overview dreve fotodent® ibt for carbon printers is now available to produce indirect bonding trays the material is a clear, biocompatible resin and is ideal for fast production this guide will cover digital pre processing of your ibt devices to properly prepare them for printing with fotodent® ibt for carbon printers this resin is not currently compatible with the ao polishing cassette docid\

use it in the lab as a quick reference images of dental post processing grids english german/deutsch spanish/español design recommendations flat occlusal plane carbon strongly recommends creating devices with flat occlusal planes this maximizes yield while minimizing printing and post processing times \<font color="#6752ff">flat and featureless occlusal plane\</font> creates a strong tray minimizes part failure due to adhesion issues \<font color="#30c49a">minimum wall thickness of 1 mm\</font> for optimal print outcomes prevents breaking \<font color="#05a9f4">minimize part height\</font> conserves resin minimizes print time parts should be solid avoids potential venting issues during printing that can lead to failure conformal occlusal plane if it is not possible to design a device with a flat occlusal plane, then conformal occlusal planes may be used be aware that conformal occlusal plane devices have the following effects part must be printed at angle relative to platform support structures are required 2 3x increase in print time relative to flat occlusal plane post processing time increases due to support removal \<font color="#30c49a">minimum wall thickness of 1 mm\</font> for optimal print outcomes prevents breaking general orientation & support information hide the platform use toggle platform (or press b ) to hide the platform before orienting parts this will make it easier to see overhangs and place supports use fence tools to create supports fence tool fence supports docid\ vubpoaitblm11am9 qj1p are manually placed by the user and are best suited on linear overhangs or smaller areas fences provide stability while leaving smaller nubs than the default bars option review supports docid\ vubpoaitblm11am9 qj1p in printer ui docid\ oid4znztzyelttpvj984a course for more information orient & support flat occlusal planes proper orientation of indirect bonding trays is critical maximizes yield by minimizing print defects eliminates the need for supports and the accompanying labor and resin costs achieves the required accuracy and surface quality all indirect bonding trays should be oriented to be flat against the build platform orienting use snap to platform to ensure the flat base is aligned with the platform click on \<font color="#30c49a">orient\</font> in the main bar in the printer software select the part to be oriented under snap to platform click the \<font color="#05a9f4">select surface button\</font>\<font color="#ff9900">click anywhere on the flat base of the tray part\</font> the printer software will \<font color="#ff3399">automatically rotate the part base to be parallel with the platform\</font> use snap to platform on all parts to ensure the part base is flat against the platform even a small anlgle between the part and the platform may result in a failed print z rotation of tray parts as long as the base of the part is snapped to the platform, you have freedom to rotate the part in the z axis to suit your needs supporting indirect bonding tray parts with a flat occlusal plane do not require supports because they print directly on the platform properly oriented and supported ibt part all indirect bonding trays should be oriented to be flat against the build platform any orientation is acceptable orient & support conformal occlusal planes orienting ibts with conformal occlusal planes should be oriented 45 degree angle with anterior teeth furthest from the platform intaglio surface facing the platform perform an initial orientation of both bases so that they are roughly parallel with the platform click on \<font color="#ff3399">orient\</font> in the main bar in the printer software orient each base so that the intaglio surface is facing the platform adjust the trays so that they are \<font color="#ff9900">mostly parallel with the platform\</font> we recommend typing values into the xyz axis fields changing orientation with the mouse or snap to platform function is more challenging position the camera so you are looking straight down on the platform push the \<font color="#05a9f4">reset camera icon\</font> in the lower left corner of the screen to return to the default view push \<font color="#6752ff">▲ to look straight down\</font> at platform make sure that the posterior region of the tray is facing the lower portion of the screen now perform the final orientation because indirect bonding trays with conformal occlusal planes are organic surfaces with no well defined flat areas, carbon does not recommend using snap to platform it is much easier to enter values directly into the orient fields click on the part to select it enter a value of \<font color="#30c49a">45 degrees\</font> into the x axis field the \<font color="#ff9900">posterior\</font> of the part should be touching the platform z rotation of tray parts you have freedom to rotate the part in the z axis to suit your needs supporting carbon recommends using fences to support ibt devies they are easy to remove and do not increase the footprint of the part, enabling more parts to be fit onto the build platform click \<font color="#30c49a">support\</font> in the main bar in the printer software under position, select \<font color="#05a9f4">above platform\</font> to create room between the platform and the part skip \<font color="#ff9900">auto support method\</font> as this mode is not recommended click \<font color="#ff3399">manually add\</font> to enter the support editing interface add fences you will now see the support editing view support the entire perimeter of the intaglio walls click \<font color="#30c49a">toggle platform button\</font> in the lower tool bar to hide the platform this will enable better visibility during fence creation click the \<font color="#05a9f4">fence icon\</font> in the top menu bar click a \<font color="#ff9900">series of points\</font> on the base to define the fence use \<font color="#ff3399">overhang detection\</font> to find areas that need support carbon recommends making a series of small fences rather than making a single continuous fence to give greater flexibility to reposition points click esc key and then hold down e key to reposition points click \<font color="#6752ff">generate\</font> to create the fence geometry this may take a few minutes see

orientation with anterior teeth facing away from platform intaglio surface facing platform any z axis rotation is acceptable nesting select the \<font color="#6752ff">layout tab\</font> (shift + l) in the top menu bar under auto layout, select \<font color="#32c49a">gen2 \</font> gen2 usually gives the most effecient packing for dental devices enter at least \<font color="#05a9f4">1 mm\</font> in \<font color="#05a9f4">padding \</font> models require a minimum of 1 mm of space between them leave optimize starting rotation unchecked this leaves your parts in their previous orientations leave allowed rotations at the default setting this gives the software maximum flexibility to fit the most possible parts on the build platform press the \<font color="#ff9900">auto layout\</font> button to arrange your parts screen shot showing button locations if necessary, nesting can be changed manually click and drag parts to adjust their position modify z rotation by using the spin tool or manual rotations under the orient tab (shift + o) use the part list tab as needed to more easily select models and focus on them print preparation print controls click \<font color="#30c49a">print controls\</font> or \<font color="#30c49a">shift + p\</font> in the top menu bar slicing slice thickness should be standard (100 µ) reducing the slice thickness by choosing the fine (50 µ) or super fine (25 µ) settings will increase print time and may reduce part quality and accuracy project analysis select the \<font color="#30c49a">project analysis\</font> tab click start analysis and wait for
