Technology has changed. Early adopters of digital dental technology were plagued with many problems and therefore did not realize the quality and profit benefits anticipated for their digital manufacturing investment. These problems can be contributed to the “closed” nature of the system. This means that dental professionals had no options in selecting CAD/CAM software and consumable products (raw materials, machining burs, etc.), the lack of versatility, reliability, and end user support.

The biggest contributing factor to this failure was that these so-called “machines” lacked the rigidity of construction, fixturing, quality components, speed, versatility, and size to reliably, consistently, and effectively produce the various restoration types from the soft and hard materials that are required to enable doctors to maintain or grow their business.

At the heart of our inPractice solutions stand our Versamill precision dental machining centers. Each Versamill machine family member machining center is designed to perform reliably with high precision for the long term. They can process any dental material, from zirconia and PMMA to hard-to-machine cobalt chrome alloys and delicate glass ceramics.

Dental laboratories and milling centers can enjoy the benefits of a wet machine, eliminating the caustic dust associated with milling zirconium dry—equipment-damaging dust that has no place in a professional environment.

The machines are supported by heavy-duty, cast-aluminum alloy or aluminum frames and are powered by high-power, high-precision spindles for complete versatility. A standard dental office compressor is all you need for hookup.

Beyond the unsurpassed quality restorations provided by Versamill machining Centers and other products associated with our inPractice Digital Dentistry Suite of products, there are many other characteristics that make the Versamill 5X200 perfect for any digital dental laboratory or milling center. These include:

• Minimal post-machining handwork.
• Short machine cycle times for same-day restorations if required.
• Small footprint.
• Open system (freedom to choose system components and consumables).
• 5-axis machining center is whisper quiet.
• Fast, accurate, and easy to operate.
• Wet milling provides clean operation free of equipment-damaging, caustic, and abrasive contaminants typical of dry-machining operations.
• Trouble-free.

Making the transition to digital manufacturing can be a frightening proposition. After nearly 40 years of helping companies make the transition from old analog methods to digital methods, Axsys knows how to do it successfully. Even if you have little computer experience, our training programs enable you to successfully transition to the digital world in a short period of time.

Beyond training, Axsys supports you with highly skilled and experienced application engineers to address any questions, problems, or difficult cases that may appear during your day-to-day operations. They’re even available when it’s time for you to expand the offerings of your business or explore new ideas that address your individual needs or plans for growth.
