Five-Axis Machining Center for Dental Applications, Operated by Apple iPad

Datron Dynamics Inc. says the company’s D5 Dental Mill is a 5-axis, high-speed machining center designed for dental milling applications including crowns, bridges, abutments, inlays, onlays, telescopes, implants, bar work and even models. A rigid cast iron construction houses a fully-integrated 5-axis automation system built to hold up to eight material blanks or “pucks” frequently used by dental labs. This integrated eight-piece handling system loads and unloads blanks for unattended operation.

Machining Center Features ±5 Micron Position Accuracy

Datron Dynamics’s M10 Pro features linear scales on all axes driven by larger motors and drives, yielding a ±5-micron position accuracy and rapids ranging to 30 m per min.

Automated High-Speed Machining For Small-Part Manufacturing

The M8 is a five-axis, high speed machining center designed for manufacturing small parts, especially those requiring tight tolerances. The center can access five sides of a part to complete it in a single set-up. According to the company, the center is ideal for producing medical, aerospace and electro-mechanical components.

Finding The Right Words And The Right Process

This greeting card giant leverages hand-engraving competencies, digital media and high speed machining to produce press-ready dies so its cards are ready for the consumer's viewing pleasure.

Alcohol-Based Coolant Offers Environmentally Friendly Machining

This micro-volume coolant delivery system uses ethanol as the cooling medium for non-ferrous workpieces. The ethanol evaporates after it cools the cutting tool, so no residue is left behind on machined workpieces.
