3D printer produces dental parts with delicate and fine details

Stratasys Ltd., a leading global provider of 3D printing and additive manufacturing solutions, introduced the Objet Eden260VS Dental Advantage 3D Printer. Engineered to meet the demanding production needs of mid-size dental labs and mid-to-large-sized orthodontic labs, this machine supersedes the Objet Eden260V Dental Advantage platform with new capabilities.

The Objet Eden260VS Dental Advantage adds a soluble support mode previously unavailable on PolyJet dental solutions.

The new 3D printer is compatible with all Stratasys dental materials – VeroDent, VeroDentPlus and VeroGlaze – and it adds a soluble support option, previously unavailable on PolyJet dental systems. Soluble support technology allows the easy cleaning of dental parts with fine features, such as small removable die inserts in dental models. Additional benefits include automated support removal, which offers further advantages for dental labs by enabling lower labor cost per part.

The Objet Eden260VS Dental Advantage supports applications including stone models, surgical guides and veneers.

Users have the ability to switch between soluble and water jet modes to balance low-cost automation with the occasional need for hands-on support removal.

VeroGlaze with full biocompatibility

The dental material, VeroGlaze, now meets the requirements of a Bio-compatible photopolymer. This material suits applications requiring short-term, mucosal-membrane contact of up to 24 hours, enabling dental labs to use VeroGlaze to create veneer try-ins in precise A2 teeth color shade.
