Woodpecker / DTE Smart A Endo Motor

The Woodpecker Smart A Endo Motor is a cordless, advanced endodontic motor with integrated root canal measurement capabilities, designed to enhance the efficiency and precision of root canal treatments. It combines traditional endodontic motor functions with an apex locator, allowing simultaneous canal preparation and length measurement.

Key Features

1.Dual Functionality:

• Functions as an endo motor for root canal preparation and enlargement.
• Acts as an apex locator to measure canal length in real time.

2. Bluetooth Connectivity:

• Pairs with the WEndo app on iOS or Android devices for motor control, parameter customization, and treatment recording.
• Visual indicators show the Bluetooth connection status:
  • Yellow: Connected to a mobile device.
  • Blue: Connected to a foot pedal.
  • Purple: Connected to both.

3. Rotational Modes:

• Continuous Rotation: 360° clockwise for general canal preparation.
• Reciprocating Mode: Alternating file movement for systems requiring specific reciprocation.
• ATR Mode: Automatic alternate rotation when torque exceeds the set limit.
• Block Bypass Mode (BB): Stops momentarily after each forward rotation.
• Ledge Bypass Mode (LB): Alternates between reciprocation and continuous rotation.

4. Smart Automatic Functions:

• Auto Reversing: Switches to reverse when torque exceeds the preset value, reverting to forward when reduced.
• Auto Start/Stop: Starts or stops file rotation automatically based on its position in the canal.
• Apical Slow Down: Gradually reduces file speed near the apical foramen for enhanced precision.
• Apical Action: Automatically stops, reverses, or continues rotation based on the file's location near the apex.

5. Customizable File Systems:

• Users can select and adjust file systems via the WEndo app, including settings for speed (1000–2500 RPM) and torque (0.4–5.0 Ncm).

6. Calibration:

• Ensures accurate performance by compensating for variations due to contra-angle wear or sterilization. Calibration is recommended monthly or when changing contra-angles.

7. Integrated Apex Locator:

• Allows simultaneous root canal length measurement and preparation.
• Visual and auditory signals indicate proximity to the apical foramen.

How It Works

1. Preparation and Setup:

• Connect the handpiece to the WEndo app via Bluetooth.
• Install the appropriate contra-angle and file.
• Calibrate the handpiece for optimal performance.
• Insert the measuring wire and attach the file clip and lip hook for apex location.

2. Operation:

• Select the desired mode and file system in the WEndo app.
• Use the Start/Stop button or wireless foot pedal to control the motor.
• Monitor torque, speed, and canal length in real time via the app.

3. Root Canal Length Measurement:

• The built-in apex locator measures the canal length while preparing the canal.
• When the file tip approaches the apical foramen, the device provides audible and visual signals.
• The working length can be determined by adjusting for the reference point and subtracting 0.5–1 mm.

4. Safety Features:

• The motor shuts off automatically after 10 minutes of inactivity or if overheating occurs.
• Protective functions prevent excessive torque, ensuring safe operation.

5. Hygiene:

• Components that come into contact with the patient, such as the file clip, lip hook, and measuring wire, must be autoclaved after each use.
