Please contact Carestream or exocad for details. The respective scanning software, CS IO 3D Acquisition Interface (Version 3.1), is provided by Carestream, and should be installed separately (setupCSIO3DAcqPlus).Īlternatively, the CS3600/CS3700 can be integrated with ChairsideCAD using the CS Imaging Platform as database.The purchase price of the module covers our fees for the API to start the scanning process from our software. Please contact your reseller to purchase the module. To enable direct scanning with CS3600/CS3700 from ChairsideDB, an add-on module for the exocad ChairsideCAD is required.

SCANNERZ WIKI SOFTWARE
Many intraoral scanners already come with their own software for managing patients and cases, or they are integrated with the manufacturer's existing Imaging Platform or Practice Management System.


Familiar user experience for those who are used to exocad software.The advantages of this type of setup are: This type of integration is also available for a Chairside environment, typically with our ChairsideDB database software, targeted at clinicians. From there, different CAD/CAM related tasks, such as scanning, designing, production are started. Scanner manufacturers can chose to support one or both types of integration.įor lab scanners, the entry point to the CAD/CAM platform is typically our DentalDB software, which manages cases and patients. Two different ways to integrate exocad software with intraoral scanners are available. For a demonstration of such a setup, please see this video. Scanned cases are automatically added to exocad's case list, and a pop-up notification informs the user of newly arrived cases. To support this mode of operation, exocad software can run on the CAD/CAM station. This maximizes throughput of the scanner, which can be moved from chair to chair, while another person is working on the CAD/CAM station. However, in some clinics (especially larger ones with multiple chairs), the intraoral scanner is used for scanning only, and design and production is handled by a separate computer (typically located next to the milling machine). For a variety of scanners, this mode of operation is supported - users can go directly from scanning to CAD/CAM, without having to switch to a different machine. Some clinicians prefer to do the scanning and the design on the same computer. Requirements and preferences regarding the CAD/CAM setup vary from clinic to clinic. ĭifferent setups are supported (depending on the intraoral scanner)
SCANNERZ WIKI HOW TO
It does not cover clinic-to-lab collaboration, or how to import data from intraoral scanners in the lab. This page documents integration with intraoral scanners, which are used at the same site as the CAD/CAM software (e.g. Integrating Intraoral Scanners with exocad software - General Aspects
