[QUOTE="Glenn Kennedy, post: 298647, member: 6563"] Lets compare apples to apples: The Asiga printer is $14,000, in the letter that started this thread the discounted price was $13000 The NextDent 5100 is $10,000 Both printers will use a light box for curing and both will likely use the bottle mixer. An extra resin tray for the 5100 is $900. You can buy the 5100 plus 2 extra resin trays for less than the cost of the Asiga printer with no extra trays. The Nextdent resin tray will last about 900 prints so the cost per print job is $1. The Asiga tray costs less but it does not last as long and therefore increases the cost per part. Cheaper is not better. The Nextdent system is designed to work specifically with Nextdent resins to provide a complete end to end workflow for dental labs that want bio compatible 3D printed parts in the widest range of resin and shade options. Scan, pour, print. No settings to adjust or material properties to figure out and "dial in". [/QUOTE]
