Machine overview

The working chamber door locks the working chamber and protects the user from injuries during operation. You can open and close the working chamber door manually.

You cannot open the door when the machine is switched off or while the axes are moving.

• To open or close the working chamber door, pull it upwards or push it downwards with your hand. Use the recessed grip of the door.

Working chamber door

You can insert blanks and tools into the working chamber. This is where the blanks are machined.

Working chamber

1. Outlet for the cooling liquid / air extraction opening
2. Blank changer Machine component which stores multiple blanks in a magazine and which can automatically load them into the working chamber.. When using the search, use a blank changer or a blank magazine instead flap
3. Ionizer
4. Spindle
5. Blank holder; Rotational axis A; Rotational axis B
6. Measuring sensor with protective cage
7. Tool magazine

Colors of the working chamber lighting

The machine illuminates the working chamber in different colors. The color will change depending on the state of the machine. You will find the colors and respective machine status in the following table:

The blank magazine Part of the blank changer in which you store the blanks for automatic loading. is the part of the blank changer Machine component which stores multiple blanks in a magazine and which can automatically load them into the working chamber.. When using the search, use a blank changer or a blank magazine instead where you equip the blanks that you want to machine. The blank changer Machine component which stores multiple blanks in a magazine and which can automatically load them into the working chamber.. When using the search, use a blank changer or a blank magazine instead automatically loads and unloads the blanks into and from the working chamber. The machine can be equipped with up to 8 blanks.

To operate the machine, you must use a computer running Windows® (“CAM computer The computer that is connected to your machine and which runs DentalCAM and DentalCNC.”) and specially designed software (“manufacturing software Term for the software package consisting of DentalCAM and DentalCNC.”). The manufacturing software Term for the software package consisting of DentalCAM and DentalCNC. consists of the following components:

• DentalCAMA CAM application for creating and calculating virtual blanks (“jobs”)
• DentalCNCA CNC application for machining jobs and for maintaining the machine.

To create and design the dental objects you also need a CAD application (sold separately by specialist dealers).

The anti-soling concept decreases the soiling and wear of sensitive machine parts.

The anti-soiling concept consists of:

Dry machining

• The external air extraction system An external suction unit creates a vacuum in the working chamber and sucks machining residues out of it.
• Air blown into the working chamber Keeps machining residues away from the spindle and other machine parts.
• The internal vacuum sensor Constantly monitors the vacuum in the working chamber
• The ionizer The ionizer electrically discharges machining residues of certain materials to reduce their dispersion in the working chamber.

Wet machining

The cooling liquid keeps machining debris away from sensitive machine parts.

The actual sound emission of the machine varies heavily depending on the manufacturing material and the machining conditions.

• If the machine is exceptionally loud, check the following operating conditions:

• Cleanliness of the blank holder
• Condition of the tools
• Quality of the blank

• If loud noise cannot be avoided, wear ear protection during machining.

Sound measurement

Measuring conditions:

• Machined material: CoCr
• Tool status: worn

• Measured value: Sound pressure level (distance: 1 m)

• Measurement according to ISO 3746, survey method 3

Established sound emission:

The identification plate of the machine contains identifying information such as the serial number. You can find the identification plate and machine serial number at the following location:  Connection panel

This machine has 5 axes: 3 linear axes and 2 rotational axes.

Linear axes X, Y, Z (The spindle moves along these axes.); Rotational axes A, B (The blank holder rotates about these axes.)
