Common Issues We Fix
Straumann CARES® milling machines are high-performance systems, and like any precision equipment, they can experience issues over time. Here are the most common problems we repair:
• Spindle wear or failure: one of the most common causes of milling errors
• Axis movement problems: the machine is not moving smoothly or accurately
• Calibration drift: milling results are off-spec or inconsistent
• Software and firmware errors: the machine won't connect or throws error codes
• Water system issues, such as leaks, clogs, or pump failures in wet milling units
• Collet and tool holder damage, causing vibration or poor restoration quality
• Control board and electronics failure: the machine won't power on or crashes
• Coolant system blockages affecting wet milling performance
• Sensor and limit switch failures are causing machine faults
• General wear and preventive maintenance keep your machine running longer

Dentist Pain Points, We Get It
If you've ever had your milling machine go down, you know exactly how it feels. Here's what we hear from dental professionals every day:
1. Machine Downtime = Lost Revenue
Every hour your CARES® unit sits idle is money you're not making. A single day of downtime can cost a busy practice thousands of dollars in lost same-day crown cases. You can't afford to wait weeks for a manufacturer's repair.
2. Same-Day Dentistry Is Under Pressure
Your patients chose your practice because you offer same-day restorations. When your milling machine fails, that promise falls apart. Patients leave disappointed, and they remember.
3. Patient Delays and Cancellations
A broken CAD/CAM machine means rescheduling appointments, making difficult calls, and managing frustrated patients. The stress ripples through your entire team.
4. Workflow Disruption
Your digital workflow depends on every component working in sync: scanner, software, and milling unit. When the milling machine fails, the entire chain breaks down. Your team scrambles. Productivity drops.
5. Staff Stress and Morale
When equipment breaks down, it's not just the dentist who feels it. Your front desk, your assistants, your lab staff, everyone is affected. A quick repair isn't just good for business. It's good for your team.
6. High Replacement Costs
A new Straumann milling unit can cost tens of thousands of dollars. Repair is almost always the smarter, more cost-effective choice as long as you have the right repair partner.
