The dental industry is undergoing a major transformation.
With the growing demand for custom-made devices — resin removable prosthetics, aligners, surgical guides, night guardsdental labs have no choice but to modernize.
The key to this evolution? The automation of dental 3D printing, a topic we explore in detail in our latest e-book.

Are you a dental technician, lab manager, or simply curious about new 3D printing production technologies?
This guide is for you.

By downloading our e-book, you’ll learn how to turn your lab into a true digital factory, capable of meeting today’s requirements:
speed, quality, volume, and traceability.

Why is Automation Now Essential for Dental 3D Printing?

Beyond modernization, automation optimizes every stage of the dental workflow.

While much has been said about the impact of 3D printing on the dental industry as a whole, it’s within dental laboratories that the technology is having its most transformative and immediate effect. Beyond streamlining workflows, 3D printing is expanding what’s possible—from high-volume model production to the development of fully digital processes that meet growing clinical expectations.

It minimizes downtime by ensuring continuous operation of 3D printers and post-processing stations, boosting productivity and maximizing ROI. It also guarantees consistent quality by eliminating human error and standardizing production, ensuring flawless reproducibility of parts.

Moreover, automation frees technicians from repetitive tasks so they can focus on high-value operations such as quality control and device customization.

Our e-book provides a detailed look at how to integrate automation across digital file preparation, additive manufacturing, and finishing, ensuring your lab meets the strict compliance and performance standards of the dental sector.

  • Achieve up to 2x faster production with dense nesting and reduced prep time.
  • Significantly reduce errors and material waste.
  • Keep production costs under control by lowering resin consumption and labor needs.
  • Easily scale your operations, whether you’re a small lab or large production center.
  • Simplify compliance with increasingly strict regulatory requirements.

What You’ll Learn in Our E-book

Our guide, written by Prodways Machines experts, walks you through every step of an automated dental production workflow:

1. File Preparation and Nesting: The Foundation of Efficient Production

Before printing begins, one critical step makes all the difference: optimal organization of 3D files.

With intelligent software like Oqcam, you can:

  • Automatically import and prepare CAD files.
  • Optimize part orientation and positioning to maximize printer capacity.
  • Reduce resin consumption with automated model hollowing.
  • Generate supports and labels with a single click, ensuring perfect traceability.

The result? Optimized print platforms, minimal waste, faster turnaround times, and unparalleled part consistency.

2. Automated 3D Printing: The Shift to Continuous Production

Industrial-grade printers from the DENTAL PRO range, powered by proprietary MOVINGLight® technology, already deliver exceptional accuracy.

But combined with the fully automated DENTAL PRO Automated Line, they become true autonomous production systems:

  • Automated platform loading and unloading.
  • Continuous 24/7 printing.
  • Real-time monitoring and remote control.

Automation reduces downtime and eliminates human error, boosting productivity and profitability for your lab.

3. Automated Post-Processing: The Critical UV Curing Step

A dental model or prosthesis isn’t finished when it leaves the printer. UV post-curing is essential to ensure:

  • Strength and durability of parts.
  • Biocompatibility for patient-safe devices.
  • Dimensional stability for a perfect fit.

In our e-book, we present solutions like the DYMAX UVCS 3.0, an automated UV curing system designed to rapidly process large volumes of parts while ensuring consistent quality.

Automation: More Than Just Equipment

Effective automation goes beyond hardware. It’s the entire production workflow — coordinated by powerful software — that delivers optimal results:

  • Batch tracking and traceability.
  • Smart job planning.
  • Automatic data collection for regulatory compliance.
  • Centralized equipment and lab management system connectivity.

With the complete ecosystem from Prodways Machines — hardware, software, and integrations — you’re ready to scale up to industrial production, without compromising on quality.
