I would like to discuss the major differences I see between my CAD design and different CAM/ machine combinations. I would see differences from time to time and just assumed it was my design. I recently started toying around with milling in house. Still experimenting with different materials and all that good stuff. I sent the same file to a milling center and also milled it myself. I immediately noticed a big difference in my occlusal and interproximal contacts compared to theirs? I then sent another case to another center and had the same fits i had internally. Sent that same file to another with high occlusions and very tight interproximals? I have been doing this on and off for a few weeks now. Bridges are another major difference. Fits of the same file vary greatly.
The differences are always the same with the same milling centers. Just wondering what others have experienced? I keep hearing these greatly varying occlusal settings etc. wondering if it has to do with the CAM? I do know that with Sum3D and my Roland, I get a finished result identical to whats on the screen of my design. I have heard others leaving occlusions wide open in their design software just to get light occlusal after the fact.
