Vortex - Compact 5-axis milling machine

At the heart of your digital project

Vortex is a 5-axis milling machine specifically designed for the dental sector, built with hallmark Made in Italy quality and precision. Every component is carefully selected to ensure the greatest service life and to stand the test of time, while its assembly is carried out by following strict quality standards. What's more, Vortex is designed to be user-friendly, with an intuitive interface that makes it easy to use for dental technicians.

Top features

Vortex is Dental Machine's milling machine for soft materials developed for dental labs that want to make the most of CAD-CAM technology with a high return on their investment. It is a user-friendly desktop CNC milling machine with 5 continuous interpolated axes.

500W high-frequency "air-free" electrospindle

The 100,000 rpm 500W electrospindle means that dental technicians do not have to buy a specific compressor.

Machinable materials

It can mill all soft materials such as wax, PMMA, pre-sintered cobalt-chrome and PEEK, as well as harder materials such as glass ceramics and composites.

Axis angle up to ±30°

Thanks to the spindle angle of up to ±30°, Vortex can carry out highly complex machining with high undercuts. The open "C" disc allows for 90° milling.

24 tools

24 tools with automatic changeover featuring high-precision sensor measurement and verification technology.

Movement on 5 axes

Linear movement on 3 Cartesian axes with recirculating ground ballscrews driven by brushless motors with absolute encoders for continuous position control, while the 2 rotary axes use the same motors with low-backlash planetary gearboxes.

Wet milling

The machining of hard materials such as composites and glass ceramics requires lubrication; the machine has two filters and a collection tank with a closed circuit pump.

Dry milling

The machine has airtight protective bellows on all axes. The connection to the central vacuum system prevents dust from escaping into the room.
