Core3dcentres offers equipment and consulting to help labs mill in-house

New Products

Core3dcentres has expanded its offering to dental laboratories with a range of equipment options to mill in your own laboratory. The company has so far operated as a milling centre for dental laboratories, producing everything from copings and frameworks to full contour restorations in a variety of materials including zirconia, e.max and metal.


With a slew of small- to medium-sized milling machines now being marketed to laboratories from several vendors, Core3dcentres has entered the fray in response to growing concerns over ongoing service and support of these often complex systems.

"We're aware of labs starting to buy complex dental technology solutions based on price and salesmanship alone without fully thinking it through," said Rob Stack, Laboratory Business Manager at Core3dcentres. "They then turn to us because the equipment they bought does not deliver on the vendor's promises.

"Buying a dental milling machine is actually just the start. There is no value in being the owner of a complex dental system without the skills to operate and maintain it. Furthermore, vendors of milling machines will not necessarily be capable of pairing your new system with scanning equipment and vendors of scanning equipment will not necessarily be capable of pairing their scanners with the production technology. Additionally, consideration needs to be given to what sintering solution can be paired with a specific setup."

Mr Stack said that the evolution of CAD/CAM in dental technology is now seeing laboratories starting to realise the value of hybrid solutions, purchasing lower cost in-house milling machines for milling zirconia, wax and PMMA and then outsourcing restorations produced from materials like metal and e.max that require far larger and vastly more expensive equipment to produce.

"Our complete production solution now includes offering laboratories the opportunity to purchase their own milling machine that we will then support with our digital dental production knowledge. This combines training and support to deliver a functioning production solution."

Core3dcentres specialise in digital dental manufacturing and importantly the digitisation of existing businesses and their practical transformation to digital manufacture. Core3dcentres takes an holistic approach by providing the installation, training and ongoing support which is required to keep these complex systems running and producing.

Our customers go through initial training at their premises but also have the technical support over the telephone or via remote login to their systems when required. We are a partner for the move into the world of digital dental technology. Being a partner means that we leave a customer's laboratory with a working production solution.
