Ivoclar, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of integrated dental solutions, has introduced two new 5-axis milling machines: the PrograMill® 7 and PrograMill® 7 Pure. Developed in response to the professional ambitions, feedback and day-to-day needs of dental laboratories, the new PrograMill 7 series brings together a range of smart features designed to simplify workflows, reduce manual intervention and improve overall productivity.
Built for reliability and efficiency, these systems support a more streamlined approach to production – allowing laboratories to focus less on machine management and more on delivering high-quality restorations.
Intelligent automation for enhanced productivity
Efficiency, precision and reliability remain critical in modern dental laboratories. The PrograMill 7 and PrograMill 7 Pure combine advanced system performance with increased automation to support smarter process planning and consistent outcomes.
The accompanying PrograMill CAM software plays an important role, delivering fast calculation times and optimised milling paths. This enables accurate, repeatable results across a wide range of materials, minimising the need for rework. The result is a workflow that feels more predictable, efficient and reliable – even when case complexity increases.
More power for processing challenging materials
A key innovation in the new PrograMill 7 is its high-performance 1.5 kW spindle, engineered to process demanding materials such as IPS e.max® CAD and titanium alloys with speed and precision.
For laboratories working with larger cases or complex geometries, this additional power offers a tangible advantage. The enhanced spindle performance makes a noticeable difference in daily production, particularly when handling challenging indications. Combined with a generous 12-inch display and an intuitive user interface, the system is designed for ease of use in busy laboratory environments, helping technicians work more efficiently with fewer interruptions.
Flexible changeover between wet and dry operation
Another standout feature is the automatic changeover between wet and dry processing modes – achieved without manual cleaning. This capability saves valuable time and simplifies daily workflows.
Together with automated material and tool changes, these features allow for reliable, unattended operation, including overnight production – an important advantage for laboratories aiming to maximise output without increasing workload.
Compact and powerful – PrograMill 7 Pure, designed for in-house laboratories
For laboratories and clinical settings where space is limited, the PrograMill 7 Pure offers a compact yet powerful solution. Designed to produce patient-specific restorations, it combines flexibility with fast responsiveness to meet the demands of daily lab work.
By supporting shorter turnaround times and consistent results, the PrograMill 7 Pure enables more efficient workflows.
Overall, the PrograMill 7 series reflects a clear focus on simplifying laboratory processes while maintaining high standards of precision and performance. By combining automation, power and intelligent design, Ivoclar supports you in meeting the demands of modern restorative dentistry.
