Neo Ceiling Mount Unit

CEILING MOUNT UNIT

Neo Ceiling is a ceiling-mounted, computer-controlled treatment unit engineered to maximise workflow efficiency, ergonomics and treatment room performance. By eliminating floor cords and chair-mounted hanging hoses, it creates a clean, uncluttered clinical environment that improves accessibility, enhances freedom of movement and presents a modern, professional appearance for patients.

Its ceiling-mounted design also contributes to a more cost-efficient fit-out by minimising the services required to the treatment chair, simplifying installation and reducing infrastructure complexity. Intuitive instrument positioning, smooth ambidextrous operation and effortless conversion between left- and right-handed use provide exceptional flexibility for different clinicians and clinical workflows.

Combining contemporary Scandinavian design with intelligent engineering, Neo Ceiling is a long-term investment in productivity, clinician wellbeing, patient comfort and practice efficiency.

Ergonomics — Designed for Clinician & Staff Wellbeing

Ergonomically engineered dental chairs and treatment units are an important investment in modern dentistry, supporting clinician and staff wellbeing, productivity, workflow and clinical performance. Fimet combines intelligent ergonomic design with features that promote natural working postures, efficient four-handed dentistry and freedom of movement.

Dual joysticks integrated into the chair base provide intuitive chair positioning and control, while the wireless foot pedal operates both chair and treatment-unit functions—eliminating traditional floor-level control cables. Accessible controls and well-positioned instruments help reduce unnecessary reaching, stretching, twisting and movement, supporting better posture, reducing physical fatigue and creating a cleaner, safer and more efficient treatment environment. More than comfort, Fimet ergonomics are designed to support healthier working practices and enhanced patient care.

Where scientific principles, intelligent design and precision engineering come together.

High-performance ergonomics for staff

These systems are therefore considered ideal for compliant, safe, and efficient dental operatory environments in Australia.

Consistent DRILL Performance

One of the most common frustrations in dentistry is unpredictable drill performance. Rather than the drill itself, the problem often lies within the treatment unit, where numerous mechanical valves, diaphragms, seals and other wear components gradually deteriorate over time. The result can include air and water leaks, inconsistent performance and unnecessary service interruptions. Because these wear items are considered routine maintenance, their replacement is typically excluded from extended warranty coverage.

Rather than relying on this traditional mechanical infrastructure, Fimet incorporates intelligent electronic control technology that eliminates many of the wear-prone mechanical components found in conventional delivery systems. The result is virtually leak-free operation, dependable drill performance and outstanding day-to-day reliability throughout the life of the treatment unit.

The most reliable treatment unit is not the one with the best service network—it is the one engineered to need the least service in the first place.

Future-Ready by Design

Modern dentistry has been transformed by digital imaging, intraoral scanning, CAD/CAM and integrated practice management software. Fimet’s remote-control treatment unit has been developed with the same forward-thinking philosophy, combining intelligent technology with safer workflows, greater efficiency and long-term reliability.

Lower Lifetime Ownership Costs

The true cost of a treatment unit extends beyond the initial purchase. Maintenance requirements, servicing, downtime and productivity all contribute to the lifetime value of the investment. By reducing reliance on wear-prone mechanical components, Fimet helps practices minimise ongoing maintenance demands and gain greater confidence in long-term ownership costs.

Protecting Valuable Chair Time

Touch-free controls, automated waterline maintenance and smooth, easy-to-clean surfaces help reduce preparation and cleaning time between patients. By streamlining everyday workflows, Fimet improves scheduling efficiency, maximises chair utilisation and allows your team to focus on patient care.

Intelligent Waterline Management

Fimet ARCUS automatically dispenses disinfectant and flushes instrument waterlines, reducing manual maintenance, helping minimise biofilm formation and supporting consistent infection control with every patient. Automating these small but essential infection control tasks saves valuable staff time, allowing the dental team to concentrate on patient care instead of routine equipment maintenance.

Cordless Control

A cordless remote foot control enables touch-free management of a wide range of chair and unit functions, improving clinical workflow, efficiency, and infection control.

Integrated smart diagnostics continuously monitor system performance, enabling rapid fault detection and faster service response to help protect valuable chair time.

The result is exceptional equipment reliability, greater operational efficiency, and lower lifetime ownership costs—helping practices maximize productivity while reducing unnecessary operating expenses.

Oil-Free

KNEE-BREAK DENTAL CHAIR

No Risk of Spills or Leaks

A cleaner environment for you, your staff, and your patients.

Fimet chairs are free from hydraulic oils/liquids which can be considered more environmentally friendly. There’s no risk of fluid spills and they typically have less impact on disposal concerns. A liquid-free system reduces the risk of contamination from leaking fluids, which could compromise the cleanliness and safety of the dental office. Overall, Fimet liquid-free dental chairs offer a combination of cost-savings, efficiency, and environmental benefits, making them a more attractive option for today’s modern dental practices.

Electrical Safety

Fimet low voltage electrical infrastructure is considered a safer dental treatment unit alternative to high voltage systems, particularly when moisture contamination is considered. Low voltage systems reduce the chance of serious electrical hazards in such conditions. Electrical codes often have less stringent requirements for low-voltage installations, making them easier to set up and maintain.

Suction

Fimet suction system with flexible left/right arm positioning can be easily integrated into the cabinet behind the chair

ACL

Under Australian Consumer Law (ACL) and Workplace Health and Safety (WHS) regulations, dental equipment must meet high standards for safety, hygiene, and accessibility. If items such as dental chairs or treatment units are installed with exposed control cords on the floor—creating a tripping hazard—or are arranged in a way that impedes clinical workflow, this may constitute a significant issue under the ACL. In such cases, the buyer may be entitled to a repair, replacement, or refund, provided the issue relates to the product itself or the manner of its installation. However, if the problem arises due to the purchaser’s own planning or layout decisions, ACL protections may not apply. Suppliers, installers, and designers share responsibility for ensuring that equipment and clinical environments are safe and comply with all relevant standards and guidelines. Where issues fall within their scope of work, they may be obligated to assist in resolving them.
