Line of Dental Milling Machines Expands



DATRON Dynamics has introduced two new products to its D5 Dental Mill line. The D5 Entry and the D5LS are designed to provide a scalable solution for a wider range of dental labs. All three machines in the DATRON line allow for the milling of zirconia and other soft materials, as well as harder materials like chrome cobalt and titanium.

For labs that want to mill metal and have low to moderate production levels, DATRON now offers the D5 Entry model with a manual (puck) changer. "The D5 Entry is ideal for labs that want to mill their own titanium implant parts, but do not require automatic puck changes," said Robert Murphy, Vice President, noting that it can be upgraded to include automation if the lab's needs change in the future.

According to the company, for labs that demand a higher level of precision than the +/- 10 microns offered by the D5 Entry and Standard models, the D5 LS is equipped with Heidenhain linear scales which result in high positioning accuracy. The D5 LS is also designed to provide increased thermal stability which helps to yield a consistent quality even when there are significant fluctuations in room temperature or temperature increases caused by extended uninterrupted milling. This results in a repeatability of < 2 microns and an absolute accuracy of +/- 5 microns.

The original D5 Standard 5-axis dental mill's rigid cast steel construction houses an integrated 8-piece handling system that automatically loads and unloads blanks for up to 100 hours of unattended operation. The D5 features a user-friendly touch-screen Apple iPad to control all machine functions.

DATRON Dynamics provides complete machining, workholding, tooling and automation solutions. Industries served include dental laboratories, electronic applications in thermal management parts, aerospace backlit panels, medical industry including micro fluidics, research and development laboratories including clean-room facilities, 3D precision engraving and micro-hole drilling.
