I know there is a cast partial centre using one in Quebec. i would love to get one but quite pricey. Close to $50,000 cnd. You need different machines for chrome and titanium. I understand the results are superb. I think the medium is also quite expensive. It would be great to see the price of the equipment come down significantly

We polish RPD frameworks not C&B

Yes the unit is expensive but when wages/labour savings are factored as well as increase in productivity then the unit is actually cheap.
The electrolyte works out at $7 AUD per unit on our 10D and about $5 AUD for the 100D which is not much different to traditional materials needed to polish an RPD

Then there is the quality factor you cannot polish this consistently by hand and remove as little material and not change geometry all at the same time, so this gives our business an opportunity to offer a superior product

Titanium unit has just been released and you can do all metals on this version including Chrome.
It’s only on the chrome version that you cannot polish Titanium and Aluminium.
Hope this makes sense
