Description
The VHF Z4 CAD CAM was designed from the ground up to be a dental milling solution that can deliver same-day dentistry and an improved patient experience with high-quality restorations in just one session.
The VHF Z4 CAD CAM Dental milling machines is a groundbreaking tool for same-day digital dentistry. The system offers the accuracy, reliability, material spectrum, and ease of use dentists need for restorations in just one session. Mill and grind with the Z4 in Ultra HD for perfect results and connect with popular software and intraoral scanners for a complete end-to-end workflow.
The VHF Z4 milling machine for wet machining for restorations in mere minutes.Its futuristic housing and intuitive, easy-to-use operating controls conceal a high-precision milling and grinding machine that shares the “DNA” of the best laboratory machines.
VHF Z4 mill is compatible with all established scanners and design software and it has a fully integrated workflow with 3Shape®, DWOS® chairside (dental Wings) and Exocad ChairsideCAD* allowing it to easily fit into a complete digital workflow.

VHF Z4 Benefits and Advantages
Highest Precision & Fastest Production
- Milling and grinding in Ultra-HD
- Proven industrial quality
- 3 microns repetition accuracy
- Restorations in under 10 minutes
- 2-second block insertion
- 100,000 RPM electrical high-frequency spindle
Maximum Independence
- 38 block materials
- 800+ prefab titanium abutment blanks
- Compatible with all established scanners and design software
- CAM software included
- Integrated PC with touch screen, which means that no laptop/desktop is required
- Wi-Fi connectivity allows for positioning the mill wherever you want in your dental office
- Built-in compressed air
Intelligent and Intuitive
VHF Z4 uses different size tools
- Automatic changer for 6 tools with haptic tool length detection and tool breakage monitoring
- 5 tool changer inserts (6 tools each) coded for different applications or materials
- Color-coded tool magazines
Cost Saving and Performance
- Widest choice of materials
- Flexibility in intraoral scanners
- Seamless workflow due to Z4’s integration with 3Shape™, DWOS Chairside™ and Exocad ChairsideCAD™
- Z4 doesn’t require additives as it purely operates with clear water
- Z4 can mill even titanium abutments due to its sturdy build.
- Produce your titanium implant abutments with the use of prefab abutment blanks. For hybrid implant restorations such as a screw-retained crown or hybrid abutments, standard blocks can be used, as the Z4 drills the screw channel itself
- All blocks with the most commonly used CEREC® or universal mandrel can be loaded into the Z4
Smart. Silent. Sturdy
- Z4 reminds you and gives detailed instructions on cleaning and maintenance
- Easy-cleaning coating
- The inside of the milling chamber is coated with non-stick paint that lets the water just drip off.
- Noise reduction. Silent mode is available.
- Extra thick layers of sound-absorbing foam around the milling chamber helps to reduce noise
- Massive machine bed of aluminum cast to minimize vibrations and distortions
- Finely balanced spindle
- State-of-the-art controller
Safe Operation
- Z4 checks if the right tool magazine is loaded
- It measures the blocks to ensure that the right size is being loaded
- One cannot open the mill during operation due to its patient protection lock mode
- A service camera is incorporated so that the service technicians can review the recorded video stream
