    Divot on the EZMill

    Clean your mill (make sure the burs and the point where the touch off is is dust free) and use the OEM burs and you won't have a problem.

    3 shape/ exocad

    3Shape scanners don't output STL's natively. It's an open system AFTER the design. There is a way to get STL scans out of the system though, either via their 'visualization output' or by turning on the scanit stl output on the dongle. Both are free but needs to be enabled by your reseller. Then...

    Let's change ANATOMICAL FORMS(only stl format)

    Just remember that in 3shape you need to 1) create the anatomy library and import each tooth, then 2) create the smile library using those imported teeth and arrange them into 'smiles'.

    Or just create a new anatomy library and import the dcm in and it will output an STL in your anatomy library folder.

    Wieland Mini Mill

    They will cut Chrome Cobalt only (metal) and it does use a mechanical touch off instead of an electrical like the older machines.

    NT-Trading mod

    Spray the interface, tell the software it's a 'prep' and then scan it like a regular die. Design the crown on top of it and then use an attachment to remove a screw hole.

    No one is forcing you to use 3Shape, why don't you go use Exocad?

    3shape second dongle

    It'll be around $7k for a second dongle with the dental system on it. Why not just unplug the dongle when you leave and take it with you and use that?

    A little question with my 3shape when choice the pre-preparetion button.

    one thing is you should probably be using a 'temporary pontic' and not a 'crown pontic'. Try that - it could be causing the error.

    P.O.S. VHF Mill and CADBLU SUCKS!!! I know more technical stuff then they do.

    :clap2: I guess I should have gotten a Roland! Are these repairs at the discretion of the re-seller though (does every re-seller have a different policy) or how does that work?

    P.O.S. VHF Mill and CADBLU SUCKS!!! I know more technical stuff then they do.

    On the Roland website it specifically states that their warranty will not cover "Defects related to third-party applications, software, parts, components, or peripheral devices". Using non oem (or approved) burs seems like it would fit this category. SevanP, curious now, how is milling now...

    3D STL Conversion

    Magics, you sure? What feature in Magics will allow this?

    P.O.S. VHF Mill and CADBLU SUCKS!!! I know more technical stuff then they do.

    Strange..CadBlu does all of that too (I have multiple products from them). I think the OP's problem though is that since he's using aftermarket burs it probably voids his warranty or any loaner coverage (not sure though). Bob, will you send a customer a loaner if they are using aftermarket parts...

    3D STL Conversion

    That looks horrible, lol. And you don't want to use a grayscale image and do a height map...just download Rhino free trial, load the image, trace it using curves and extrude it to the height you want. Save as stl.

    P.O.S. VHF Mill and CADBLU SUCKS!!! I know more technical stuff then they do.

    It's most likely the coating on the Sierra tools...my VHF burs have a light diamond coat and that's probably the reason why I have to change them so often. Tee sierra tools look to have a heavier coating, hence the longevity of them. My guess is that the diamond coating is interfering with the...

    3 Shape D-640 Scanner For Sale

    Not to mention that D640s are difficult to repair and I've been seeing a lot of them breaking down lately. When you send in broken D640 to 3Shape they HIGHLY SUGGEST trading it in because the cost of repair often times reaches the trade in value....so yes, definitely TOO high.

    3shape export material question

    I load STL attachments all day and they work fine. The only problem is the amount of triangles, sometimes you will get errors but you do not need any converters.

    3shape export material question

    Once you've moved the STL attachment to the folder as detailed above, you need to go back into the control panel and change the actual location of the attachment - it's still loading the attachment from the old folder and not the 3Shape directory. Basically go into the attachments setting menu...
