Ammerbuch, September 06, 2018: vhf camfacture AG is expanding its product range this fall \u2013 soon the K5+ will be available with impressive new features. Among other innovations, tool-free blank clamping and a built-in ionizer will significantly speed up operations with the machine.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The continued success of the K5 dental milling machine has prompted vhf to add additional features to the model. The new K5+<\/a> is equipped with the innovative DirectDisc<\/b>Technology for securing discs. Thanks to this tool-free blank clamping system, the machine can be loaded with material even more quickly and easily. In addition, a built-in ionizer neutralizes the static charge of acrylic particles. Improved air circulation in the working area also significantly reduces cleaning time.<\/p>\n

Further highlights of this dry milling machine include a built-in camera for simplified support and an Ethernet port, which increases the stability and flexibility of the connection at the machine\u2019s installation location. Last but not least, the K5+ also stands out from its predecessor visually with its new, clean design in white.<\/p>\n

Dr. Jens Butschan, Division Manager Innovation and Development at vhf, is convinced that the new machine offers customers a number of added benefits: “Users save valuable time thanks to technological innovations from vhf that allow them to work more cost-effectively. As a result, the K5+ is guaranteed to make workflows fast and simple, making the machine the perfect companion when it comes to the digitalization of dental work.”<\/p>\n

vhf has retained proven features of its bestselling 5-axis milling machine \u2013 like the K5, the K5+ can process a wide range of materials and indications, including discs and blocks made of wax, acrylics like PMMA and PEEK, model gypsum, zirconia, hybrid ceramics and composites, as well as cobalt-chrome discs and prefab blanks. In addition, the extremely stable design with a solid cast body guarantees first-rate machining results. The automatic changer with space for 16 tools rounds out the machine\u2019s many versatile features. Similar to all other vhf machines, the K5+ is also completely open in every sense of the word: data can be imported in the standardized STL format, and when selecting circular blanks, blocks, and abutments, the K5+ can be used with materials from any manufacturer.<\/p>\n

The K5+ will make its world debut at the annual Dental Lab & CAD\/CAM Expo sponsored by the Dental Laboratory Owners Association of California (DLOAC) in Orange County, California, from October 11 to 13, 2018, at booth 306.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
