SIMPLEX

3D filament printer

SIMPLEX is the easy way to a printed orthodontic model. The dental-specific SIMPLEX 3D filament printer system is a complete solution that comprises everything you need: a modern printer, smart modeling software, dental-specific slicer software and various special filaments. Low investment costs as well as low printing and material costs ensure high efficiency. This allows you to print orthodontic models easily, safely, and in a way that is healthy and environmentally friendly. This space-saving system can be easily integrated into the daily routine of an orthodontic office and is ideal for pushing forward the digitalization of orthodontics.

Advantages

  • Easy access to the digital production of orthodontic models, even without prior digital knowledge.
  • Smooth process flow from intraoral scan to orthodontic model without post-processing (no need for post-processing with chemicals or in the light curing unit).
  • Intuitive operation thanks to pre-installed parameters and dental-specific software.

Details

  • No harmful vapors during printing process.
  • Sustainable, environmentally friendly 3D printing.
  • Pleasant working environment with a low level of noise (≤ 49 dB).
  • Safety thanks to a closed build chamber, lockable door, and removable cover.
  • Dental-specific CE-compliant 3D filament printer system consisting of SIMPLEX (filament printer), SIMPLEX sliceware (slicer software) and SIMPLEX filaments (material).
  • Compact device size for flexible and individual set-up options, even where space is limited.
  • Quick and reliable, qualified service and support from worldwide locations.

Digitization can be so easy!

SIMPLEX Unpacking and setting up

Customer reviews

“We opted for Renfert's Simplex filament printer for several reasons. Promoting digitization is important to us. Accuracy and precision are essential for orthodontic models, and the SIMPLEX 3D filament printer is ideal for this. Operation is simple and intuitive and therefore possible for every employee. In addition, it does not produce any toxic fumes or odors.”

"We are very satisfied with our printer. It fully satisfies our demands. After the set-up, filament printers are easy and safe to use. All materials can be handled safely with no need for protection and there is no post-processing required for most prints. This means that the models can be used immediately. Our dental technician is also very satisfied with the models and their processing. There is also no hazardous waste, which is very important to us. I would definitely purchase the printer again."

"We chose 3D filament printing, specifically the SIMPLEX 3D filament printing system, for a number of reasons. First and foremost, the process flow convinced me - we can avoid all the post-processing. And: whenever possible, I operate in an ecologically sustainable manner in my everyday work. For filament printing, bio-filaments can be used; thus, renewable resources are used."

"For me, the main argument for buying a filament printer was that no post-processing of the printed objects is necessary;. In addition, the work is more ecological; on the one hand because of the filaments themselves. On the other hand, fewer chemical substances are needed and there is no hazardous waste. Another important factor in the decision is health protection for us as a team, because the filaments do not emit any toxic fumes during the printing process."

“The software is very intuitive and with its preset programs it is a great support in positioning the virtual model and setting the printing parameters. The printed model is dimensionally precise and stable during the processing of aligners or thermoformed plates, but above all it has never fractured. Now when I receive a digital impression, I am much more relaxed because I know that I will produce accurate and reliable work. The dentists I work with have appreciated the result confirming that the plates are very stable and retentive.

Therefore I can say that Simplex really really stands for "Simplicity" !“

‘‘The convenient "plug and print" absolutely convinced me. Renfert has really put its “making work easy” performance promise into this device. In a nutshell, that means: no major effort, no high investments, no environmental impact, and an automated, controllable, and valid process without time-consuming trial and error. I select the program, push the button, and the system does what it is supposed to – fantastic!‘‘

„To ensure consistent product quality, it is important to obtain reproducible and reliable results when using a 3D printer.“

‘‘The SIMPLEX 3D filament printer stands out thanks to its simplicity and intuitive operation. Theoretically, anyone in the team can operate the printer. And there are no chemicals and no post-processing (which is unavoidable with resin printing). This means no isopropanol and no light curing. This allows us to meet our objectives not only regarding environmental and climate protection but also regarding health protection within our office team.‘‘

"Digitization is not the future, but the present. Dental offices should also invest in digital technologies. Intraoral scanners, CAD/CAM milling, 3D printing - many applications are implemented digitally. Various technologies are used for 3D printing, e.g. FDM or SLA. For model fabrication, we mainly use the SIMPLEX 3D printing system. Most popular features are speed and consistent product quality."

"Digital processes support cost-effectiveness in everyday orthodontic work. One example is model fabrication using 3D printing. Since the SIMPLEX 3D printer is easy to operate and does not require any post-processing, it is a real relief in everyday work. No long training period is required; printing is intuitive. And, of course, environmental and health protection are important arguments in favor of filament printing; for instance, no toxic fumes are released. When it comes to print quality, it's particularly convincing for orthodontic applications."

"The accuracy of the models is exceptional. The appliances we deliver neeed to be very precise and this printer allows us to deliver a high quality product. I recommend the Simplex 3D printer to any office or lab wanting a great printer that functions well, needs minimal maintenance and prints a great model!".

"In terms of accuracy and precision, filament printing offers optimum quality for orthodontic models.  I would also like to emphasize the simplicity and process reliability of the SIMPLEX 3D filament printing system. It does not require extensive training. Application errors are virtually eliminated thanks to automatic presettings. And as I would like to avoid processing biologically harmful materials - if possible - filament printing also has a clear advantage here. Among other things, there are bio-filaments. In addition, there is no need for post-processing with chemicals."
