Legacy installation and migration eligibility assessed per case

What is PlastyCAD used for?
Legacy dental modelling software used in surgical-guide and digital production workflows. Existing PlastyCAD users and laboratories maintaining older design workflows.
Check incoming STL data, legacy design files and downstream manufacturing compatibility.
PlastyCAD features and edition differences
- Design preparation within a legacy guided-surgery workflow.
- Compatibility review for models and manufacturing output.

Licensed modules and packages
Tools and supported output depend on the licensed legacy edition.
PlastyCAD hardware and system requirements
The exact PlastyCAD release and licensed modules need a supplier-confirmed workstation specification.
| Component | Minimum or required check | Recommendation or preparation |
|---|---|---|
| Operating system / CPU | Confirm supported OS build and CPU architecture | Request the release-specific workstation table |
| RAM / GPU | No current numeric minimum verified in this guide | Confirm memory, VRAM and graphics API for the intended workflow |
| Storage | Installer size is separate from project capacity | Allow room for case files, exports and a tested backup |
| Connected equipment | Check incoming STL data, legacy design files and downstream manufacturing compatibility. | Confirm model, drivers and licensed interfaces before installation |
Do not buy a workstation from a generic CAD/CAM specification alone. Older manuals or another product in the same family may not apply to this edition.
Manufacturer requirements can change. Minimum specifications are not a performance guarantee for large cases, multiple applications or connected equipment. SSD storage and a tested backup are our preparation advice unless stated in the manufacturer guidance.
Compare requirements across the software cataloguePrepare for PlastyCAD installation
Preserve legacy PlastyCAD files and confirm the original release, licence and guide-production compatibility before migration.
- Record your exact release, licensed modules and intended workflow.
- Share your OS build, CPU, RAM, GPU/VRAM and free disk space for a workstation check.
- A valid manufacturer licence and the required module entitlement are needed. The displayed price covers installation and workflow consultation; software licences are purchased separately.
- Back up case files, settings and libraries; agree a recovery plan before an upgrade.
- Confirm import/export and connected-equipment tests with a representative case before production.
