HeyGears Presets with 3Shape and exocad: Optimize Your Digital Dentistry Process
28/02/23 Irvine, California, USA
It’s official! HeyGears 3D printing presets can now be automatically set using 3Shape and exocad. 3Shape and exocad are two of the worlds leading providers of dental CAD/CAM software. Users can now select a corresponding printer and material for certain appliances and test the presets with one click instead of setting each parameter individually.
Match Printing Parameters with One Click, Data Driven and Accurate
HeyGears’ database of implant guide sleeve options has been added to the guide design and splint design process in 3Shape Unite. Users can now update and download relevant information for quick designs. During the design process, HeyGears presets for dental implants should be used in conjunction with the guide kit and guide sleeve.
Exocad’s model creator integration within DentalCAD 3.1 contains HeyGears default material presets, allowing users to select the presets according to the materials in one simple step.
Previously, users needed to manually input and modify preset information when using HeyGears 3D printers. Now, you can select default presets and test them with one click for an optimized workflow.
The preset settings have been tested extensively to enable more efficient 3D printing and material consumption. They also eliminate the need for rework due to incorrect settings caused by manual input. For most cases, users can complete a design without modifications.
For specific designs, follow the steps below:
3Shape Guide Design
1. HeyGears 3D printers and materials are integrated into 3Shape Unite (Version 2021).
2. If you are using the HeyGears guide kit and guide sleeve, you should download HeyGears’ guide sleeve database.
Unite → More → 3Shape Implant Studio → Implant Database → Guide sleeves → HeyGears
3. Use HeyGears implant guide sleeve database to generate the implant guide.
3Shape Splint
1. HeyGears 3D printers and materials for splints are integrated into 3Shape Unite (Version 2022).
Unite → More → Splint Studio → General
2. Presets can be directly used to generate splints.
exocad Model Creator
Model Editing→ Design without Baseplate → Settings → HeyGears Material Configuration
In Model Creator (Version 3.1), HeyGears material parameters have included dynamic gap presets for dies. Model Creator automatically generates gaps in different sizes based on the diameter for the dies to prevent inconsistent tightness and different sizes of dies.
HeyGears will continue to increase it’s cooperation with dental design software companies to promote the ease of digital transformation in the dental industry and provide a better digital experience for dental labs, clinics and patients.
