3D in studio: less than 10 minutes for a crown?
PioCreat presented at Formnext 2025 3D solutions that drastically reduce dental production times. The PioNext Mini allows printing crowns directly in the studio in less than 10 minutes, eliminating waiting and optimizing space. The dual vat resin technology and biocompatible materials open new possibilities for dentists and laboratories.
Crown in 10 minutes? The secret of the PioNext Mini
The PioNext Mini transforms dental production with ultra-fast prints and a compact design that fits in every studio.
The PioNext Mini stands out for its suitcase-style compact design. It allows dental studios to produce crowns, bridges, inlays and veneers directly on site. This eliminates the sending times to external laboratories and drastically reduces the footprint.
The printer integrates a dual vat resin system. The ACF Fast Vat allows printing a crown in just 10 minutes. The HDF Clear Vat produces high transparency results that do not require polishing.
- Suitcase-style compact design for maximum space saving
- Print crowns in 10 minutes with ACF Fast Vat
- Clear results without polishing with HDF Clear Vat
- Upgraded LCD screen for long-term stability
The upgraded LCD screen guarantees stability and clarity over time. This makes the system reliable for laboratories and studios looking to optimize daily operational workflows.
Double basin, maximum flexibility
The double basin system speeds up material changes, allowing rapid switching between different applications without production downtime.
The double resin basin configuration represents a concrete advantage for those managing multiple types of jobs. The rapid change between different materials increases productivity without compromising quality.
The ACF Fast Vat focuses on speed. It is ideal for the serial production of crowns and bridges where time is critical. The HDF Clear Vat focuses on transparency and surface finishing.
This versatility allows operators to adapt the workflow to specific needs. A single device covers applications that would normally require multiple machines or complex configurations.
High-definition custom prostheses
Biocompatible materials and high resolution allow for the realization of custom medical prostheses with industrial precision.
PioCreat's medical solutions focus on custom orthopedic and orthotic prostheses. The MS01 SE printer is designed to produce single-piece scoliosis braces, prosthetic sockets, and plantar orthoses.
The system integrates a 400°C high-temperature nozzle. The print height reaches 650 mm, enabling the production of large-scale components. Compatibility with biocompatible materials ensures clinical safety.
Single-piece production reduces circumferential joints, improving the comfort and structural resistance of prostheses. This approach combines industrial precision with clinical reliability.
The single-piece approach eliminates multiple joints. This improves patient comfort and the structural resistance of the device. The combination of precision and advanced materials takes customization to a new level.
Conclusion
PioCreat's solutions demonstrate how 3D printing can redefine efficiency in sensitive sectors such as dental and medical. The reduction in production times, system compactness, and operational flexibility meet the concrete needs of studios and laboratories.
Dual-vat technology and biocompatible materials open up new scenarios for chairside production and prosthesis personalization. These tools transform the digital workflow into high-quality physical outputs, directly where they are needed.
