Well, after this weekend when I pick her up and rub some wax on her....I'll throw it back on ebay as a "Dental Printer" for no less than $38k.

Watch it happen........



Charles007......where were ya buddy? This had your name all over it!
Funny thing....my max bid (stragically placed at 1minute and 30sec) was exactly $7001 and someone tried to grab it from me for $7000 at the last minute. I'm a rat bastard for sure! I know how to play eBay;)

What is this printer? Is this similar to a milling machine? What have you made with it?

Scott, that was my bid at 7k........... just kidding.......... don't visit ebay, I'm just a tech that reads dental lab forums and keeps looking for the dental porn pictures that AL keeps posting of his XXX emax crowns......

Zahn sells this for printing patterns for partials and C&B.

I have made all sorts of crazy things with mine. Go through some of my older threads I have started.


Charles, I thought you, or that other couple from NC, or one hundred other people were going to buy it??

Guess I win this time?

Even if it's broken I'm still happy. I'll get it running....

I know of a lab that is beta-testing a new ceramic material for the larger Envisiontec printer like the one I bought!

Printing liquid Zirconia anyone?? It's going to be released soon.....


This machine is now a keeper for sure! I'm picking it up in the morn.....then playing in NY for a day. I ordered some Orange "Dental" material from Zahn for $999 a quart. (2.2lbs of juice) the guy I am getting it from likes a Red colored Jewlery material much better.
They also have a rainbow of other materials to choose from, including the hearing-aid stuff.

I have been offered $50k already.


Watch me get robbed or worse? This is too good to be true!
We'll see tommorow.
I'm driving six-eight hours to Hoboken NJ, and trying to stuff this thing into a GMC Yukon XL.
It also has a seperate light curing unit that goes with it.

Dream come true! Nice weather! No traffic....

Machine is cleaned up and ready to ROcK!1!

This machine needs replacement lamps every 1000Hrs of use or maybe 6 months...

A 12 pack is $4800, or a single lamp is $1000 from the Manufacture.

The curing chamber needs a lamp also.

I got an extra lens worth around $10,000!! (Schwiiiiing!!)

That can extend the build area for partials or big jobs. The Multi-Lens is not sold thru Zahn, and it would pretty much cost ya around $100k for this setup.

This is like a light projector that prints each "slice" of the files.

No dripping from a print head. Liquid pool and a fancy digital shutter.

German built ("you know the Germans make good stuff", Vince Offer, ShamWow)

The company was sold to a Lebaniese that lives somewhere in the East of USA. Totally different machines to achieve the same thing.

Rapid Prototyping Machine SLA 250 - eBay (item 320377064160 end time May-29-09 10:13:19 PDT)

well, this was on my list to buy, but someone else must have offered him a deal. The Auction was ended early

This was a quarter million dolllar Viper Jr. SLA from 3D systems. It could be upgraded to the HR (high Resolution)

This would print models and bigger stuff. 3M and other companys use the bigger version of this for the model printing. The big Viper starts at $500k and you need around 800 sq/ft to install.
With the auto industry and others in trouble, I'm looking hard to find some deals on machines up for sale. They should be flooding the market soon.....

YouTube - ProJet 5000 Operation

This is a bigger version of my InVision printer. Me want.

My plate moves up and down a three foot rail, and the print head is stationary. My light-cure chamber is deep in the back and the plate goes into that every 20 sec or so.

This one has everything in a moving head unit on rails.

envisiontec perfactory rapid Rapid Prototyping - eBay (item 290318568390 end time May-26-09 15:09:00 PDT)

I just scored a $87,000 printer for $7k!!!:D

This thing works great for the hearing aid stuff and Dentistry and Jewlery.
The guy did not advertise it well.
I've been watching it for nine months.....it was at $32,000 buy it now price!

The last printer I bought was $15k and I've made that back in three months and two weeks.

good for you Scott-
not looking for a printer as long as you and your lab keep doing what you have been doing for us
keep up the good work
