Planmeca Imprex™ wins Red Dot Award
The Planmeca Imprex™ mobile scanning station has been awarded with a Red Dot in this year’s Red Dot Award: Product Design competition. The scanning station streamlines capturing digital impressions and visualising treatment data for patients.
Introduced at IDS 2023, the Planmeca Imprex™ mobile scanning station convinced the jury of the renowned Red Dot design competition in the product design category.
Planmeca Imprex is a mobile medical-grade computer system which allows dental professionals to capture digital impressions with a Planmeca Emerald® S intraoral scanner and easily communicate treatment data to patients using a touch screen. The screen is mounted on a 50 cm monitor arm, which can be adjusted to an optimal angle to suit ergonomic working positions, regardless of whether the user is sitting or standing or right- or left-handed.
The scanning station comprises an integrated high-performance PC, which resides within a rounded cover designed to ensure an optimal flow of air for efficient cooling of the system and a compact appearance. The computer has plenty of calculation power for carrying out digital workflows. This eliminates the need for a separate laptop, which streamlines intraoral scanning and allows dentists to engage patients by visualising clinical data on the touch screen.
The system comes with a pre-installed Planmeca Romexis® software suite and is ready for immediate use after unboxing. Thanks to its unique tripod construction and wheels, Planmeca Imprex adapts to various clinical environments as it can be moved and rotated freely close to any dental unit. The scanning station can also be easily shared between treatment rooms.
“Planmeca Imprex has been crafted in line with Planmeca’s design philosophy to create products that are functional, durable and beautifully designed. In addition to having the same recognisable and timeless aesthetics as other Planmeca products, Planmeca Imprex fits seamlessly into any clinical environment thanks to its unique tripod construction. I am extremely delighted by the acknowledgment from Red Dot, as it confirms that our focus on innovative design aimed at enhancing the daily work of dental professionals is indeed the right approach,” says Pontus Degerlund, CAD/CAM Director at Planmeca.
