CADtools will distribute GPAINNOVA’s machinery and supplies to dental labs in Germany
February 12 , 2021
GPAINNOVA, the global leading company in dry-electropolishing solutions for metals, medical devices and aquatic drones, has just reached a distribution agreement with CADdent, one of the main German companies specialized in solutions for the dental industry. Under the umbrella of its latest business line, the CADtools brand, CADdent will distribute GPAINNOVA’s machinery and supplies to dental laboratories on the German market. This partnership will enable GPAINNOVA to extend its presence in the metal manufacturing industry sector in one of the major countries in Europe.
From now on, CADtools, created in 2018, will be CADdent’s line to sell machinery, equipment and a wide range of consumables for European dental labs. Additionally, CADtools will also offer technical support to assure an optimal maintenance of the distributed machines.
A big step forward in the cooperation between GPAINNOVA and CADdent
The agreement is a major step in the alliance between these two companies, who have been collaborating closely with each other since 2017. CADdent, whose activity revolves around dental technologies like laser melting, milling or 3D-printing, has been using since then three machines designed and created by GPAINNOVA’s. Specifically, CADdent’s fleet of machines includes some of the DLyte10D (a medium-size electropolishing machinery, easily integrated into medium-sized dental laboratories) and the DLyte100D (the biggest compact machinery for dental laboratories with large production).
Both are patented machines for grinding and polishing cobalt-chrome and titanium alloys for the dental industry. They are available for all types of dental bone supports, spacers, crowns, bars, anatomical structures, implants and orthodontic supports.
These two machines are based on the disruptive DLyte technology. This solution simplifies and standardizes the post-production process of metal parts, improving the finishing results obtained with traditional polishing systems. In September 2018, DLyte received the TCT Award for excellence in Additive Manufacturing Post-Processing.

CADdent offers more than 55 years expertise in the dental sector.
