKU: vita-3d-master-tooth-guide-replacement-cartridges. Vendor: VITA North America. Manufacturer part number: B2601M. Shade: #B2601M-281150 1M1, 1M2.

In 1950, AMF Wheel Goods acquired Roadmaster and the company began to make exercise equipment under the Vitamaster label. In 1996, Roadmaster sold its bicycle division to Brunswick, which makes stationary bicycles under the LifeFitness label. It discontinued making Vitamaster exercise bikes.

TypesVitamaster made exercise bikes for working out at home, but they were nothing like the fitness equipment of the 21st century. The Vitamaster ComfortAir was a simple, inexpensive model that didn’t even offer an electronic display. The Vitamaster Airwaves is a rowing bike, allowing you to work out your arms and legs at the same time. The Vitamaster Slenderline was thin as the name describes, but it came with a speedometer, timer and adjustments for 10 speeds. AvailabilityYou can no longer purchase new Vitamaster exercise bikes from the manufacturer or in a fitness store, but there are still some available if you want one. Check on Internet auction sites and classifieds for used models.

Some of these bikes are available for as little as $10. ConsiderationsBefore you purchase a Vitamaster exercise bike at an online site, consider that most of these bicycles have been used. It is impossible to tell the exact condition it is in until you get it.

Also remember that because Vitamaster exercise bikes are no longer made by the manufacturer, you might have difficulty getting parts if something breaks. Question sellers before making your purchase to double-check that the bike is in good working order. WarningYou should not use Vitamaster or any other exercise bike without discussing it with your doctor. Only your health care provider will know if you are healthy enough for this type of aerobic exercise and how much time you should spend using it. If your physician does feel using fitness equipment is appropriate for you, before you use it be sure to clean the unit when it arrives to make sure it is free of dust and germs.

The wash opaque must be applied in accordance with the working instructions to achieve good wetting of the surface. To ensure correct melting of the opaque, the required temperature must be adhered to. The use of wash opaque is not mandatory; the wash opaque firing can also be carried out with the regular opaque porcelain (colored). Observe the CTE of the alloy.

The CTE of the ceramic must generally be lower than that of the metal. Experience gathered over numerous years has shown that the use of alloys with a CTE between 14 - 14.4, measured at 25-600 °C, produces very good results. If the CTE value of the alloy is higher, the temperature range between 900 °C to 700 °C must not be passed in less than three minutes during the cooling phase. However, this does not apply to each alloy.

In individual cases successful firing performed by VITA Zahnfabrik may differ from the recommendations of the alloy manufacturers. When firing bridges, always separate down to the opaque at the first firing. Shrinkage of the ceramic always occurs only in the thickest area.

Therefore a uniform layer thickness is recommended. Do not use any dry or saw-toothed instruments. The use of these instruments can cause the ceramic to become detached and separated from the opaque surface. Various manufacturers no longer recommend oxidation firing. However, when changing alloys, oxidation firing should be carried out.

It serves to check the oxide shade, which must be homogeneous in shade. There must be no stains or discolorations on the surface to be veneered. The oxide layer can be subsequently removed by sandblasting or etching. Ensure correct firing parameters and firing temperature. Carry out muffle test by using a mirror to see if the muffle is properly heated from all sides in the firing chamber. Grind the surface of the ceramic with diamond abrasives.

Make sure the ceramic is not ground when too hot. When using blunt diamonds, do not increase the grinding pressure but replace the tool. When using a turbine, always ensure water cooling.

Information on reliable veneering of NPM alloysSince frameworks made from non-precious metal alloys conduct heat poorly and hence exhibit a different behavior than precious metal alloys, the following information must be observed when veneering NPM frameworks with VITA VM 13:. Only use special ceramic crucibles when casting NPM alloys. Only new material may be cast. When finishing the frameworks, sharp edges must be avoided. Sandblast with 250 µm aluminium oxide at a pressure of 3-4 bars.

The information of the alloy manufacturer must be adhered to!. To avoid discoloration, all surfaces not to be veneered should be sandblasted or ground after each firing process. Then they need to be cleaned thoroughly. To achieve reliable bonding of VITA VM 13 to the NPM alloy, the temperature for the washbake must be 50°C and the temperature for the opaque firing must be 30° higher.

This way improved wetting of the surface and enhanced bonding are ensured. Please check the following which could have causedthe problem:. Ensure correct firing parameters and firing temperature. Carry out muffle test with mirror to see if muffle is properly heated from all sides. Insulation material residue must not be on the ceramic surface.
