N ew calculator allows dental labs to calculate monthly cost savings of bringing DWX technology in-house for production of restorations.

IRVINE, California--Roland DGA, a provider of dental CAD/CAM technologies, has introduced a new online ROI calculator
for the DWX-4 compact dental mill.

The new calculator, located on the company's website at www.rolanddga.com/dwx4, allows dental labs to calculate monthly cost savings of bringing DWX technology in-house for production of restorations.

The DWX-4 is a production platform for labs that operates through an outsourcing model, those just getting started in digital dentistry, and established digital labs that need a backup device for urgent, time-sensitive jobs, said Brian Brooks, product manager for Roland DGA.

This new online tool canl help labs make an informed business decision on whether to bring milling processes in-house.

Measuring 13 inches x 14 inches x 16 inches high, the DWX-4 allows professionals to mill a single crown or small bridge quickly, economically, and to exacting specifications. Based on proven CNC milling technology, it supports a variety of materials. This includes 3M ESPE's Lava Ultimate Restorative, zirconia, PMMA, and wax.

Open architecture by design, the DWX-4 integrates into an existing workflow with commercially available dental CAD/CAM software and hardware. Roland EasyShape CAM software is included as well for a complete solution.

In addition to the DWX-4, Roland offers the DWX-50, a five-axis dental milling machine designed to handle greater complexity and volume production. An enhanced ROI calculator is also available on the Roland website for the DWX-50. DWX mills are offered through authorized Roland dental dealers, and priced at $17,995 for the DWX-4 and $29,995 for the DWX-50.

Roland will demonstrate both DWX mills April 4 -5, 2014, at the Lab Day East conference in New York City.
