“The Stratasys DentaJet XL solution is designed specifically for digital dental labs that need to deliver a high volume of applications without sacrificing quality, helping them overcome significant challenges in finding and retaining skilled technicians as they work to meet growing market demand,” said Ronen Lebi, Vice. President, Stratasys Dental “It’s the most efficient manufacturing solution we’ve developed to date, geared toward producing crown and bridge models, implants and aligners, and surgical guides simultaneously at scale.”
The new PolyJet™ multi-material 3D printer is designed to operate in a production environment with minimal human intervention. With advanced software print preparation and management features, as well as unattended printing and curing, labs can reduce their labor costs by up to 90 percent. The introduction of new printing methods and larger containers results in up to 67% lower cost per part. This new printer can be integrated with new validated, fast and long workflows after batch processing for support removal. It also allows the simultaneous printing of two materials. And it can improve lab productivity and reduce costs, making it the go-to solution for high-volume production labs around the world.
“Integrating the DentaJet XL 3D printer into our lab has greatly improved our digital workflow,” said James Dobson, Vice President, Digital Production, Dobson Ortho Laboratories and one of the first to implement the solution. “With the large print tray, 4x larger resin containers and heat exchange capabilities, we have already achieved significant material and labor savings Creating print jobs has become extremely fast and simple with automatic component insertion functions.
“The new Super High-Speed operation has allowed us to significantly increase the production of clear aligners by almost 50%, without adding additional labor and at a greatly reduced cost per part,” he said. Prof. Armando Razionale, Airnivol, and one of the first customers to implement the solution in Europe. “Furthermore, by integrating the DentaJet XL with our automatic support removal workflow, we save tremendous time and labor in the final stage of production. It’s almost like adding a virtual lab technician!”
Early DentaJet XL customers were able to achieve remarkable production results:
-
Up to 16 implant cases (surgical guide and model) in 6 hours 30 minutes
-
Up to 102 crown & bridge models in 4 hours 31 minutes
-
Up to 28 orthodontic models in 6 hours 37 minutes
-
Up to 36 alignment arches in 2 hours 14 minutes
Notable features of this new solution include:
-
Non-stop printing, even for the largest jobs with 4 kg resin tanks and changeover.
-
Significantly reduced print preparation times and integrated fleet management with intuitive GrabCAD Print software.
-
Increased the speed of producing clean alignment arcs by up to 30 percent with super high speed mode.
-
Dual media printing, allowing labs to increase throughput by printing two media simultaneously.
-
Efficient post-processing with built-in third-party workflows to remove large batch support. This streamlines processes and saves time and labor.
