Highlights

Simply EASY

Optimize your digital workflow, enjoy maximum freedom and achieve perfect results with optimum efficiency.

5-axis dry milling at the highest level. With extremely simple operation.

Best results with ease

The machine has been developed with an optimized weight of only 47 kg, and has been manufactured without compromise from high-quality industrial components, thus fulfilling our claim of Creating Perfection. How do you benefit? The E5 achieves impressive, first-class results!

No compressed air needed – due to airtool

One great innovation of the E5 is that it uses no compressed air: The E5 requires neither an external compressed air connection nor an integrated compressor, which is possible with our patent-pending airtool.

The turbine blades on the airtool use the high speeds of the high-frequency spindle to generate a powerful air flow which keeps the workpiece free from dust and chippings. These are removed by suction.

90° processing – for perfect anterior teeth

With its C-shaped disc holder, the E5 machines anterior teeth at a 90° angle, with the milling tool oriented perpendicular to the vestibular surface. This significantly reduces residual material in tight interproximal spaces and undercuts. At the same time, it delivers improved detail accuracy and superior surface quality.

Maximum freedom

The E5 not only allows you to machine discs; you can use the appropriate holder to process up to 6 blocks of different sizes with minimal effort.

Automatic tool changer for 16 standard tools plus an airtool

Despite its compact design, the E5 offers a generous working chamber with plenty of space in which to clamp the workpieces or load the automatic tool changer.
