vhf calibratie dchijf- Ø98 x 10 mm

The vhf calibration disc is used with various vhf dental milling machines that utilize discs, such as the E5, K5/K5+, S5, and R5 models. The appropriate calibration disc and procedure depend on the specific machine type; while designed for vhf machines, they are also suitable for many other machine brands manufactured by vhf.

VHF Calibration Disc for ensuring accurate and reliable milling results.

A precise milling machine is essential for a reliable digital production process. Over time, or following repairs, minor deviations may occur—for instance, in the axes, tool position, or mechanical positioning of the machine. A vhf calibration disc allows the milling machine’s accuracy to be checked and, where necessary, recalibrated.

The calibration disc was developed for use in the calibration procedure for vhf dental milling machines, making it a vital tool for maintaining machine accuracy.

Why calibrate the CNC milling machine?

In CAD/CAM production, restorations are manufactured with very tight tolerances. Consequently, even a minor deviation in the machine can ultimately become visible in the milled workpiece.

Regular inspection and calibration help to:

  • maintain the machine’s positioning accuracy;
  • monitor deviations in the axes and tool position;
  • ensure consistent milling results;
  • detect fit and dimensional issues at an early stage;
  • optimize machine performance.

This is particularly important when working on high-precision applications such as crowns, bridges, abutments, and implant-supported restorations.

How does the VHF calibration disc work?

The calibration disc is used as part of the calibration procedure for the vhf milling machine. The machine processes or measures the calibration material according to the prescribed procedure, after which the results are used to verify the system’s accuracy and, if necessary, make corrections.

The calibration procedure itself depends on the specific vhf machine model. Therefore, always consult the corresponding machine manual or have the calibration performed by a trained engineer.

When is calibration advisable?

Calibration may be relevant, for example:

  • after servicing or maintenance of the machine;
  • when the machine has been moved;
  • when deviations in milling results are detected;
  • in the event of issues with the fit of restorations;
  • as part of periodic machine maintenance.

With intensive use, it is advisable to check the machine’s accuracy periodically. This prevents a minor deviation from going unnoticed until after multiple workpieces have been produced.

Suitable for VHF dental milling machines

The calibration disc is used with various vhf dental milling machines. The appropriate calibration disc and procedure depend on the specific machine model. Examples of vhf machines for which calibration may be part of the service and maintenance process include the E5, K5+, S5, and R5, as well as older models and machines manufactured by vhf for other brands. The exact procedure and required accessories vary by model.
