DGSHAPE announces release of next generation DWX-53DC dental mill

DGSHAPE Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Roland DG Corporation and a leading provider of digital fabrication tools worldwide, has announced the release of the DWX-53DC, the next generation desktop milling device that offers a swifter, cleaner production experience for all dental applications and an improved, user-friendly support experience through DGSHAPE CLOUD.

The DWX-53DC's elegant new design features a separately covered automatic tool changer, keeping tools free of additional material waste. Adapters are easily and quickly interchanged in a newly designed automatic disc changer. The milling chamber is sealed to keep milling waste away from other areas of the milling device and includes an ionizer to allow easy removal of PMMA milling waste.

The DWX-53DC has a built-in camera that links the device with DGSHAPE CLOUD support. Users can view live production from anywhere with a mobile phone or tablet. The camera also provides recorded video, so users can troubleshoot their device and monitor maintenance activities. VPanel software has a new user interface that allows users to easily access settings, run updates when available, receive support and manage maintenance, tools and job queues. And a new automated cleaning process takes the work out of removing zirconia dust and waste from the device.

A stronger base, sturdier spindle and a new disc changing process allow quick and easy manufacturing of dental applications. Users can apply a four-millimeter bur to shorten the time necessary to complete the roughing process. The DWX-53DC allows users to produce PMMA applications like dentures and partials at above industry-standard quality, with industry-standard speed.

Bundled with the DWX-53DC are standard and open edge adapters. Users seeking to mill the facial anatomy of long span bridge applications can do so with the newly designed open edge adapter and an increased rotational angle of the B-axis, now a full thirty-five degrees.

"In addition to its sleek exterior redesign, the DWX-53DC dry mill is layered with hidden technology. A series of improvements and new features make it even more user-friendly, swift and dependable," said Hisashi Bito, DGSHAPE Corporation's President of Operations. "Combined with DGSHAPE CLOUD, the DWX-53DC provides a uniquely comprehensive monitoring and support experience, that users can access from any device."
