Abstract: An automatic vacuum mixer-washer apparatus is described. In this apparatus, a mixing vessel moves automatically from load-unload position to mix-wash position and back to the load-unload position after completing either the mixing cycle or the washing cycle. The mixing means connects automatically to the driving means, thereby activating a timer to control the duration of the mixing and washing cycles. This vacuum mixer-washer apparatus is especially useful for mixing dental materials under vacuum and automatically washing the mixing means after removing said mixed dental materials.
