I have one, actually like it much better than the Roland's. Uses hyperdent cam software. Very fast, twice as fast as 53dci and 52...which is really nice but my favorite is the quality of restorations produced, much cleaner in aidite than Roland. Now some might make an argument that's the cam (millbox versus hyperdent) and I won't argue with them but big difference in the green state quality between those two machines. Only con is support is iffy...but Roland's is doodoo as well. I wouldn't pick either Roland or aidite as my first mill because of this if I were you...I'd pick a mill with outstanding support, like a versamill from axsys.

I have heard good things about from two different labs.
Check out https://caliberdentaltech.com they sell the mill. Based out of Arizona. Daniel Trujillo does amazing support and seems to know everything about all old and new lab cad/cam equipment.

HI. I have a buddy who uses Aidite and he likes it a lot. He described it similar to TheLabGuy where the production quality is pretty solid. I use Roland and there has few kinks here and there. In terms of after market support, though both manufacturers are hard to get a hold of, I call the person I bought the mill from and they have a team that intercedes on our behalf. Best of luck!!

thank you so much for your response , this helps me narrow my choices . one questions about the parts longevity specially the spindle ofourse , does it live for long ?
