Utilizing the PrograMill One

The PrograMill One is reportedly the world’s smallest 5-axis milling machine. The machine is wireless and app-enabled, giving the user flexibility. It also reportedly offers a short processing time.

The milling machine is indicated for a variety of options, including inlays, onlays, veneers, partial crowns, crowns and bridges up to 45 mm block length.

5-axis Turn Milling:

Ivoclar Vivadent’s 5-axis turn-milling technology means the block being processed moves around the tool. This reportedly keeps machining times short while reducing tool wear, and it results in outstanding surface quality and an excellent fit of restorations. Additionally, depending on the materials and indications, individual validated machining strategies are used, which is said to reduce rework to a minimum.

Automated:

A camera integrated within the mill automatically records all information on materials and tools. This reportedly makes using different materials easy and loading very convenient. In addition, material, shade and translucency are automatically read in by means of the Data Matrix Code, which is printed on the block. The OSD (Optical Status Display) visually informs the user about the current operating status.

App-Enabled:

The mill is wireless and can be controlled from anywhere within the laboratory through an app. The app keeps the user informed of the machine’s status. It features order management, which allows the user to view the order list and current processing status, and it control the 5-axis block changer. The app also allows users to see the tool status and have control of the 8-position tool changer. Finally, the app gives the user an overview of machine data, the machine’s status and the filter unit’s status.
