As Schollmeier Dental delved further into 3D printing technology, the challenge of efficient post-processing became apparent. Schollmeier previously relied on a semi-automated process, operated with IPA, in which a small conventional washing station was combined with a manual washing process. This post-processing method presented the dental laboratory with a variety of challenges, such as high IPA consumption and health risks, inconsistent results as well as odor and environmental impact.
