“We receive patient scans from our client offices so we can design an optimal treatment plan for them” explains Cristina Montiel, laboratory technician at Key Dental. “I need to print 20 models per patient” she said, noting that as the business continues to grow quickly, there can be tremendous demands on the practice’s various 3D printers. Speed, throughput and precision are vital. Previous 3D printing solutions offered the accuracy and definition needed for aligner models but lacked the speed and capability of high volume capacity that Key Dental Technologies needed in order to achieve higher throughput critical to their aligner manufacturing.
