HBL-YTJ-02 All-in-One Automated Clear Aligner Machine – 120 Aligners per Hour

1. Product Introduction

The HBL-YTJ-02 All-in-One Automated Clear Aligner Machine is an integrated manufacturing system designed for medium- to large-scale clear aligner manufacturers, OEM factories, and dental production facilities. With a specified production capacity of up to 120 aligners per hour, the machine combines automatic material feeding, thermoforming, laser marking, and robotic CNC trimming in a consolidated production unit.

The updated system incorporates an automatic film-cutting module to support an automated workflow from film roll processing to finished aligner production. It accommodates film rolls and film sheets, including square and round formats, offering greater flexibility for different manufacturing requirements.

Automatic dental model feeding, visual recognition, and precise positioning help reduce repetitive manual handling. The thermoforming module evenly heats and softens film material, while an ABB six-axis robot supports flexible trimming of complex and curved aligner edges. The integrated laser marking module can mark numbers, letters, barcodes, QR codes, and logos.

Developed by ConverSight, the HBL-YTJ-02 is designed for manufacturers seeking higher production throughput, consistent processing quality, and an integrated approach to clear aligner manufacturing.

4. Main Processing Modules

Automatic Film Feeding and Cutting

The updated system incorporates an automatic film-cutting module and supports film-roll processing. This enables a more continuous material supply workflow and helps reduce manual film preparation.

Automatic Dental Model Recognition and Loading

A vision-based recognition system identifies dental models and supports accurate positioning on the machine tooling. The automatic feeder accommodates up to 96 models across four boxes, supporting extended operation without frequent manual reloading under suitable conditions.

Thermoforming Unit

The thermoforming unit heats and softens the selected film material before forming it over the dental model. Appropriate heating and forming parameters are required to achieve the desired fit and shape.

Laser Marking Unit

The integrated laser marker supports the application of identifying information, including numbers, letters, barcodes, QR codes, and logos, according to the selected marking configuration.

Robotic CNC Trimming

The ABB six-axis robot works with the trimming module to process aligner edges according to the required cutting path. Its flexible motion supports complex and curved outlines.

Optional Laser Trimming Module

For projects requiring laser-based edge processing, an optional laser trimming module can be discussed with the manufacturer. The final selection should be based on material compatibility, trimming quality, and throughput requirements.
