Did you have any issues with tears or separations printing such a large part with that material?
Here is a link to the best practices documentation for each material. It provides orientation recommendations for the best accuracy: http://infocenter.3dsystems.com/bestpractices/dlp-best-practices/nextdent-5100/3d-sprint/materialsTried out the C&B MFH on a hybrid implant case last week. sure, why not try a 5 implant provisional/ verification jig. Yikes! I got an education on part orientation and accuracy. After 3 misprints it actually worked. Check out the minimal supports on the print that came out accurate. Then I printed a model with analog sockets and a gingival mask generated from the scanned working model to see how it all would compare. Everything fit well. I’m not the best photographer, but here are some pics:
Jay, Are you doing a denture base? Different resin material than g-mask Check here for setting up a denture base:

Sam ,@LarryRDC Hi Larry, Is the hood a requirement or just a preference? At our print farm, you only notice the smell of the resin once you have 25+ Form 2's in the same room.
The Form Wash is a great piece of kit. : )
No, I'm trying to use the material for a different application, one that is not supported by Nextdent. I'm not sure that your part, given it's size, is supported either but was encouraged when I saw it.
Actually the elastic G-mask resin is from Nextdent.
Sam ,
I'm a one man operation based at home. With everything all in one small room, it did give me a headache. I also have allergies....The gingival mask is the worst, lol.
No more problems since I installed the hood.
Tell you a sad story…
We were considering the Asiga not long ago and whip mix offered to print some models for us so we could get a comparison. Two weeks after we sent the file still no models - sigh.
someone did follow up to see what we thought of the printer… To which I responded “I wouldn’t know you never sent me the model so I could do the comparison”
They were very responsive at that point, but I simply said “any Time I’m considering a new technology price is the last thing I look at. First is the utility of the piece of equipment within the workflows I want to create. Second is the complexity of using and maintaining the device, because scalability is important and training and maintenance can affect that. Third is the level of responsiveness and support from the person I’m purchasing it from, because I’m not yet an expert in the new technology, I need other experts to guide me while I’m becoming one. Fourth is price.”
Give me a call when you have a chance. 513.680.1512.So I am about to purchase a nextdent (made for amann girrbach) . I got a good offer that also includes training in amann girrbach factory. Any last words ? I have an offer for Asiga also, but not as good. Is Nextdent worth its money or asiga is still better?
.Give me a call when you have a chance. 513.680.1512.
Decision will be made after Chicago's mid winter show.I am curious as to what you decided? Let us know
