Planmeca USA today announced the launch of its newest mill, the Planmeca PlanMill® 30 S, for chairside milling. The PlanMill 30 S debuts at the California Dental Association tradeshow in Anaheim, Calif., from May 17 –19, 2018, in booths 1376 and 1476.

The new Planmeca PlanMill 30 S has been designed for optimal precision by combining high-performance servo motor technology and durable milling components. Capable of reaching maximum speeds of 100,000 rpms, a 4-axis high-speed spindle is said to be ideal for single visit restorations and everyday milling of inlays, onlays, crowns or bridges. Direct drive linear force motors used in the manufacturing of aerospace components are unique to Planmeca milling units, resulting in accurate and a robust platform capable of milling a broad range of materials to provide the best treatment option for the patient. 

An intuitive user interface coupled with System Maintenance, Alerts, Reports and Tool (SMART) software is designed to streamline the user experience with updates on status to notify you when the mill needs attention. System automation is engineered to create a more efficient milling process by detecting worn or broken burs and automatically replacing them for a refined restorative finish. As with all Planmeca products, the Planmeca PlanMill 30 S is designed on an open platform for seamless integration with most dental equipment. 

“The launch of the Planmeca PlanMill 30 S is an ideal milling option for customers who are considering CAD/CAM technology but have been hesitant to invest,” says Brett Hines, president of Planmeca USA. “When combined with the Emerald Scanner, Planmeca 3D imaging and Romexis software, the 30 S creates an incredible system that brings the digital workflow to life in one seamless, easy process.”
