Challenge
The centre served 40 clinics and had outgrown two older 3-axis machines. Queues formed every afternoon, and the owners needed throughput without adding floor space.
A production centre serving 40 clinics scaled to 300 units per day while holding remakes at 1.2%.
The centre served 40 clinics and had outgrown two older 3-axis machines. Queues formed every afternoon, and the owners needed throughput without adding floor space.
We installed four SDM6T units in the same footprint as the previous two machines, standardised on MillBox with nested strategies for zirconia and PMMA, and set preventive maintenance every 400 spindle hours.
Output reached 300 units per day across two shifts with a 1.2% remake rate. Spindle uptime stayed above 98% over the first year thanks to the maintenance schedule and remote monitoring.
