Delcam Launches iMetric White Light 3D
Dental Scanners
 BIRMINGHAM,
UK, Sep 8, 2010 - Delcam has extended its range of hardware for the healthcare industry with the
launch of two dental scanners, both fully integrated with the company’s DentCAD
software for the design of dental restorations. Both of the Delcam iMetric
scanners use the latest generation of white-light 3D scanning technology,
combined with precision calibration, to provide highly accurate data. The
high level of accuracy ensures that the resulting restorations require minimum
hand finishing and fit perfectly to the patient.
Both of the new Delcam iMetric scanners include easy-to-use software to
manage the capture of the data. They produce a preview of the model after
scanning so that any areas that require extra detail can be re-scanned
instantly. The data is then transferred automatically into the DentCAD software
to complete the design process.
The entry-level version, the D62, allows data to be captured for crown and
bridge work, and inlays and onlays. By using the multi-die fixture
supplied with the scanner, it can capture data up to a five-unit bridge or five
individual models simultaneously.
The more advanced scanner, the D102i, can be used for the full range of
restorations, from simple copings up to a full arch. It also has the ability to
scan models and implant positions for dental bars, implant bridges and
super-structures across a complete arch.
The D102i incorporates more comprehensive software to handle the wider
variety of restorations with the unprecedented accuracy recognized by all Delcam
customers. In addition, it is supplied with a carbon-fibre calibration
plate to ensure consistent accuracy and two multi-die adapters, each capable of
holding nine components. Also included is a navigation ring that eliminates any
inaccuracy that could be caused during the alignment process when scanning of
the top and bottom of the model.
One of the unique benefits of the D62 entry-level model is the ability to
upgrade it easily to the high-end D102i, without the need to purchase a new
scanner. This is achieved with a simple exchange of hardware attachments and the
installation of the more powerful software.
Delcam customers claim that the combination of Delcam’s DentCAD software and
the iMetric scanner gives the level of positional and fit accuracy essential for
all high-end dental restorations, including implant bridges, bars and
superstructures. “Delcam’s Dental CADCAM solution offers an unprecedented
level of accuracy, which results in restorations which have a high fit quality
every time,” said Markus Geier, Technical Support and Training Leader at Diadem,
which operates an international network of dental laboratories. “This means
that Diadem can maintain the very high standards that dental clinics and dental
laboratories have come to expect from us. It is only possible to achieve these
standards with a strong and reliable CADCAM software partner like Delcam.”
