Dental Machine C5
Easy to use, the added value to your laboratory
C5 is the “medium size” milling machine by Dental Machine, specifically developed for dental labs or dental clinics, which need to use CAD-CAM technology widely and an important return on their investment.
C5 is a table-top, 5-axis, numerically controlled milling/grinding machine, which is very easy to use with 5 axes interpolated continuously. It can mill almost any dental item (crown, bridges, models, full dentures, etc.) in any material (wax, PMMA, PEEK, other resins, composites, zirconia, aluminium, titanium, Co-Cr, etc.) or grind materials such as ceramics, lithium disilicate, etc., both wet and dry.
C5 – Technical specifications
Open system
Use of standard STL files in input for the best compatibility with other components of the system. No commitment to use our materials / tools and no mandatory yearly software updating: it will work forever even if not updated. And you can also choose the colour (RAL table or carbon fibre) you prefer.
The Highest Precision
Movement on XYZ axes with precision ball screws and backlash recovery, directly driven by brushless motors with precision encoders for continuous position check. The 2 rotary axes have the same motors and zero backlash gearboxes.
5 Axes in Continuous
5 axes managed in continuous are needed for modern implantology, which places implants in the best position and best angle, with no restriction. For simpler jobs, 5 axes are often useful to reduce the blank thickness (less time and less consumption of materials and tools).
16 Tools Available
Automatic tool change, 16 tools on board; automatic measure of tool length (high precision) and check for tool breakage. Mainly build in aluminium alloy (Anticorodal 6082) to reduce the machine weight.

C5: EASY TO USE
TECHNOLOGY
1 kW electro-spindle with rotation speed from 18.000 rpm up to 60.000 rpm. Quick-insertion blank holder for 98,3 mm disk with step. Option: tooling for hard-material wet milling. On request, equipment for wet grinding of hard materials (disilicates and alike). Connection to external suction system, turned on automatically when needed. Status of the machine shown by the colour of the lights. Bus based on CANopen technology to provide extreme reliability.
THE CAM SOFTWARE
The CAM software – Dental Millbox by Sum3D (OEM version) – is supplied with the milling machine. It is perfectly integrated with major dental CADs and very easy to use. With a click you can perform thickness optimization, automatic positioning on the blank (new or used), acceptance of proposed pinning, checking for collision etc. and includes milling strategies for most materials used in dental sector. Machine control by an external PC or tablet (not included) with Windows operating system.
CUSTOMER SUPPORT
In addition to the ease of use and careful training, Dental Machine offers the most important thing in dental CAD CAM sector: a careful and customised support – even out of standard working hours – to his clients to help them change from traditional technology to CAD CAM. Ethernet / Wi-Fi Connection for remote support.

Why 5 axes
Modern oral implantology places the implants in best position and at the best angle for each specific implant. Thus the manufacture of the prosthesis needs a 5-axis machining and even better if the axes move simultaneously.
However, 5 axes are useful on traditional jobs to place the prosthesis- to- be in the disc, minimizing its thickness (higher speeds, lower consumption of materials and less tool wear). The lower cost of a 4-axis machine does not justify its limits; thus Dental Machine stopped manufacturing 4-axis machines some years ago.
K10: the automatic disc changer
Optimise and reorganise Your work
The automatic disc changer is now available for a relevant increase of your performance on Dental Machine’s product line. It can be applied as an accessory for a new machine or as a retrofit for those machines (A5, C5, C6) which have been already working.
