Abstract

The present invention relates to a steam jet device (1) for use in precision engineering, in particular in dental technology for cleaning and sterilizing workpieces such as dental crown models and base models, as well as an operating method for this device. The steam jet device (1) according to the invention is characterized by at least one mixing device (5) which is connected to a compressed air line (22), a cold water line (32), and a steam boiler (4) for material exchange, and which is configured to supply the fluids saturated steam, cold steam, compressed air, and water, and / or a mixture of two or more of these fluids, individually for output via a steam gun (6). The possibility of outputting the aforementioned fluids not only individually but also mixed in any combination via the steam gun (6) enables not only a particularly fine and stable atomization of the fluids, but also...Fluid mixtures, but also the generation of lukewarm steam in a temperature range of 30 - 50 °C for cleaning temperature-sensitive, 3D-printed workpieces, especially 3D-printed dental models.
