Q & A: Printed Models, Articulators, ETC.

[PDC]

So I'm just trying to improve my knowledge base about the digital workflow regarding printed models and such. I know there will be a variety of IOS scanners that will be needing models. Some of my questions:

I have DW software with the model builder module, but it only lists a default articulator...does their have to be a library of articulators available somewhere for this to be functional?

What companies other than 3shape, Itero, Cerec, and 3M have articulators made for a printed model. How about Carestream and E4D?

What are the costs of these articulators?...I know Iteros are $125 ea.

Take it away guys!

I think the idea is to print a base that will accept a standard plastic articulator like vertex or orbix.

I paid $220 for the 3 Shape

So this is what I got as the default articulator on DW. I'm not sure what this accepts.

Looks like I can use the Vertex articulators.
