Mectron relies on SCHNEEBERGER CNC grinding machines

Mectron is one of the leading companies in the dental and medical sector, known for inventing the first ultrasonic surgical unit dedicated to piezoelectric bone surgery. SCHNEEBERGER and Mectron collaborate closely since their first CNC grinding machine purchase in 2004. Most Mectron ultrasonic tools such as inserts for dental hygiene, restorations, maxillary sinus surgery and retrograde root canal treatment are simulated in Qg1 and ground on an ariesNGP.

Mectron operates in the medical and dental sector and is famous for inventing piezo-surgery, applicable both in dentistry and in other sectors of medicine. It is an innovative method of cutting and bone remodeling that exploits the action of micro-vibrations produced by high precision scalpels. Since we need sharpeners for our tools, we turned to SCHNEEBERGER.

Just recently we purchased a new generation machine from SCHNEEBERGER equipped with CAD/CAM grinding software Qg1. Ease in setting the parameters and cutting precision are the two main advantages derived from the collaboration with SCHNEEBERGER.

As we know, there are many similar machine tools on the market. What really makes the difference for a manufacturer like us, is being able to count on a professional relationship with the supplier, who can help us to solve all technical problems that could possibly arise. We can count on excellent support and service.

In less than a week after machine installation, we were already able to work and program the machine. This is really one of the reasons, why our collaboration with SCHNEEBERGER has been successfully going on since a long time, with great satisfaction on our part.

Being immediately operational, in a sector like ours, is an indispensable advantage, in addition to being able to count on highly performing machines.
