This causes the fixation spring lever to deform.
After pressing/pushing down the fixation spring

lever, it cants/chocks with the fixation pins and
thus firmly clamps the object against the universal
holder.

Positioning and affixing single
models
Always position models in such a manner
that they are within the scan focus. In the
scanner, the scan focus is located on the
level of the tilting axis (see figure 12).

6.2.1
Single model fixation using the univer-
sal holder
The placement of the model on the univer-
sal holder should be performed outside of
the scanner.
▷ Apply modelling wax uniformly on the universal
holder.
▷ Place the model centrally on the universal
holder and press it firmly against the modelling
wax.
To ensure that the model being scanned is suffi-
ciently affixed to the universal holder and does
not become loose and fall off during the scan
process, the following must be observed:
▷ Press the model with both hands firmly against
the modelling wax.
▷ Pay attention that the complete bottom surface
of the model base has contact with the model-
ling wax.
NOTE:
The model must not project beyond the rear lim-
itation (metal pins) of the universal holder.
