TrimExpert
When a dental practice can save money on materials and production, they can pass those savings on to their customers. So, when production of a deliverable, such as dental appliances, is brought in-house, both the practice and its patients save money as well as time. The savings and convenience help to set a practice apart in a crowded dental market.
Axsys Dental Solutions’ TrimExpert, the industry's first-ever automated trimming solution, allows clinicians to create and trim a variety of dental appliances right in their office in as little as 30 seconds. This solution can facilitate manual or automated loading of the appliance and model onto a custom fixture on the machine where an accurate trim line is created.
Through TrimExpert’s highly streamlined process, the trim line and 5-axis machining program needed to complete the trimming process is automatically generated and sent to the practice’s Versamill Dental Machining Center to trim the appliance. TrimExpert facilitates the automation of this process when a batch of appliances needs to be machined.
The final trimmed dental appliance can be customized to fit the clinician’s needs as well as the practice’s existing IT infrastructure. The TrimExpert solution is scalable, and automation components can be added incrementally as practices add more cases.
"Axsys’ extensive manufacturing and CAD/ CAM experience is unlike any other supplier or distributor of this technology,” said Khaldoun Attar, DDS. “Nobody else can do what they do.”
