Why EnvisionTEC?

CADSPEED were early adopters of 3D printing having employed the technology in its milling centre since 2011. In 2016 the team knew that to stay competitive they needed to upgrade the printers to provide the quality that customers now expected.

The machines provided superior print speed and flexibility. The range of dental and orthodontic materials available providing the ability to quickly move between applications and model types.
