Tech Tip: Automatic Print Prep

Carbon’s Automatic Print Preparation removes “print preparation” from your team’s to-do list so that you can focus your valuable, limited staff on higher-value tasks. Simply drop your print-ready files in a folder, then leave them unattended. At the same time, Carbon’s automated system chooses and uploads the right files, organizes them into densely-packed builds, applies your preferred print settings, and queues builds to printers. No coding or software development is required; all functionality is accessible via an easy-to-use web-based interface.

Automating print preparation can help your lab:

  • Standardize print preparation: remove variations in quality between shifts or individual technicians.
  • Streamline asynchronous model design workflows: completed models can be prepared for printing at any time of day or night.
  • Ensure consistent printer utilization: no more letting a printer sit idle while technicians are busy with other tasks.

Applications supported:

  • Models and dies (full arches, quads, and single teeth–hollow or solid) that do not require supports
  • Denture bases + teeth, splints, and hollow full-palate models (coming soon …)

Automatic Print Prep is currently offered as a Beta product that requires access to be granted by Carbon. If you are interested in gaining access to this functionality, reach out to your Sales Director.
