Marginal fit is critical for a restoration's success, but which restoration fabrication method produces a more accurate fit? A new study examined two techniques to find out. Researchers compared the ...

CAD for CAM, or computer-aided design for computer-aided manufacturing, is all about bridging the gap between the designer’s vision and the manufacturer’s process. But from working with diverse CAD ...

A team of U.S. researchers has used a computer aided design and manufacturing (CAD-CAM) process to guide an atomic force microscope (AFM). According to them, this automated technique is 'paving the ...

"Introduction to CAD and CAM for Machining" provides a foundational overview of CAD and CAM systems and how they are used in CNC machining operations. While CAD greatly streamlines the process of part ...

LOS ANGELES. (Ivanhoe Newswire) – It’s the stuff of science fiction showing up in dental offices. Dentists and prosthodontists are using computers to make teeth, implants, and dentures. It’s a process ...

Maintaining a restorative material's strength after grinding and polishing is a key concern for practitioners using a chairside CAD/CAM process. However, between glass-ceramic materials and so-called ...

The stuff of science fiction is showing up in dental offices. Dentists and prosthodontists are using computers to make teeth, implants and dentures. It's a process called computer-aided design and ...

To speak of the aerospace industry is to imply “precision”: One instantly thinks of beautifully engineered airliners, awe-inspiring jet fighters, and rockets to the moon and beyond. Aircrafts are ...

Edgecam’s Part Modeler ensures that legacy information stored as 2D design data can be used without total part re-modeling. A 2D drawing can be converted automatically into a 3D model by selecting the ...

Industrial 3D scanning is shifting from a separate, post-process inspection step to an integrated, real-time quality control method. Combining metrology-grade hardware, optical triangulation ...
