ZIRKONZAHN – OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL M1 MILLING UNIT COMPACT LINE – VERSION: 13/05/2021
GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE MILLING UNIT
The complete Compact Line is particularly compact and space saving and is characterised by its
extreme short milling times thanks to the fast engines. It can be combined in an optimal way with
the Zirkonzahn Scanner S600 ARTI and the user-friendly Zirkonzahn.Software. To avoid any
damage, the mechanical, pneumatic and electronic components are arranged in a sturdy tubular
frame structure whose four surfaces are made with special glass and equipped with a metal panel
on the rear side. Vibrations are dampened by rubber buffers.
The chosen version determines which indications can be processed with which materials:
With the
M1 Abutment milling unit
it is possible to produce individual titanium abutments out
of precast titanium abutment blanks (Raw-Abutments
®
) in a fast way. The
M1 Soft milling unit
is particularly suitable for the dry processing of soft materials such as Sintermetall and zirconia.
With the integrated wet processing function, up to four glass ceramic blanks can be milled in a
single milling process with the
M1 Wet milling unit
. With its orbit built on four bearings and the
integrated wet processing function, the
M1 Wet Heavy Metal milling unit
is ideal for the milling
of hard metals such as titanium.
Functional description of the milling unit
The M1 milling unit is conceived for 4 axes processing (M1 Abutment) or 5+1 axes processing
with simultaneous milling technology. The CNC control data of the toolpaths are generated by
the CAM system. The entire milling process, including tool changing, is automated and takes
place in the machine's enclosed milling chamber. The process can be observed by the user at
any time via the integrated camera. Loading/unloading the orbit and the tool magazine, starting
the milling process, calibrating and cleaning the machine are the only processes that have to be
performed manually.
