New CAD CAM LAB

[Sofienne CHATTI]

Hello everyone,

I am now preparing to open a laboratory dentraire prosthesis in Tunisia. Demand in Tunisia is about to rise.
I worked a long time in a laboratory with 3 shape for the software and scanner (D710) and milling Roland DWX-50.
I decided now to open my own lab.
I would like some advise about the choices I made, the best profitability.
1st configuration:

• 3D Scanner: BlueScan by Kreos
• Milling: DWX-50
• Software: exocad
• Oven: Mihm Vogt HT

2nd configuration:

• 3D Scanner: BlueScan by Kreos
• Milling: VHF CAM 5
• Software: exocad
• Oven: Mihm Vogt HT

3rd configuration:

• 3D Scanner: BlueScan by Kreos
• Milling: DWX4
• Software: exocad
• Oven: Mihm Vogt HT
• 3D Print: ASIAGA PRO

4th configuration:

• 3D Scanner: 3shape D750
• Milling: DWX4
• Software: exocad
• Oven: Mihm Vogt HT
• 3D Print: ASIAGA PRO

which is the most profitable: MIHM VOGT VOGT MIHM HT or HT-S?

Thank you

The most important is that the seller are near...to kick ass when the troubles appear.
I have mihn vogt HT-S, but never used the "speed" sintering way, because crowns became ugly.
Good luck.

whatever oven you choose. you seem fixed on the mihm voght though.

i would not print with anything less than dp3500. bego has a new printer theyre trying to market but i have doubts about it. its a cheap enough entry point though.

Whats the word in tunisia? Why do you anticipate the growth?

I say swap out the DWX-50 in Config #1 and replace it with the new DWX-51D

Sorry to hear that. My friends from there say it's a beautiful place, esp. on the coast.

I say save yourself a lot of headaches and outsource it all!

I'm a 3Shape user and have been for a while now...so it's hard for

me to suggest Exocad when I've never used it. That said, I do have

the software now and will be diving into it soon!

Serisouly,

Find a re-seller in your region and demonstrate ALL of your options. I feel

that in this industry, you're only as good as your support. The mill is going

to mill what you tell it to, but when it comes to something going down and

production stopping, how good of a response time are you going to get? It is

worth the extra expense to get your dental equipment from a reputable source

that has a proven track record with their support.

You'll be coming into the light from the dark side soon....

We are using Medit IdenticaBlue 2015 and Yenadent DC-40 milling, very happy with the setup. You can go cheaper on the machine buy going for D15, way better choice then DWX-50 at the moment.
