Milling Centres and Digital Labs

CAD/CAM operations that need disc supply as predictable as the milling schedule.

The situation

What This Buyer Is Actually Dealing With

A milling centre converts machine hours into restorations. The constraint is rarely design time and rarely the machine; it is whether the right disc is in the rack when the job is queued. Zirconia, wax and PMMA are bought on a schedule, not on demand, and a supplier who cannot hold that schedule costs machine hours that cannot be recovered.

Empty holders on a booked machine

Machine time is the cost base. A disc that has not arrived is a direct loss.

Format mismatches

98 mm, 95 mm and Amann Girrbach holder cuts are not interchangeable, and a wrong disc is dead stock.

Batch-to-batch variation

Zirconia shrinkage is batch-specific. Inconsistent supply means requalifying sintering settings.

Discs ordered separately from everything else

Discs shipped on their own carry freight that a consolidated order would have absorbed.

What You Need From a Supplier

  • 98 mm open-format discs in zirconia, wax and PMMA from one source
  • Amann Girrbach holder formats where the machine requires them
  • Batch shrinkage factors supplied with the disc
  • Discs consolidated with the rest of the laboratory order

Typical Scenarios

  1. Standing disc stock against a milling schedule

    Order zirconia, wax and PMMA together on a repeating cycle so the rack never empties.

  2. Try-in before final material

    Mill the design in wax or PMMA, verify it, then commit to zirconia.

  3. Finishing after sintering

    Sintered diamond instruments and rubber polishers take milled zirconia to a finished surface.

Answers

Milling Centres and Digital Labs: Questions We Get

What disc diameters do you supply?

98 mm and 95 mm, plus discs cut for Amann Girrbach holders. Check your machine's holder before ordering; the formats are not interchangeable.

Is the shrinkage factor supplied with zirconia discs?

Yes. It is batch-specific and must be entered from the batch you are actually milling.

Can discs ship with the rest of our order?

Yes, and it is the cheaper way to buy them.
