Ceramill Mikro IC with "Carving Mode"

The compact 4-axis Ceramill Mikro IC milling unit from Amann Girrbach extends the in-house fabrication of restorations to include the option of wet grinding/milling.


Titanium abutment blanks can also be processed with this unit in the same way as composites, hybrid and glass-ceramics. The monocoque design, typical for Ceramill units, gives the machine stability and torsion resistance despite its small footprint. In combination with the solid design of the axis system, quiet-running, and a powerful high-frequency spindle, the respective milling strategies can be precisely transferred to the blank using high feed rates. This is particularly effective when grinding in the "Carving Mode". This innovative grinding process reduces the processing times of single blocks up to 60% and corresponds to processing times of systems with two spindles (approximately 15 minutes per crown).
