Exporting for the ArchMill

As a prerequisite to these steps, please have a completed treatment plan in place for the patient you wish to export. Please see for additional information on creating a treatment plan.

To export an aligner trim path for your patient, follow these steps:

  1. Make sure your patient is open in the ArchForm software.
  2. Click on Trim Path and select Yes when prompted to generate a trim path.
  3. Adjust any variables for the trim path unless you plan to do a straight trim (more on this later).
  4. Export the aligner by following one of these methods:

    5. Interactive Mode

    1. Select the Interactive Mode button.
    2. AlignerMaker will open, displaying a preview of the trim path for each stage and arch, based on our software’s recommendation.
    3. Adjust any parameters for straight or scalloped cut, tilt during cut, and other preferences.
    4. Export the aligner and it will upload the trim path to the cloud, while saving the 3D files, IPR report, and QR Labels locally.

    Cloud Mode

    1. Select the Cloud Mode button to initiate the process.
    2. The software will then generate a recommended trim path for each arch and it will upload the trim path to the cloud, while saving the 3D files, IPR report, and QR Labels locally.
