ISO 7488:2018规定了用于混合牙科汞齐合金的电动混合机器和胶囊中的牙科汞以生产牙科汞合金的要求。 ISO 7488:2018规定了用于确定是否符合这些要求的测试方法。 ISO 7488:2018是指那些通过摆动作用混合并由制造商出售的用于混合牙科汞合金的机器，无论它们是否用于混合任何其他类型的产品。 ISO 7488:2018没有规定可拆卸混合胶囊的要求，正如在许多机器中用于容纳待混合材料一样，尽管在使用中或在测试中被认为是机器的一部分。

ISO 7488:2018 specifies requirements for electrically-powered mixing machines for mixing dental amalgam alloy, and dental mercury in capsules to produce dental amalgam. ISO 7488:2018 specifies the test methods used to determine conformity with these requirements. ISO 7488:2018 refers to those machines that mix by an oscillating action and which are sold by the manufacturer for the purpose of mixing dental amalgam whether or not they are intended for mixing any other type of product. ISO 7488:2018 does not specify requirements for removable mixing-capsules, as are used in many machines to contain the material to be mixed, although considered as part of the machine when in use or under test.
