SHINING 3D Ceramix-Nano Chairside Dental 3D Printer
SHINING 3D Ceramix-Nano is a compact capsule-based dental 3D printer designed for fast same-day production of permanent and temporary chairside restorations.
Weighing approximately 2 kg, the Ceramix-Nano combines high-speed DLP printing and professional post-curing in a single compact system. It is designed to simplify chairside 3D printing by replacing conventional resin tanks with pre-measured material capsules.
Fast Same-Day Restorations
Ceramix-Nano is designed around a streamlined scan-to-restoration workflow. Single crowns can typically be printed in approximately 8–11 minutes, while the integrated curing system can complete post-curing in 3 minutes or less.
When combined with intraoral scanning and SHINING 3D AI Design, the complete digital workflow can support same-appointment restoration production.
Adaptive Pneumatic Stereolithography Technology
SHINING 3D’s APS – Adaptive Pneumatic Stereolithography technology controls layer separation pressure during printing.
This system is designed specifically to handle high-viscosity, highly filled restorative materials that can be difficult to process using conventional resin-printing systems.
Integrated Printing and Curing
Ceramix-Nano combines printing and post-curing within a single compact machine.
The built-in curing chamber reaches temperatures up to 80°C and uses 365–385 nm curing light, reducing the need for a separate curing device for the supported Ceramix workflow.
Capsule-Based Material System
The printer uses pre-measured material capsules rather than a conventional open resin tank.
This helps simplify resin handling, reduces cleanup, and creates a more controlled chairside workflow. Each capsule is intended for single use. Depending on the restoration size, one capsule can support printing of up to three crowns.
Dental Applications
Ceramix-Nano supports:
- Crowns
- Bridges up to 3 units
- Veneers
- Inlays
- Onlays
- Permanent restorations
- Temporary restorations
SHINING 3D lists a maximum bridge capability of approximately 38 mm within the capsule printing chamber.
