LAB DAY Chicago 2024 witnessed a new collaboration announcement between Chamlion, a global manufacturer of integrated dental 3D printing solutions, and 3DRPD, a manufacturer of 3D printed removable partial dentures (RPDs).
The two companies will collaborate to establish a production centre in Las Vegas, US, in 2024. This facility will be dedicated to the local manufacturing of dental products, featuring 3D printed titanium partial frameworks and hybrid 3D printed all-on-x bridges.
The unveiling occurred at LAB DAY Chicago 2024, marking the debut of Chamlion and 3DRPD as collaborative partners in the US and Canada. Their collaboration aims to support dental lab by leveraging the combined expertise and resources of Chamlion and 3DRPD. The strong synergy between both entities is geared towards delivering customer-oriented dental solutions rooted in scientific evidence and extensive experience.
Headquartered in Montreal, Canada, 3DRPD provides 3D laser-printed RFDs, orthodontics appliances, surgical guides, and other products in Cobalt-chrome (CoCr) by using selective laser melting (SLM) technology, with operations spanning the US and Canada.
Chamlion is a Chinese manufacturer founded in 2017 based in Nanjing, Jiangsu, which focuses on the complete digital dental process and is said to have introduced the Hardware-as-a-Service (HaaS) model in dental 3D printing. Operating in 27 countries worldwide, Chamlion offers solutions including equipment, materials, software, process parameters, global support, and a flexible range of services. Its 300 cloud factories produce 100,000 crowns and 10,000 frameworks daily, serving 1,500 dental prosthetic factories.
The establishment of the new production centre in Las Vegas is anticipated to significantly reduce the turnaround time for dental applications while enriching the diversity of available products.
