Template
|
The processing template specifies how the part is to be processed. It is important that the selected part type matches the part to be manufactured.
|
Boundary
|
For producing the dental restoration, the material must be removed in a sufficiently large area, the boundary (milling area), around the part so that the tool can machine all areas of the part.
|
CAD
|
Computer-aided design: 3D construction of solid bodies with the aid of a computer
|
CAM
|
Computer-aided manufacturing: Programming of machine tools (milling machines) with the help of a computer
|
Insertion direction
|
Direction from which the tool is machined within the cavity. Must be set for undercut-free machining.
|
hdpart
|
hyperDENT-internal format for part properties. The corresponding part STL must be in the same folder.
|
hdpartz
|
hyperDENT-internal format for part properties including the associated STL file.
|
hdproj
|
hyperDENT project file format.
|
hdprojz
|
hyperDENT project file format including the corresponding STL file.
|
hdcp
|
This file stores the user-modified part properties.
|
Connector
|
Holding pin or connecting element between the blank and part, so that this can be machined
|
Metadata
|
CAD interface data containing information on the respective part such as margin lines, type of indication, or the material to be used
|
Multi-layer
|
Multi-layer blanks
|
Part
|
Dental restoration
|
Part manager
|
Interface for managing the dental restorations to be manufactured
|
Part type
|
Type of dental restoration to be machined. E.g., crown or inlay/onlay
|
PP/Postprocessor
|
A computer program that converts the results of another program into a new format. The hyperVIEW postprocessor converts the machine-independent program from hyperDENT, which describes the manufacturing steps of the part, into a machine-dependent format that can then be transferred to the relevant machine for processing. For different machines, special postprocessors or settings are required that adapt the data to the machine-specific conditions.
|
Margin lines
|
Lines that separate and limit the different machining operations. Different types for different part types. E.g., for inlay/onlay, coping...
|
Project
|
One project corresponds to one blank. Saved blanks can be reopened as a project or blank.
|
Blank type
|
The blank type is composed of blank geometry and material and corresponds to a physical blank, e.g., e.max C14 block.
|
Fixture
|
Holding device in the machine for clamping blanks
|
STL
|
File format of the output data from the scanner as a 3D model
|
Toolpath
|
Toolpath during machining
