Machine overview

With your S5 you can machine blanks of different materials to create high-quality objects for the dental sector. You can find a list of the materials which you can process with the machine in the manufacturing softwareClosed Term for the software package consisting of DentalCAM and DentalCNC..

The blank changerClosed Machine component which stores multiple blanks in a magazine and which can automatically load them into the working chamber.. When using the search, use a blank changer or a blank magazine instead of the S5 allows you to process up to 8 jobs in succession without having to start each job manually.

The machine is designed for wet and dry machining.

During wet machining, the tools and blanks are constantly being cooled by cooling liquid.

During dry machining, our anti-soiling concept reduces the soiling of sensitive machine parts.

Wet machining requires the optional vhf wet grinding module. The wet grinding module and the required cooling lubricant Tec Liquid Pro are available from customer service.

Working chamber door

The working chamber door locks the working chamber and protects the user from injuries during operation. You can open and close the working chamber door manually.

You cannot open the door when the machine is switched off or while the axes are moving.

 

Working chamber

You can insert blanks and tools into the working chamber. This is where the blanks are machined.

CAM computer

To operate the machine, you must use a computer running Windows® (“CAM computerClosed The computer that is connected to your machine and which runs DentalCAM and DentalCNC.”) and specially designed software (“manufacturing softwareClosed Term for the software package consisting of DentalCAM and DentalCNC.”). The manufacturing softwareClosed Term for the software package consisting of DentalCAM and DentalCNC. consists of the following components:

  • DentalCAMA CAM application for creating and calculating virtual blanks (“jobs”)
  • DentalCNCA CNC application for machining jobs and for maintaining the machine.

To create and design the dental objects you also need a CAD application (sold separately by specialist dealers).

You may want to read the overview of the workflow in DentalCAM and DentalCNC.

Identification plate and serial number

The identification plate of the machine contains identifying information such as the serial number. You can find the identification plate and machine serial number at the following location: Front side of the machine

Axes

This machine has 5 axes: 3 linear axes and 2 rotational axes.

Linear axes X, Y, Z (The spindle moves along these axes.); Rotational axes A, B (The blank holder rotates about these axes.)
