[History.]
Dentas has been shaped by decades of machine development for dental laboratories — from casting and soldering technologies to digital milling and controlled LPBF metal 3D printing systems.

[Development path.]
The Dentas story is not a single product launch. It is a step-by-step development path through dental machine engineering, digitalisation and controlled metal production.
The first semi-automatic casting appliance set the foundation for future Dentas machine development and long-term focus on dental production equipment.
A sandblaster and steam cleaner produced for Schütz Dental expanded the development path into practical laboratory equipment.
The first automatic casting machine in protective argon atmosphere supported non-metal alloys, precious and non-precious metals, titanium and similar materials.
Contactless soldering of precious and non-precious metals for dentistry and goldsmithing introduced another step toward controlled metal workflows.
The first digital milling machine marked a major turning point in the digitalisation of dental laboratories. The Arrow brand was born.
Dentas introduced its first 3D printer for metal alloys. The first model had a separated printer and pedestal design.
The machine for printing titanium, aluminium and other printable metals was introduced at IDS 2019.
The Arrow LMP100v3 became a compact LPBF system for laboratories evaluating controlled in-house dental metal production.
In November 2024, Dentas merged with SIPRA, strengthening the foundation for further development of compact LPBF systems for dental laboratories.
[Consistent.]
Dentas has always developed around practical machine use in dental laboratory environments.
From casting to LPBF, the focus remains on controlled production of dental metal components.
Each generation builds on the previous one — from manual processes to digital production and metal 3D printing.
The technologies changed, but the direction remained the same: practical machines for controlled dental metal workflows.
