Tera Harz TC-85 with Shape Memory
Direct Aligner Printing
Now achievable with the world’s first shape-memory resin for 3D-printed aligners. Tera Harz TC-85, developed by Graphy Inc., a South Korean company, has quickly revolutionized the planning and delivery of aligner treatments.
Aligner 4.0
Direct Print Aligners
Customized design
Better fit on teeth for better tracking and more effective treatment.
Uniformity
Avoid the inconsistent material thickness of thermoformed aligners..
Variability
Change the thickness to apply more or less force depending on your objective.
Shape memory
When direct print aligners are exposed to body heat, they return to their original shape. There is no permanent deformation.
Comfort
The aligners can be easily inserted after warming them up in hot water. Effortlessly, even with severe crowding or attachments.
Options
Avoid attachments that would be required for vacuum formed aligners, or design auxiliaries directly onto the aligners.
Tera Harz TC-85 can do all that and more!
We are just at the beginning of Aligner 4.0!

Tera Harz Cure 2
A special light curing device for a special material
To make the most of the resin’s capabilities, including color and physical properties, the TC-85 resin must be cured in a THC2 polymerization unit. This device, developed specifically for this resin, features an adjustable, high-energy UV LED light source and an attached *nitrogen generator.
*The nitrogen generator requires a compressed air supply of at least 7 bar and a flow rate of 100 l/min. Compressors should have a tank volume of at least 20 l.
Programs
Automatic cooling & safety
Temperature control and safety shutdown at critical LED temperature.
7.9” touch screen
N
Optimized curing with built-in compact nitrogen generator
LED light source
High intensity and uniform 360° LED irradiation
Tera Harz Spinner
Cleaning with centrifugal force
Unlike conventional 3D printing resins, the aligners made of TC-85 must not be washed in alcohol (isopropanol). After 3D printing, they are placed in the Tera Harz Spinner. The centrifugal force removes the excess material adhering to the surface. The Tera Harz Spinner is therefore an indispensable part of the manufacturing process for aligners printed with TC-85.

Uniz 3D printers
Both Uniz printers – the NBEE and the UBEE – are approved for Graphy TC-85. This means that Graphy’s resin for Direct Print Aligners can be efficiently processed on both devices.
