5-Axis Milling Machine

Smildenbio 5-Axis Milling Machine

A revolution in dentistry
the open system is the technology of the furue


The dental technology market is currently in the throes of a revolution. There is a dramatically rising tendency to replace manual jobs in the manufacture of dental prostheses with automated processes. Smilden recognized this market trend very early on and has responded to it to cooperate with SAUER GmbH (DMG Group) for a real open system integration in dental applications.

Not only is the industral manufacture of dental prostheses more
cost-effective, CNC machining also represents a degress of
precision that is practically unattainable with traditional methods.
Digital dental models and ultra 5-Axis milling machines allow
ponpoint precision and open up an almost infinite array of
possibilities for dental users. The patient can be absolutely sure at the end of the day that
his/her personal dental prosthesis fits perfectly.

The production of dental bridges and crowns or implants demands the hihest level of precision and process reliability. Dentists also want maximum flexibility while at the same time the process chain is being subjected to enormous cost pressure. In order to reconcile these partially conflicting requirements the branch is making increased use of industrial standards, from CAD to CAM and on to CNC controlled high-tech machines such as ULTRASONIC 20 Liner.
