    Blender for Dental · DACOS Omni module

    DACOS Omni for Blender for Dental

    The DACOS Omni module makes your upper and lower models DACOS ready in four guided sequences: import, offset, attachments, finish. All eight attachment positions load, and you keep, remove or move the ones your case needs. It is the flexible path with implant analogs, and the path for every other CAD.

    The module is not part of the DACOS kit. It runs on the Models module of Blender for Dental: a lab not yet on Blender for Dental buys both.

    What you install

    One module, on the Models module.

    • Blender for Dental

      DACOS Omni module

      Bought from Blender for Dental. The tutorials are also in your Blender for Dental account, under My modules.

    • Required

      Models module

      The DACOS module runs on it. Without the Models module the DACOS module cannot be used.

    • Offset

      The rule

      The offset you set in the module is the offset of your calibrator. The Light or Ultra set is the tier of your plates.

    Your DACOS kit gives you the calibrator files and the lessons in the hub. The module comes from Blender for Dental.

    Before you start

    Calibration first, CAD after.

    Print the fitting test of the TrueZero™ calibrator with the printer, resin and post-curing you use for your models. Keep the offset that seats fully, stays stable and does not rotate on the Omni plate. That offset is the one you download and the one you select in your CAD.

    How the TrueZero™ calibrator works

    Get the module

    Two modules, one account.

    1. Buy the DACOS Omni module.

      From the Blender for Dental shop, with the Models module if you do not have it yet.

    2. Open it from My modules.

      The module and its tutorials appear in your Blender for Dental account.

    Hub lesson: The DACOS module in Blender for Dental, 6 steps

    Design

    Four sequences, one colour at the end.

    1. Import.

      Upper and lower in occlusion, moved together to the centre onto the occlusal reference plane. Import the Light or the Ultra set, the tier of your plates.

      Hub lesson The DACOS module in Blender for Dental, 6 steps

      Blender for Dental with the DACOS Omni module panel: the assembly imported, upper and lower models in occlusion between the attachment rows.

    2. Offset.

      Set the offset of your calibrator: Tight, Standard or Loose.

      Hub lesson The DACOS module in Blender for Dental, 6 steps

      Offset sequence: the calibrator offset selected in the module panel, the attachment caps of the upper and lower rows change colour.

    3. Attachments.

      All eight positions load. Delete with X, hide with H. Extrude, enlarge and space them toward the model. Keep enough for a stable, balanced seat.

      Attachments sequence: the plate seen from below with the attachments kept for the case on the honeycomb base.

    4. Finish.

      Select the attachments, then the model, then Selection and Finish, upper and lower. When the model shows one single colour, it is done. Optional: open windows to check that the magnet goes fully down.

      Finish sequence: the finished model in one single colour, the attachment housings fused into the base.

    5. Export STL and print.

      Flat on the platform, supports under the base, none on the seating step.

    Another CAD

    Your CAD is not listed? This is your path.

    A CAD other than exocad, 3Shape and Blender for Dental has no DACOS library of its own. Export the models from it as STL, in occlusion, import them in Blender for Dental and let the DACOS Omni module place the attachments. exocad and 3Shape users bring here the cases their fixed libraries do not handle well, such as very tall models.

    Free to change, never change.

    Free to change

    • Which of the eight attachments you keep
    • Extrusion toward the model
    • Size and spacing of the attachments

    Never change

    • The seating interface of the attachment
    • The vertical position against the occlusal plane
    • The occlusion after the import

    DockingMatrix™ Configuration

    Choose the layout.

    Here you choose the attachments yourself. A good starting point: the nine combinations of the exocad and 3Shape libraries, in the DockingMatrix™ explorer of the software page.

    In Blender for Dental all eight positions load and you keep the ones you need.

    Print and seat

    Magnets last, seating step first.

    Print flat on the platform, supports under the base, none on the seating step, with the printer, resin and post-curing of your calibrator. After post-curing the magnets go in with the Omni GlueJet™ or the Omni GlueJet™ Spider Set, which hold them at the right polarity. The magnet sits at the bottom of its housing and never touches the magnet of the plate: the seating step defines the position.

    Mistakes to avoid

    What breaks the transfer in Blender for Dental.

    • An offset in the module different from your calibrator.
    • The Light set on Ultra plates, or the reverse.
    • Attachments moved vertically against the occlusal plane.
    • A changed seating interface.
    • Upper and lower moved apart after the import.
    • Too few attachments for a stable, balanced seat.

    Questions

    Is the module part of the DACOS kit?

    No. The DACOS Omni module is sold by Blender for Dental. Your kit gives you the plates, the calibrator files and the lessons in the hub.

    Do I need the Models module?

    Yes. The DACOS module runs on the Models module of Blender for Dental. A lab not yet on Blender for Dental buys both.

    I design in another CAD. Can I use DACOS Omni?

    Yes, through Blender for Dental. Export the models as STL in occlusion, import them in Blender for Dental and finish them with the DACOS Omni module.

    Why choose Blender for Dental with implant analogs?

    All eight positions load and you keep, remove, extrude, enlarge or space the attachments, so the sockets go where the analogs leave room.

    How do I know the model is finished?

    After Selection and Finish, upper and lower, the model shows one single colour. Then you export the STL.

    What does the module cost?

    Blender for Dental sets the price of its modules. Check their shop, or ask us and a person answers you.
