CURRENT MANUFACTURING PROCESS | 5 JOINT IMPLANTS, TIBIAS, FEMURS ... Perfect highly polished surfaces, not even the smallest scratch and surface roughness of 0.01 pm with absolute process security, also for highly complex open form surfaces. That distinguishes the drag-finishing machine DF from OTEC. Depending on grinding and/or polishing granulate, maximum surface shine can be achieved even with the most diverse materials. OTEC is currently the only manufacturer in a position to achieve perfect surfaces also for ceramic implants. Surface processed on a CNC grinding machine Ra: 1.23 pm Rz: 7.9...

BONE PLATES, PRECISION IN THE SURFACE Ideal for smooth, generously rounded and homogeneous surfaces of bone plates which often require a particularly large edge rounding. OTEC has the perfect solution for both small and large bone implants. The high-performance vibrator HV 20 from OTEC (for larger work pieces) and the CF machines (for smaller work pieces up to 100 mm). For the grinding of punching and chipping traces in very short processing time. The result: High-quality, precise bone plate surfaces in every size. For large bone plates: the HV 20 Strong edge rounding and perfect surfaces. For...

BONE PLATES AND BONE SCREWS The CF series machines are particularly suited for the treatment of implants made from stainless steel or titanium alloys as well as plastics and ceramics. Work pieces can be reliably deburred without appreciably rounding the corners in the process, which is very important for bone screws. OTEC has developed a special process in order to achieve a smoothing of the surfaces with subsequent polishing in the µm range, which can all be done in one process. Ra values of 0.02 µm are possible here. The CF series is also suited for the complete rounding of bone plates. The...

DEBURRING WITHOUT SIGNIFICANT EDGE ROUNDING | 11 Deburring and creation of smooth surfaces are essential in dentistry. Therefore the CF SP and CF-T are the ideal devices when implant surfaces and teeth made from stainless steel and titanium alloys as well as ceramic must be smoothed and polished - perfectly completed to the µm range. The process developed by OTEC allows for Ra values of 0.03 µm - and all that in one single work step. IMPLANTS, TEETH Implant screws, perfectly deburred and polished to a high gloss - processed in one single work step with the OTEC machine CF SP - and the sharp edges...

ORTHODONTIC AND DENTAL TOOLS The appropriate process for every tool: Whether sharp-edged or edge-rounded, pointed or dull CF series OTEC machines produce perfect surfaces for every application area. Using appropriately selected grinding and polishing media, the CF series machines produce high gloss finishes normally achieved only through hand polishing, all in a very short time on both large and small work pieces. Ideal for sharp-edged orthodontic and dental tools with highly polished, finished surface without appreciable edge rounding. CF machines take care of deburring, grinding and polishing...

14 || THE PROCESS CUSTOM-FIT PERFECTION 2 SURFACES FOR EAR SHELLS SURFACE FIN(OTOPLASTICS) ISHING FROM FOR HEARING THE MARKET AIDS LEADER Surfaces of ear shells are initially too rough to guarantee proper fit and comfort in the human ear. OTEC machines grind and polish the plastic surfaces both gently and with guaranteed process reliability in the shortest time. This replaces the time-consuming and difficult manual grinding process. Special features Surgical implants: for industrial batch production Surgical implants: large dimensions, small batches Surgical implants: smaller dimensions/geometry...
