Roland DGA’s DGSHAPE DWX-43W chairside milling solution brings quality restorations in-house
Offering quick, convenient restorations can significantly boost a dental practice’s success. One way to enhance productivity is by producing esthetic crowns, bridges, onlays, and veneers in-house. Roland DGA has upgraded its chairside milling solution to help dental practices expand their restorative capabilities and deliver lab-quality results. With the DWX-43W’s powerful new features, a higher ROI could be right at your fingertips.
Labor-saving
One of the most appealing aspects of this chairside mill is its filter-free design, which saves both time and money. By eliminating coolant tank filters, operating costs are reduced by up to 20%. In addition, the automated coolant jet optimization and draining cycle cuts routine maintenance by 50%. Filtration happens automatically when the machine is powered on—even around the clock.
Time-saving
The DWX-43W also helps shave time off each job. The included DGSHAPE CAM software reduces milling times by up to 20%, while boosting efficiency and predictability. Paired with the new DGSHAPE ZTR-150D tooling, milling custom titanium abutments is now 20% faster compared to the previous ZTB-150D tool.
Workflows should adapt to each dentist’s unique needs and preferences. That’s why the DWX-43W offers a “quick mill” feature, allowing users to select frequently used materials and begin milling promptly in either standard or fast strategy modes. Job setup and milling times are further reduced by the ability to mill up to six units simultaneously using the included 6-pin adapter accessory.
No one wants to work around the clock—but this chairside mill doesn’t mind. It keeps going after hours, and with DGSHAPE’s proprietary VPanel and DGSHAPE Cloud software, dentists can remotely monitor their devices in real time.
Money-saving
Open architecture is always a win. The DWX-43W’s open-architecture ecosystem allows users to select their preferred scanner, CAD software, and restorative materials.
The upgrades don’t stop at software. For enhanced ROI, the DWX-43W comes bundled with 15 premium DGSHAPE wet-milling tools and a 6-pin material adapter (#ZV-42W)—a package valued at approximately $1,600, included at no additional cost. These accessories expand the unit’s capabilities and are specifically designed for milling harder materials.
In the past, many chairside milling solutions were simply out of reach for smaller practices. The DWX-43W changes that, offering an impressive suite of features at a practical, affordable price. A cost-effective and efficient chairside mill frees up more time for dentists and assistants to focus on patient care—and less time on machine setup and upkeep. This is far from a run-of-the-mill solution. With same-day restorations and lower operating costs, the DWX-43W puts superior results right at your side.
