DF500

The solution for 24/7 milling of soft materials

High milling speed and rugged construction make the DF500 the ideal machine for the 24/7 high production volumes typical of the lab. Its wet-milling capability lets it process all non-metallic materials. It comes standard with the pneumatic disc release system and can be fitted with a four-position loader for an autonomy of up to 48 hours.

Why choose DF500

24/7 production

High speed and rugged construction for the lab's continuous production.

Wet milling

Processes all non-metallic materials, from technopolymers to disilicates.

Pneumatic release as standard

Pause, change holder and job, and resume without losing the work.

Technology

Engineered with the best technology

Technology is in Dental Four's DNA: we look to innovation as a key factor in helping labs grow, increasing productivity and cutting costs.

Advanced technology

Advanced technology

Latest-generation components ensuring maximum precision and long-term durability.

DF PANEL interface

DF PANEL interface

An intuitive interface for immediate use: it shortens the learning curve and increases productivity.

Predictive maintenance

Predictive maintenance

A proprietary AI algorithm performs continuous predictive maintenance, minimizing machine downtime.

Energy efficiency

Energy efficiency

Designed to energy-saving criteria (ISO 14955): lower consumption and reduced operating costs.

Superior solutions

Built for rigidity and precision

The compact, high-rigidity mechanics, advanced electronics management and high-quality components guarantee levels of precision and speed at the top of the category.

Monocoque stainless-steel frame

Monocoque stainless-steel frame

The stainless-steel work chamber is integrated into the frame: maximum robustness and rigidity, easy cleaning and dust/liquid tightness.

Extraction and lubrication

Extraction and lubrication

The extraction nozzle is fixed to the spindle to work close to the tool; adjustable air nozzles ensure consistently optimal cooling and spraying.

A/B axis movements

A/B axis movements

The wide axis tilt angles allow restorations with significant divergences on titanium and chrome-cobalt and, with the C-Clamp, buccal-region machining.

Tool starter kit

Tool starter kit

Every machine includes an initial equipment kit with milling cutters for advanced machining, such as angled holes and threading.

  • Bite guards
  • Surgical guides
Automation and workflow

More productivity, less supervision

Systems designed to let the machine work autonomously, reducing downtime and operator intervention.

Pneumatic disc release

The system removes the disc holder being machined and repositions it in exactly the same spot. Combined with the Stop&Go system, it lets you pause a job, load another even on different materials, and resume it later.

Automatic disc change

The 4-disc loader automates the work cycle across four different holders — different materials and thicknesses, premilled and disilicates. It uses the same milling axes for maximum precision, with up to 48 hours of unattended autonomy.

Lubrication system

Optimal chip extraction and tool lubrication

To ensure the best chip extraction, the extraction nozzle is fixed to the spindle, so it works in the area closest to the tool. The air-blast nozzles for cooling and liquid spraying are also fixed to the spindle, always guaranteeing correct lubrication.

Lubrication system · Available as an option

The lubrication kit for wet milling is available as an option.
