IPS e.max® ZirCAD
IPS e.max ZirCAD provides a versatile range of zirconium oxide materials for labside CAD/CAM applications. It is used for the fabrication of frameworks and full-contour crowns and bridges. High strength, thin wall thickness and high esthetics are among its hallmarks. IPS e.max ZirCAD Prime is redefining all-ceramics. This revolutionary material is characterized by exceptional quality and esthetics. The product is suitable for any indication – from single crowns to multiple-unit bridges and accommodates all processing techniques. After dry milling in a PrograMill CAD/CAM machine, the non-shaded restorations can be optionally infiltrated with colouring liquids. IPS e.max ZirCAD is sintered in a e.g. Programat S2 sinter furnace and finished with IPS Ivocolor and/or IPS e.max Ceram for final characterization.
Gradient Technology
The new unique Gradient Technology (GT) is at the core of IPS e.max® ZirCAD® Prime. This technology involves three innovative processing steps which allow the raw materials (Prime) / 4Y-TZP and 5Y-TZP (Prime Esthetic) to be combined in order to produce the exceptional properties of this revolutionary material.
