New main workflow: Object import occurs before blank creation
As of this version, you first import the objects and then create the blank. Depending on the form of the material – disc, block, or prefabricated abutment – dentalcam displays various dialog windows to facilitate the efficient placement of blanks.
If you prefer to create your discs before importing objects, you can still do so. Use the blank archive for this: Creating discs via the blank archive.

A practical sequence of the individual workflow steps.

A user interface that adapts to your work and provides the tools you need.

Restructured configuration of materials and optional tools

Your benefit
-
Clear and precise definition of manufacturing parameters for entire material groups or individual materials.

When importing objects, you then select the machine model on which you want to manufacture the objects.
