You have to be fair…
January 8, 2010
Yesterday, I described a few mishaps with our Origin Pro Duo 5000 milling machine. It turns out I may have been at fault. The problem with the titanium bridge may have been a result on the pattern being too large for the puck from which I attempted to mill it. To be honest, I did not notice this when I was positioning the pattern in the puck using the CAM software, but stranger things have happened.
This morning I scanned, designed, milled and shaded 4 zirconia copings. They are in the sintering furnace, and I will check them tomorrow and give my opinion as to fit and appearance.

FYI – It wasn’t me, after all. There was a bug in the titanium tooling strategy. B&D sent an engineer out to fix it on Monday – he got the job done, and I have to commend them on some pretty impressive customer service. Flying from Utah to Virginia ain’t cheap…
