Benefits of laser-welding

Aug. 1, 1999
Laser-welding eliminates distortion, porosities, and corrosion. Round-house bridges and implant cases fit passive, which eliminates associated remakes. The weld site is as strong as the parent metal. The low, average material cost, coupled with labor savings and fast turn-around time, offers the laboratory an excellent opportunity to improve laboratory/doctor relationships. With the AlphaLaser, dental alloys can be laser-welded directly on the master model with only minutes of labor. No investme

Laser-welding eliminates distortion, porosities, and corrosion. Round-house bridges and implant cases fit passive, which eliminates associated remakes. The weld site is as strong as the parent metal. The low, average material cost, coupled with labor savings and fast turn-around time, offers the laboratory an excellent opportunity to improve laboratory/doctor relationships. With the AlphaLaser, dental alloys can be laser-welded directly on the master model with only minutes of labor. No investment materials and solders needed. Welding close to ceramic and composite becomes easy for partial-denture reconstruction, orthodontic appliances, and PFM bridge repairs. The AlphaLaser equipment is ergonomic and safe to use, with automated safety shutters, and settings for all parameters by foot and hand control. With the AlphaLaser, the laboratory produces passive fitting and biocompatible restorations as strong as the parent metal, unmatched by conventional soldering techniques.

Installation and training is completed by factory-trained technicians. The AlphaLaser is successfully in use in over 500 dental laboratories worldwide.
