1. System Setup
โข Place the D5 milling machine on a stable, level surface close to the CAD/CAM workstation.
โข Connect the main power supply and, depending on the milling mode, attach the coolant system for wet milling or the suction unit for dry milling.
2. Material Loading
โข Choose the correct holder for your material (block, blank, or pre-milled abutment).
โข Secure the material firmly to ensure stability during milling.
โข Double-check alignment to avoid miscuts or tool collisions.
3. Software Configuration
โข Design your restoration using compatible CAD software.
โข Export the design file to the D5 CAM software.
โข Set milling parameters according to material type and operation mode:
โข Wet or dry milling
โข Spindle speed
โข Toolpath strategy
4. Milling Process
โข Install the appropriate milling tools and verify calibration.
โข Start the milling operation via the touchscreen or control interface.
โข Monitor the milling job, watching for tool engagement, coolant flow, and material behavior.
5. Post-Milling
โข Carefully remove the finished restoration from the holder.
โข Clean the machine chamber, empty debris and collection trays, and refill coolant if wet milling was used.
โข Inspect the milled part for accuracy and surface quality.
6. Maintenance Tips
โข Regularly check spindle condition, tool wear, and coolant levels.
โข Keep the milling chamber clean to maintain precision and longevity of the machine.
โข Store tools and accessories in a safe, dry place when not in use.
