business 43Show Preview IDS Cologne 2013 Ease of use and specific functions are the ingredients thatmakeCIMsystem’sSUM3D Dental a high productivity CAM application for the dental field. Dental labs, who are look- ing for the best technological solutions to improve efficien- cy and quality of production process, can take advantage of the huge CAM experience of CIMsystem to guarantee the production of precise items, in line with the end user’s-den- tists- best expectations. The first step of the process involves the acquisition of the geometries: whether it is a den- tal, intraoral or implant impres- sion, the file is imported into SUM3D Dental which can ac- quire the geometry defined by .stl standard, as well as those coming from other formats, obtained from 3-D scanning or processedbyadentalCAD.This flexibility allows to work with various clients without being tied to specific format standards. The definition of the bestCAMworkcycleisfullyguidedby SUM3DDental,whichrecognizesauto- matically the item and, depending on thetypeandshapeofthecomponentto be implemented, predisposes the ma- chining, by nesting the pieces on the blank to work accordingly to the path specifications and parameters chosen by the operator. The accuracy of the machining is entrustedtothepotentialofthemilling centre and to the support of software functions that, according to the type of material and the required characteris- tics of finish, make it possible to auto- matically identify the machining type and parameters. Thanks to the func- tionalityofSUM3DDental,itispossible to automate and simplify the opera- tions even when working with high resistance materials. Whether it is tita- nium, cobalt-chrome, zirconia or lithi- um disilicate, it is possible to easily definethemostsuitableparametersfor each CAM machining, taking into ac- countthephysicalbehaviourandwith- drawal due to the material, thus ensur- ing a high degree of precision and sur- face quality finish of the final product. Theautomationsofferedbythesys- tem facilitate the setting up of machin- ing without the need of specific opera- tor’s experience, even if the flexibility of the software allows a skilled user to implementpersonalizedchoicesbased on the criteria established by experience or by particular cir- cumstances. The operational simplicity meets the needs of an indus- try which is unused to a com- plex computer technology: with SUM3D Dental the operator can split the work and benefit from the strategies suggested from time to time by the software. It is also possible to store, in spe- cial libraries, custom procedures together with machine tools and machining parameters’ cus- tomizations. The dental world is charac- terized by procedures that are treated subjectively and the au- tomationofSUM3DDentalmeets the need to standardize these procedures with respect to the specificities of manufacturing, withthepossibilityfortheopera- tors to use their experience to in- terveneinapersonalizedwayandwith maximumflexibilitywhenneeded.The immediacy of the software and its ease of use allow the operator to reduce the learning curve and quickly achieve the highestlevelsofproductivity. CIMsystem’s technical assistance provides a working relationship that not only solves current issues but also nourishes, through requests and sug- gestions, the continuous innovation that makes SUM3D Dental constantly updated with respect to the machines’ technologicalevolutionandthemarket needs.
