Fast forward to design

Open design

We've considered every small detail. Placement of models is intuitive and fast thanks to the open scanner design and magnetic place-and-scan system. And auto-start ensures scanning begins as soon as your models are in place.

Scanner tools

We’ve introduced new scanner tools such as a height adapter, articulator plate and a new impression fixture, that open up new workflow efficiency possibilities. But we will of course also continue to support most older tools.

Share between stations

For many labs, it’s cost effective to share a scanner. Therefore, we’ve simplified scanner sharing options between workstations through the open design and ethernet.

Flexible workflows

This scanner goes far beyond the crown & bridge or implant bar. From upper/lower, die-in-model, articulator and impressions, what you can achieve is virtually limitless.
