Release Notes DentalCAM & DentalCNC 8.10

(K5, K5+, R5, E5) Validated strategy for Ivoclar Ivotion oversize process available

You can now create jobs for the Ivoclar Ivotion oversize process in DentalCAM and mill them with a validated strategy on vhf dental machines.

This function complements the strategy already implemented for monolithic Ivotion discs.

You need a specific Ivotion mounting aid for each machine type. Retrofit kits are available from customer service.

(N4, N4+, S1, S2, S5) Biodenta PreFAB-4 abutment holder is now supported

You can now activate and use the Biodenta PreFAB-4 abutment holder in DentalCAM.

Tool collisions due to incorrect calculations are now avoided

DentalCNC either cancels faulty jobs during machining or does not start them at all.

Warning message for fully reduced bars only

If you have only used fully reduced bars in a job, DentalCAM will now warn you before calculating the job.

(E4) Dry machining tank is now listed as a prerequisite in the material list

DentalCAM now lists the dry machining tank in the material list as a prerequisite for corresponding materials.

 

With individual machining, objects are now available earlier in the residual material display

In option Tool usage sequence, if you select the entry Individual processing, objects are now also calculated individually one after the other instead of in parallel. This allows you to check already calculated objects in the residual material display while the total job is still being calculated.

 

ChairsideCAM: The scaling factor is now displayed in the nesting view

ChairsideCAM now permanently displays the defined scaling factor in the nesting view.

 

The release notes are now also linked in DentalCAM

You can now also call up the current release notes again in DentalCAM via the program information.

 

(E3, E4, E5) The multi-machine control has been improved

Scaling factors below 1.2 no longer overwrite other values

The following error occurred if you had activated different scaling factors for X, Y and Z: If you entered a scaling factor smaller than 1.2 for one dimension, this value overwrote deviating values for the other dimensions.

This behavior has been corrected.

Correctly adopted scaling factors

Selected cavities in the blank display are marked again in the list

If you selected a cavity in the blank display when the machining function Edit cavities is open, the corresponding list entry was not selected.

This behavior has been corrected.

 

The residual material display no longer shows any removed material for abutments

The residual material display for prefabricated abutments showed material that was removed during machining.

This behavior has been corrected.

Fully reduced bars between object and sinter bar are now correctly separated

Fully reduced bars between object and sinter bar were partially separated at the sintered bar instead of at the object.

This behavior has been corrected.

Pre-assigned height of sinter bars is now adjusted to the disc height if required

When creating a sinter bar, DentalCAM adopts the height and width of the previously created sinter bar to simplify operation. This was also the case if the following disc was not sufficient for the bar height. If the value was not corrected manually, calculation errors caused tool breakage.

This behavior has been corrected. DentalCAM Immediately adjusts the pre-assigned height of the sinter bar to the disc height.

Machining of drill holes in cobalt chrome has been improved

When machining cobalt chrome, a strategy correction has improved the accuracy of fit of drill holes.

Tool collisions eliminated

With different machining strategies and materials, the tool could collide with the disc.

This behavior has been corrected.

Error with open sinter bars eliminated

Open sinter bars now work as intended again.

Drops in cavities are prevented

It could happen that DentalCAM incorrectly positioned drops in cavities and calculated them accordingly.

This behavior has been corrected.

Improved error handling for attachments

If Matrix or Patrix were marked incorrectly for attachments, DentalCAM displayed an incomprehensible error message or crashed.

This behavior has been corrected.

Vita CAD Temp multicolor can now be properly edited again

The following undesirable behavior occurred:

• Instead of being placed on the blocks, objects were placed in the center of the blank display after import.

• When nesting Vita CAD Temp multicolor blocks, the block holder was displayed with the wrong orientation. This led to tool breakages and a deviation between the nesting and machining position at R5 .

 

This behavior has been corrected. Selection and machining are now possible again.

Restoring jobs works as expected again

Errors could occur when restoring jobs.

This behavior has been corrected.

Objects can now be moved precisely even with a remote connection

If you were working with your CAM computer The computer that is connected to your machine and which runs DentalCAM and DentalCNC. via a remote connection, it was only possible to move objects in the nesting view step by step. This made precise positioning difficult.

This behavior has been corrected.

(E4, N4+, Z4) Residual material display for CAD/CAM integration with exocad ChairsideCAD has been corrected

For objects calculated with active CAD/CAM integration with exocad ChairsideCAD , the residual material display was incorrect.

This behavior has been corrected.

(E3) Machining time now also shows values below 1 minute

(Z4) Delayed display initialization fixed

Unintentional starting of jobs is now prevented

Manual cavity check: specification for oversize has been corrected

Program remains in the foreground when restoring jobs
