imes-icore GmbH is one of the world's leading manufacturers of digital dental CAD/CAM production systems. The company was founded in 2002 in Eiterfeld, Hesse, Germany by Hugo Isert and Christoph Stark as a spin-off from the isel Group, which had been in business since 1972. The name reflects the company's philosophy: "imes" stands for integrated mechanics, electronics, and software, while "icore" represents integrated dental solutions. From its origins building custom CNC systems, imes-icore grew rapidly to become a global leader in dental milling technology, with over 5,000 machines produced and sold to customers in more than 100 countries through an extensive distribution network. Manufacturing takes place entirely in Germany at the Eiterfeld facility, where approximately 250 employees develop, build, and test every machine to order. The company operates a US Competence & Service Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. imes-icore is currently owned by EMZ Partners, a European private equity firm.

What to Look for When Buying a Used imes-icore

imes-icore CORiTEC machines are precision instruments built to produce dental restorations to micron-level tolerances. German engineering gives these machines excellent longevity, but dental production environments demand careful inspection on used units.

Test the spindle and axis system. CORiTEC machines use high-frequency spindles from 0.4 kW on compact models to 3.2 kW on the 650i, with speeds up to 50,000 RPM. Listen for bearing noise across the full RPM range. On 5-axis models, verify smooth motion in all rotary axes.

Inspect the tool changer and clamping system. CORiTEC machines feature automatic tool changers (10 to 20 positions) and zero-point clamping for blank positioning. Cycle the changer through every position. Test zero-point clamping for repeatable seating, as worn interfaces cause positional errors in finished restorations.

Verify wet and dry processing capability. Most CORiTEC models support both wet milling (for metals, glass ceramics) and dry milling (for zirconia, PMMA, wax). Confirm that coolant delivery, drainage, and filtration function properly.

Check the control software and blank changer. imes-icore machines run iCAM V5 or SmartControl software. Verify that the software boots cleanly, communicates with machine axes, and accepts standard file formats. On Loader variants, test the blank changer through a full cycle.

imes-icore CORiTEC Chairside & Compact Systems

CORiTEC one & one+

The CORiTEC one is a compact 4-axis chairside milling machine with a robust aluminum frame, HD touchscreen control, and the ability to process CAD/CAM blocks and pre-milled abutments. The CORiTEC one+ upgrades to 5-axis simultaneous machining, expanding compatibility to disc-based materials. Both models operate without external compressed air.

CORiTEC 150i & 250i Series

The CORiTEC 150i series provides full blank processing in a minimal footprint. The CORiTEC 250i PRO+ delivers a strong price-performance ratio with a 1 kW spindle, 6 mm shaft tools, 10-fold tool changer, and 5-axis machining in wet and dry modes. Loader versions add a 6-fold blank changer with zero-point clamping for automated overnight production.

imes-icore CORiTEC Lab & Production Systems

CORiTEC 350i Series

The CORiTEC 350i is imes-icore's flagship laboratory platform, processing all relevant dental materials in a single machine: zirconia, titanium, cobalt-chrome, PMMA, glass ceramics, wax, and composites. The 350i Loader adds a 12-position automatic blank changer for unattended production. The 350i PRO upgrades to high-resolution servo motors with absolute measuring systems. The newest 350i X PRO features a 3 kW spindle and 15-fold workpiece changer.

CORiTEC 650i & 850i Series

The CORiTEC 650i targets premium milling centers with a natural granite axis structure, linear drives, torque motors, and a high-frequency spindle (up to 50,000 RPM, 3.2 kW, HSK 25 interface). The 650i Loader includes a 16-slot blank changer for fully automated 24/7 production. The CORiTEC 850i adds full robotic automation for both tools and blanks.

imes-icore CORiTEC AM (Additive Manufacturing)

The CORiTEC AM100 metal 3D printer uses laser melting technology to produce dental frameworks including crowns, bridges, superstructures, and implant components. Capable of producing up to 250 tooth units per build cycle, the AM100 serves large laboratories seeking to add additive capability alongside subtractive CORiTEC milling.
