Find out why Dental Four milling machines are the ideal choice for dental laboratories.

The compact, high-rigidity mechanics, together with the management of the electronics and the high-quality components, guarantee levels of precision and speed never seen before. The wide inclinations of the axes make it possible to exceptionally perform machining with significant disparallelisms and to obtain detailed buccal finishes.

Stainless steel monocoque frame for maximum rigidity

All Dental Four machines feature an integrated stainless steel working chamber built into the monocoque frame—ensuring maximum strength, structural rigidity, easy cleaning, and complete protection against dust and liquids.

Optimal chip extraction and tool lubrication

For maximum efficiency, the suction nozzle is integrated with the spindle, ensuring chip extraction occurs as close to the tool as possible.

Air and liquid nozzles are also spindle-integrated, providing consistent cooling and lubrication throughout the machining process.

A/B axis movements

The wide inclinations of the axes allow prostheses with significant disparallelisms to be performed on implant processing in both cobalt chrome and titanium and, in combination with the C-Clamp pod supports, allow vestibular processing.

Starter KIT tools for advanced machining

All Dental Four machines are already equipped with an original equipment kit that also includes cutters for advanced machining, such as inclined holes and threading.

DF PANEL: Simplicity Meets Technology

A smarter interface for faster workflows

Developed with input from dental technicians and web designers, DF Panel brings all essential features together in one intuitive interface. Accessible from any connected device via the My Dental Four portal, it lets you:

Track work progress in real time
Automate backups
Manage software updates
Request support with a click

DF Panel also streamlines advanced features exclusive to Dental Four machines, such as Stop&Go and Restore Line, making powerful tools easy to use.

Mechanical quick pod release

Flexibility. Precision. Productivity.

This system enables the removal and repositioning of the pod support with absolute accuracy — even after a paused process.

When combined with the Stop&Go feature, ongoing work can be temporarily interrupted to load a different task or material, with the ability to resume the original process at a later time without losing precision.

In metal milling, the pod and wafer can be extracted mid-process for inspection on the bench. If needed, additional refinements or corrections can be carried out before continuing.

The quick pod release also supports specific pod types tailored to different materials and workflows, such as:

Closed Pod for heavy-duty metal machining
C-Clamp for 90° milling and high-precision aesthetic work

This approach ensures greater workflow flexibility while maintaining consistent, high-quality results.

Discover the pod change

Automatic pod changer

Be more productive with an automated workflow

The system is extremely reliable and precise as it uses the same axes as the milling, controlled with absolute encoders.

The system allows the pod to be changed in less than a minute.

The system offers all the advantages of manual quick release, but, thanks to the addition of the magazine, allows the machine to work for up to 48 hours in total autonomy.

Monitor Your Milling Machine from Your Smartphone

Live Updates and Video via Telegram

With DF Panel’s integration with Telegram and an optional in-chamber camera, you can monitor your milling process anytime, anywhere. View live status updates and video footage directly through the portal or app — all from your smartphone.

Self-calibration

Precision Without Error – Fully Automated

To ensure maximum accuracy, every milling machine requires regular calibration. Dental Four offers an optional fully automatic calibration system that guarantees precision and eliminates manual errors.

An electronic probe, mounted directly on the spindle, accurately detects the pod’s position at multiple angles and automatically adjusts the axis calibration — ensuring consistent precision without manual intervention.

Seamlessly integrated into the DF Panel, the system is simple, intuitive, and user-friendly — even for non-experts.

Self-Calibration

DF500 is perfect for milling soft materials

High speed and precision milling of all soft materials, dry or lubricated.

All our milling machines can be equipped with a lubrication system, this allows you to mill any material: technopolymers, resins, zircons, fibers and disilicates.

Materials

Software CAM

All our products are compatible with the main cam software on the market.

Through a “certified” strategy package, it is possible to guarantee a minimum learning time and allow even less experienced operators immediate productivity.

Automatic pod changer

The 4-pod loader, which can be installed on the DF500 and DF600, allows you to automate the work cycle on four different pod supports, which can mount pods of different materials, thicknesses, or even premilled and disilicates. The system is extremely reliable and precise as it uses the same axes as the milling, controlled with absolute encoders. The system allows the pod to be changed in less than a minute.

Lubrication system

Optional Support Table for Maximum Efficiency

All Dental Four machines can be paired with a dedicated support table, designed to neatly house the filtration, lubrication, cooling, and aspiration systems — practical, organized, and space-saving.

Equipped table

Pod holders

With the pod release system, both in the optional manual version for DF 300/DF400, and in the standard pneumatic version on DF500/DF600, it is possible to mount the perfect pod support for any application.

C-Clamp, the open support, for the processing of soft materials which allows extensive processing of the vestibular region.
