I am very new to milling. Dwx-4 has room for 2 tools. What tools are recommended for Lava Ultimate? Would it be the same or Enamic?
Thank You

Hi Glenn,
I just finished installing the drivers and connecting the dwx-4 per the manual. Did not see a cd for easyshapecam in the package and their is no instructions in the manual regarding the easyshapecam. Am I missing something?

Heidari,

Roland DGA (Digital Group America) bundles EasyShape CAM with the DWX-4 in our region. In other regions it might be offered as an option. Who did you buy your DWX-4 from?

Hi again Glenn,
Which two of the composite burs do you recomend? .6mm and 2mm Or. 1mm and 2mm. I was thinking .6 and 2 so I would have gross reduction and detail. Also what happens if you use other types of burs with Lava ultimate instead of new composite burs?

You can use carbide ball end mills with LAVA Ultimate. The sizes and tool type depend on the CAM strategies. Some people use a 2mm and 1mm strategy for speed while others use a 1mm .8 or .6 for better anatomy.

Ron,
Are your milling burs tested on Lava Ult and Vita Enemic or just zirconia.

Guys, having trouble getting support from Roland even though I called and verified serial number with Roland before bidding on eBay thinking I was getting a good deal. I am missing the easy shape cam software and Roland rep wants to charge $5000 for the easyshape cam software that comes with the DWX-4 mill. Anyone have a copy or any suggestions?

Burs are for zirconia. One of my good customers has a DWX-4. Maybe he can help you out with questions you might have.
