Example: Quadrant Module

Nesta página será seguido e explicado o assistente para o escaneamento de 2 modelos de quadrantes em oclusão com 3 munhões usando o Módulo Open Technologies Quadrante.

Este módulo permite o escaneamento de modelos de quadrantes, com até 4 munhões, em um projeto definido de 2 etapas cortando pela metade o tempo de escaneamento.

Definição do projeto a partir de Exocad

  Para criar este projeto no Exocad, clique no ícone DentalDB na sua área de trabalho. O gerente do projeto será aberto.

Preencha as informações do projeto, o tipo de restauração que precisa ser projetado e os parâmetros extras. Para este tipo de projeto, certifique-se de que o Modo de Escaneamento 'esteja definido em' 'Dois modelos de gesso em oclusão' , o tipo de modelo será especificado mais tarde no software de escaneamento para ativar o assistente correto.

Para obter mais informações sobre como criar projetos no Exocad, visite a página específica no Exocad Wiki!

Aqui está a definição do projeto para o nosso projeto de demonstração:

Uma vez definido o projeto, clique em 'OPT' na seção Ações para iniciar o software de escaneamento.
A primeira coisa que o software de escaneamento mostra é o projeto criado no Exocad.

In order to activate the correct wizard, click on the Model Type icon and select the option.
Click the Accept button to save the changes and start the project.

Project definition starting from ScanWay

All projects can be defined in the scanning software as well, regardless the CAD that will be later on used to design.

Launch the scanning software double-clicking on the ScanWay icon on your desktop. The Welcome Page will open; to create the project click on the first icon.

For detailed information on how to define a project visit the specific page: Create a New Project.

Here is the definition of our demo project:

Both the project definitions described lead to the same wizard, which will be now followed step by step.

Step 1: Articulator Scanning

In this case, for articulator, is meant the quadrant tray occlusor, which can be scanned directly on the normal model holder.
The user can decide freely how to place the occlusor on the model holder, here are our suggestions.

Once the objects have been placed in the scanner (either the articulator or the models one on top of the other), the scan can be started with the Scan Button. Once the scan is finished the result will be shown.

For further information on the other available functions check the Scan Interface page.

Click to access the second step of the wizard.

Step 2: Quadrant Scan

This step develops in the usual phases.

Scan

For this step, all the elements need to be positioned as marked by the software in the Quadrant holder.
Click the Scan Button to start the scan. Once the scan is finished the result will be shown.

Click to access the edit step.

Edit

In this case, the image has been trimmed using the base cut tool and clicking on the apply button.

BE CAREFUL NOT TO TRIM TOO MUCH, AS TO DO SO THE SOFTWARE MIGHT HAVE ISSUES DURING THE AUTOMATIC ALIGNMENT

Click to access the alignment phase.

Alignment

As for all scanned items, the software tries to align all the images to their reference. In this case the reference for all the scanned items is the articulator scan.

At the end of the alignment the results are shown. To learn more on the automatic alignment and the manual procedure visit our Alignment Interface page.

Click to access the last step of the wizard.

Step 3: Mesh Generation and Export

At this point the software immediately starts mesh generation. The meshes can be edited and exported individually or as a unique image. To learn more about mesh editing visit our Mesh Tools page.

Click on the Export Button to export to CAD.

If the project has been started from Exocad, the CAD will automatically open and the design can be started immediately. Otherwise the software will ask the user how to export the file.
