[Workflow](https://info.ackuretta.com/workflow?hsLang=en) # Workflow - **Digital workflow ** **3D printing technologies** improved the connection in the digital workflow from the digital scanning acquisition to the manufacturing process. **Producing dental applications** requires a specific workflow and use of specific resin. **Ackuretta Solution is aligned with dentist digital** workflow and can efficiently produce a wide range of dental applications. Ackuretta provides the slicing software, the printer, resins and post processing devices. This solution is compatible with all dental scan and CAD solutions.  After digital acquisition of the patient 's mouth via an **intraoral scanner**, dental practitioners will design dental applications using specialized **CAD software**. Once dental appliance design is completed CAD software generates a STL of the 3D geometry.  **ALPHA AI** is a slicing software specialized in dental application. ALPHA AI will load STL files, orient the model,  help design support, slice the file and send it via remote printing commands to the printer.  - **Printing **   Ackuretta printer is an **open system** compatible with **more than 150 validated resins** for [SOL](https://drive.google.com/file/d/11eQYgOJsbUrtDN48VnbqJE9vW1XAK657/view) and  for [DENTIQ](https://ackuretta.com/products/dentiq-dental-3d-printer). Printers and build platforms are made for a tailored **workflow** that fits with your application. **CURO Resins** have **different shades** that can be adapted to patients' mouth characteristics [CURO webpage](https://ackuretta.com/collections/curo-resins-for-dental-3d-printer)  Before using a resin, you must **shake** the bottle for at least **two minutes** to make sure it is thoroughly **mixed** and has the right consistency. This step is necessary before every print to be sure of a successful print.  Once the resin has been shaken and poured in the vat,  **stir** the resin with a **soft object** like a plastic spatula until the resin has an homogeneous consistency.Using sharp objects will damage the vat film so **do not put sharp objects inside the vat!** Our printers are plug and play and do not require z- axis calibration at the first print. Print with the **hood closed** so that your print and resin is not affected by the **ambient UV** light and/or external contamination. Otherwise you may need to equip your environment with **UV protected light**.      If you shut down the printer during the print process, the **printer pauses** and will give you the option to resume the print from the last layer when you turn the printer back on.   Once the print is done, we will recommend removing objects from the **build platform** using a **utility knife** or a **scrapper**. You can also use a **mallet** for models.   After printing you can keep your resin in the vat after a print in a **drawer** or in your **black vat box** to protect it safely against the light and dust. You must also **stir** it thoroughly again before starting another print. Following these steps you should **consistently** obtain good results with your prints. However, there are many factors that can cause a **failure**, such as a misprint of a layer which will cause a delamination of the object.   If a print fails please use the **Clean vat function**. Please find a video about print vat function here \[[SOL – Cleaning the Vat](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmUbxHB7OqU)\] You do not need to use this function after every print.  Our support team is dedicated to providing you **help** and **advice** if you have any issue. Most parts can be easily replaced without you needing to send your printer to us. Please register to the user dashboard to get access to our detailed **troubleshooting** steps at any time  - **Post processing ** Once the print is completed,your print requires different steps of **post-processing**. Post-processing procedure consists of **cleaning** the print, **removing** supports, and then **post-curing** the print for a few minutes.  **CLEANI** dual tank washer is specialized for washing print. Once cleaning is completed you will need to **dry** the printed part efficiently to avoid that alcohol **discolored** or **damage** the print.  **CURIE** is a UV oven that post-cure the print to improve the print safety and mechanical properties.    Since each resin viscosity and fillerare not the same, they require **specific calibration** parameters of **CURIE** UV oven that include time, power, duty cycle. Please find the post curing settings in the following documents. Find more about the post processing step on our dedicated [video](https://ackuretta.com/pages/video-gallery?videoId=NNoSsWL-bLQ).    Our CURIE oven is **validated** with our 3D printing solution, if you use a different uv curing oven, you should make sure to **verify** the **parameters**. Ackuretta **does not guarantee** successful results with a non-validated unit. .  - [Rodin resin](https://info.ackuretta.com/rodin-resin?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Partner Resin](https://info.ackuretta.com/rodin-resin?hsLang=en#partner-resin) - [CURO resins](https://info.ackuretta.com/rodin-resin?hsLang=en#curo-resins) - [3D Dental Printers](https://info.ackuretta.com/3d-dental-printers?hsLang=en#main-content) - [General](https://info.ackuretta.com/3d-dental-printers?hsLang=en#general) - [SOL SE](https://info.ackuretta.com/3d-dental-printers?hsLang=en#sol-se) - [DENTIQ](https://info.ackuretta.com/3d-dental-printers?hsLang=en#dentiq) - [SOL Plus](https://info.ackuretta.com/3d-dental-printers?hsLang=en#sol-plus) - [Washer](https://info.ackuretta.com/washer?hsLang=en#main-content) - [CLEANI](https://info.ackuretta.com/washer?hsLang=en#cleani) - [CLEANI with Tank Plus](https://info.ackuretta.com/washer?hsLang=en#cleani-with-tank-plus) - [UV Ovens](https://info.ackuretta.com/uv-ovens?hsLang=en#main-content) - [CURIE](https://info.ackuretta.com/uv-ovens?hsLang=en#curie) - [UV Box](https://info.ackuretta.com/uv-ovens?hsLang=en#uv-box) - [CURIE Plus](https://info.ackuretta.com/uv-ovens?hsLang=en#curie-plus) - [Nitrogen Generator](https://info.ackuretta.com/nitrogen-generator?hsLang=en#main-content) - [NFinity](https://info.ackuretta.com/nitrogen-generator?hsLang=en#nfinity) - [Slicing Software](https://info.ackuretta.com/slicing-software?hsLang=en#main-content) - [ALPHA AI](https://info.ackuretta.com/slicing-software?hsLang=en#alpha-ai) - [ALPHA AI Premium](https://info.ackuretta.com/slicing-software?hsLang=en#alpha-ai-premium) - [Workflow](https://info.ackuretta.com/workflow?hsLang=en) - [Warranty](https://info.ackuretta.com/warranty?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Policies](https://info.ackuretta.com/warranty?hsLang=en#policies) - [Services](https://info.ackuretta.com/services?hsLang=en) - [Software & Hardware Updates](https://info.ackuretta.com/software-hardware-updates?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Slicing Software](https://info.ackuretta.com/software-hardware-updates?hsLang=en#slicing-software) - [3D Printers](https://info.ackuretta.com/software-hardware-updates?hsLang=en#3d-printers) - [UV Oven](https://info.ackuretta.com/software-hardware-updates?hsLang=en#uv-oven) - [Sales](https://info.ackuretta.com/sales?hsLang=en) - [Home](http://dashboard.ackuretta.com/) - [About Us](http://dashboard.ackuretta.com/about-us) - [Contact Us](http://dashboard.ackuretta.com/contact-us) - [Default HubSpot Blog](http://ackuretta-2471334.hs-sites.com/blog) [![Ackuretta & Pac-Dent Logo](https://info.ackuretta.com/hs-fs/hubfs/(Vert)Ackuretta%20Logo_Pac-Dent_Color.png?width=4167&height=4098&name=(Vert)Ackuretta%20Logo_Pac-Dent_Color.png "Ackuretta & Pac-Dent Logo")](http://ackuretta.com) ackuretta.com Help Center Copyright © 2026, Ackuretta
