BIRMINGHAM, UK: Held at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham on 17 and 18 May, Dental Technology Showcase 2024 attracted both local and international dental suppliers and provided cutting-edge solutions for dental professionals. At this specialist exhibition in dentistry in the UK, UnionTech, along with its subsidiary EvoDent, presented a comprehensive range of dental 3D-printing solutions, including the E128 and E230 desktop chairside dental 3D printers and the D300 fully automated dental 3D printer.

E128: Desktop chairside dental 3D printing expert

The EvoDent E128 desktop chairside dental 3D printer employs liquid crystal display technology and boasts a compact design.

The EvoDent E128 3D printer uses liquid crystal display (LCD) technology to meet the high customisation and cost-efficiency demands for dental model fabrication with a desktop-sized footprint. With a resolution of 6K, a pixel size of 50 μm and a build volume of 128 × 81 × 150 mm, the E128 achieves efficient and rapid printing of dental models with outstanding accuracy. The printer boasts a maximum printing speed of 130 mm/h and can complete a model in as little as 20 minutes, thus fully meeting the speed and customisation requirements of dental clinics.

Operating within the 405 nm wavelength, the E128 offers excellent material compatibility, supporting a wide range of dental resin materials commonly used in the market. Whether using high-speed or high-precision materials, the E128’s compatibility maximises the inherent characteristics of each material, meeting various oral treatment needs.

E230: Greater build volume, higher efficiency

The EvoDent E230 desktop chairside dental 3D printer features a build volume large enough to allow the simultaneous construction of six to eight dental models in a single print.

The EvoDent E230 3D printer features a 219 × 124 × 190 mm build volume, allowing the simultaneous construction of six to eight dental models in a single print. The printer is able to print to its maximum build capacity in just 20 minutes, significantly enhancing production and operational efficiency and thereby catering for various applications in the dental field. Using LCD technology with 8K resolution and a 30 μm pixel size, the E230 also achieves excellent precision at this high printing speed, ensuring extraordinary print quality with fine detail.

In addition to its speed and precision, the E230 integrates the latest technology in its optimised and upgraded printing chamber. The intelligent temperature control system reduces preheating time, further improving printing efficiency. During printing, the temperature control ensures stability and compatibility with the requirements of various high-performance resin materials. The E230 also features a separate resin chamber that provides automatic resin replenishment, simplifying and streamlining the printing process and freeing users of this task.

D300: Full automation in 3D printing

The latest automated masterpiece from EvoDent, the D300 employs digital light processing (DLP) 3D-printing technology, demonstrating UnionTech’s advancement in the field of DLP 3D printing. Targeting medium to large dental laboratories, the D300 provides fully automated production of restoration and implant models, including the processes of layout, task assignment, resin replenishment, printing, removal and sorting, enabling 24/7 unmanned operation and redefining automation in dental fabrication.

The D300 is equipped with dual 4K projection units, coupled with a build volume of 258 × 230 × 120 mm, achieving breakthroughs in printing precision and speed. With a production capacity of up to 180 dental models within 24 hours, it can achieve high-precision fabrication with a deviation of only 0.05 mm while strictly controlling each printing cycle to within 2 hours, effectively balancing speed and precision.

Diverse applications of EvoDent printers

At Dental Technology Showcase 2024, UnionTech presented practical applications of its 3D printers, focusing not only on its core E-series and D-series products but also on the latest dental applications of 3D printing, such as orthodontic models, implant models, restoration models and surgical guides. The company provided intuitive practical experiences to visitors, in pursuit of its goal of deepening the professional practice and application of additive manufacturing technology in dentistry.

UnionTech leads in technological innovation and is committed to advancing technology and improving production efficiency in the dental field. The capabilities of EvoDent printers signify UnionTech’s continuous achievements and the expansion of its technological applications in the dental industry. In the future, UnionTech will continue to pursue efficiency through technology and drive the industry by innovation, seeking to create further comprehensive solutions for application in dentistry.
