HELSINKI, Finland: Earlier this month, Finnish dental manufacturer Planmeca introduced its latest milling unit for dental clinics, Planmeca PlanMill 40 S. Designed for the chairside fabrication of metal-free dental restorations and appliances, the device will replace its predecessor, Planmeca PlanMill 40, in the company’s product line. PlanMill 40 S can be ordered as of now, with deliveries starting during the fourth quarter of 2016.

“The S in the product’s name stands for Smart—which is exactly what the unit brings to the table,” explained Jukka Kanerva, Vice President of Dental Care Units and CAD/CAM Solutions at Planmeca. According to Kanerva, the milling unit will introduce a level of quality, precision and performance that has not yet been seen in the dental industry. “From usability to performance, the new unit has been built to achieve the smartest and most efficient milling experience in the field,” Kanerva said.

The new milling unit stands out with its intelligent maintenance features, smart tool paths, expanded range of applications and automated tool changer for ten tools. It can be combined with the Planmeca PlanScan intra-oral scanner and the Planmeca PlanCAD Easy design software as part of the Planmeca FIT chairside CAD/CAM system.

According to the company, Planmeca PlanMill 40 S is immediately available for orders everywhere except in North America.

Headquartered in Helsinki, Planmeca distributes its products in over 120 countries worldwide. In 2015, the Planmeca Group generated a turnover of approximately €734 million.
