At Etkon, a highly specialized dental laboratory, manually monitoring and topping up coolant was a time-consuming process. Every day, they needed almost 60 minutes for this task – valuable time that was missing at the CNC machines. With the introduction of Liquidtool, this hour can now be used more efficiently<\/strong>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Etkon<\/a> is known for the production of tailor-made prosthetic solutions for dentistry, be it crowns, splints or full dentures<\/a>. These customized products require a high level of operator presence<\/strong> at the machines. Measuring the coolant concentration and checking the filling level on a daily basis took up a lot of time that could be put to better use.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

“For us, the installation of Liquidtool AutoPilot was a relief<\/strong>,” says Izak Domgjoni, team leader of the CAM department. Before the introduction, managing coolant was often problematic. Today, everything runs smoothly<\/strong>. The ability to enter jobs shortly before leaving work without having to worry about the cooling lubricant level is particularly practical.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Etkon has consistently pushed ahead with digitalization – around 80% of orders are already processed digitally. The next logical step was the digitalization of coolant management<\/strong>. With the Liquidtool Manager, Izak Domgjoni can now quickly and easily make changes<\/strong> to the parameters, which quickly become visible in the coolant tanks.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

In addition to the considerable time savings, Domgjoni also reports an extended service life for the coolant and the milling cutters<\/strong>.<\/p>

Previously, new concentrate had to be ordered every six months, but the current drums have been in use for over seven months and the fill level is still sufficient.<\/p>

Some milling cutters have also achieved a constant service life of 140 minutes, which makes costing and forward planning easier<\/strong>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

When asked who Domgjoni recommends the Liquidtool AutoPilot to, he replies: \u201cAnyone who does liquid processing!\u201d He sees the benefits for both large-scale producers and small, specialized companies<\/strong>. Despite initial difficulties in the first two weeks, the system quickly stabilized and they have been extremely satisfied ever since.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The use of Liquidtool AutoPilot at Etkon<\/a> impressively demonstrates how digitalization and modern technology can make work processes more efficient and productive<\/strong>.<\/p>

By automating time-consuming tasks, extending the service life of materials and improving product quality, Etkon has not only increased its production capacity<\/strong>, but also improved employee satisfaction<\/strong>.<\/p>

This successful example underlines how crucial digital solutions are for the future of dental technology and other specialized industries.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
