📌 Product Description
PioNext Mini is designed for dentists and dental technicians who need a compact, accurate and easy-to-use 3D printer for producing dental parts from photopolymer resins. Unlike a standard LCD printer, this model integrates printing and curing into one device, making the workflow more compact: less equipment on the desk, fewer transfers between devices and a cleaner working area.
The build volume of 80 × 70 × 80 mm is suitable for small dental parts, single restorations, models, aligner-related work, splints and other applications where accuracy, repeatability and production speed are important. With a machine size of 200 × 170 × 241 mm, the unit can be placed easily in a dental office or small lab without requiring a large dedicated area.
Support for 385 nm and 405 nm wavelengths gives more flexibility when choosing materials. This is important in dentistry because different resins may require different exposure and post-processing settings. For consistent results, always use a validated resin profile, perform exposure testing and follow the material manufacturer’s instructions.

🦷 Dental Applications
- removable dentures;
- veneers, crowns and inlays;
- orthodontic models;
- crystal-clear retainers;
- splints and night guards;
- dental models for diagnostics and treatment planning;
- chairside production in a dental office;
- small lab tasks where accuracy and short turnaround time are important.
🧪 Material Compatibility
PioNext Mini is designed to work with dental photopolymer resins suitable for LCD printing and compatible with 385 nm or 405 nm wavelengths. It can be used with dental resins for models, orthodontic applications, retainers, splints, temporary restorations and other dental workflows when the correct print profile and post-processing protocol are used.
Important: the biocompatibility of a finished dental part depends not only on the printer, but primarily on the selected resin, its certification, exposure accuracy, washing quality, drying and final curing. For medical and dental parts, use only materials intended for the specific clinical application.
💡 Printing and Integrated Curing
The main feature of PioNext Mini is that it combines printing and curing in one device. After printing, the part can be processed in the integrated curing area, which is especially convenient for small clinics and dental offices where there may not be enough space for a separate curing station.
The curing area measures 76.5 × 72.5 × 37 mm, and the curing light intensity is 150 mW/cm² at 405 nm. This makes the machine convenient for small dental parts, but the exact post-processing settings should always follow the resin manufacturer’s instructions.
🌡️ Heated Chamber
The working environment can heat up to 35 °C, helping improve resin flow. This is especially useful when working with more viscous dental materials: stable temperature can support more consistent layer formation, reduce the risk of defects and help produce a smoother surface.
✅ Workflow Convenience
- Intuitive operation: the 3.97″ color touch screen makes task selection and print control easier.
- Leveling-free design: four-point alignment reduces manual setup work.
- Two resin vats: convenient for working with different materials without constantly changing one vat.
- Compact body: suitable for a dental office, clinic or small laboratory.
- USB/WiFi transfer: a convenient workflow with fewer file-handling steps.

⚙️ Recommended Starting Print Settings
For PioNext Mini, print settings depend on the exact dental resin, wavelength, layer height, temperature, material color and the requirements of the final part. Before production printing, perform exposure testing and use the profile recommended by the resin manufacturer.
| Parameter | Starting Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Layer Height | 0.05 mm for a balance of speed and detail |
| Fine Detail | 0.025–0.03 mm when maximum accuracy is required |
| Wavelength | 385 nm or 405 nm according to the material profile |
| Working Temperature | stable temperature, heated up to 35 °C when needed |
| Exposure | only according to the calibrated profile of the exact resin |
| Post-processing | washing, drying and curing strictly according to resin instructions |
🧼 Workflow Recommendations
- Mix the dental resin thoroughly before printing according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Use a clean vat, intact release film and calibrated print profile.
- Do not mix different resins unless the material manufacturer recommends it.
- After printing, wash the model thoroughly with a suitable cleaning agent.
- Dry the part completely before final curing.
- For clinical parts, follow the full post-processing protocol specified in the documentation for the biocompatible resin.
- Wear gloves, eye protection and work in a well-ventilated area.

❓ FAQ
PioNext Mini is designed specifically for dental applications and combines printing with integrated curing. It also supports 385 nm and 405 nm wavelengths, has a compact body, a 9K LCD screen and 18 μm XY accuracy. Yes. The model is designed for compact chairside use. It takes up little space and is suitable for daily dental tasks when appropriate dental resins and correct post-processing procedures are used. The printer can be used for such tasks when paired with the appropriate dental resins. It is important to use a material specifically intended for the required application and to follow its clinical protocol. Dental photopolymer resins compatible with LCD printing and 385 nm or 405 nm wavelengths are suitable. Always check the material profile and the resin manufacturer’s recommendations before printing. PioNext Mini includes an integrated curing area, so for small parts a separate curing station may not be required. However, this depends on the part size, resin type and post-processing requirements. Different dental resins may be designed for different wavelengths. Support for both 385 nm and 405 nm expands material choice and helps match the correct printing profile. It refers to the pixel size/accuracy in the XY plane. A smaller value allows higher potential detail when exposure, resin quality and post-processing are properly controlled. Technically, the printer is designed for photopolymer materials with compatible wavelengths, but dental parts should only be produced with specialized dental resins that have the required certification and intended use.How is PioNext Mini different from a standard LCD 3D printer?
