[0002] Root canal instrument fracture is a common oral clinical complication. Therefore, it is of great clinical significance to study the cyclic fatigue performance of machine-used root canal files. At present, the commonly used detection method of manufacturers is to use a root canal motor to insert the root canal file into the tooling groove, use the recommended working speed and torque cycle test until the root canal file breaks, and record the fatigue time of the root canal file. Or use the method of simulating cutting resin blocks to test the fatigue resistance of the root canal file. However, these methods cannot imitate the cutting environment in the root canal, and cannot give the root canal file the torque that has been claimed, which is quite different from clinical use. The utility model can adjust the motor output shaft resistance through a potentiometer, apply a constant torque at different positions (different clamping lengths) of the root canal file, and cooperate with the root canal motor to cyclically test whether the fatigue resistance meets the standard, and at the same time, it can verify whether the recommended working speed and torque are reasonable.
