Hello Mr. Greenberg and hyperDENT users!
My name is Tartea Daniel Adrian. I’m beginner using hyperDENT. I’m very happy to find this Forum and hope to find also some support from your practice experience. Until now, I milled just Zirconium, PMMA and Wax. Instead of capabilities of my milling machine I haven’t milled metal, peek and glass ceramic. So, I need to adapt strategy to my machine in accordance with this materials and specific tools.
First of all, short about my CAD/CAM system:
CAD – DentalWings
CAM – hyperDENT (of course)
Milling Machine – Yenadent D43, 5 axis, 2,5 kw spindle, 60000 rpm, dry/wet system. It’s prepared to mill all dental material on the market and maybe all dental parts needed in dentistry.
I propose two themes for discussion:
1. Milling tools
2. hyperDENT Strategy 1. Milling tools I find helpful to every hyperDENT user, if everyone share from personal experience. I mean, which tools diameter and type are the better choice to mill Metal (Ti and Co-Cr),Peek, Zirconium, Ceramic etc. More important is to go further in details and to write about tools recommendations, like:
roughing, restmachining,
overall finishing, finishing, margin line, screw channel pre-drilling and drilling, drilling abutment basis geometry etc. I prepared a table, maybe is helpful to fill it with tools information. If someone have another idea which is much better like a table, please write. Is important for every user to understand and to use best tools for best millings results.
Here a link with table in .jpg format. It's made in MS Excel, but I don't know to insert file here.

Files in *.hddbexp format can show us which settings are done for each material in accordance with producer using tips. I mean for example, spindle speed, feed rate, tools type etc.
I hope that these ideas written here by me find support among hyperDENT users.
Best regards,
Daniel
