Thanks for your reply.
I will look into the CAD settings.
I have milled the same crown in both versions of Millbox, and the 19 vers consistently produces a smoother margin, whereas 22 will have little divets and occasionally minor chipping at margin.
Hi everyone.
Just looking for an explanation for why the margin outlines are different in these 2 examples please.
Both outlines are at 0.15 but you can see one outer margin line is further out than the other example.
The line that is further out generally mills a better margin than the other...
Sorry for delay replying.
So...i went back to 2019 which was much better. Am now on 2020 vers of Millbox. chipping seems to have ceased but still had issues with tight fits to the ti bases. checked and rechecked strategies / burs etc and slowly dialing it in. Fits are still tight but better. I...
I have actually gone back to my 2019 vers of Millbox. The crowns and implants are finishing much nicer again:(
Not sure what is happening.
The 22 vers is way to aggressive.
I can hear the mill bogging down a little as it starts with the 2mm bur. I never had that sound in the older version. The...
Thanks for replies in previous post. Very helpful and much appreciated.
I had another funny one happen on Friday and would love to hear what you all think.
I milled a crown to fit a Straumann NC, 5.5 h, GH 1.0, and the crown milled much longer than the design (see pics)
DME's are latest from...
Thanks all for replies.
I changed out my 1mm and .6 bur.
I am using Sierra Mid Range. Perhaps I need to keep a closer eye on wear, although haven't had any chipping on normal crown margins.
I have cleaned the Collett and upgraded Millbox to the 22 vers.
Seems to be finishing nicer now, but...
Have adjusted cavity fit in millbox to -0.01. (crowns were very tight on to the ti bases)
Will replace appropriate burs. Will look at other tips you suggested and see how it goes.
A matter of trial and error from here.
Thanks for the help Davor

Hi all....
Haven't posted for quite some time.
Having a problem with Occasional chipping on margins. Sometimes they are perfect and other times chipping.
I milled 2 crowns back to back yesterday. One chipped and the other was fine.
Both are Straumann wn. Mill is a DX52 with newish burs...
HI all
Had a strange thing happen today whilst using 3shape.
Scanning crowns was normal, but when I went to scan an implant, it wouldn't connect to scanit dental.
No implant type would scan, yet every other order type would. I even tried downloading new DME's, but made no difference.
Using 2021...
My lab is only small, but we typically work on 5 a day, and we still do a lot of FGC.
We also could be doing splints, mouthguards snore guards as well.
If a pfm comes in, we just start on it, and finish between other jobs.
