Eighteeth Helios 680 Intraoral Scanner

Description

The Eighteeth Helios 680 Intraoral Scanner is a chairside digital impression scanner that uses DLP structured light to capture 3D models of teeth, gums, and bite registration without conventional impression trays. It is built for routine restorative, implant, orthodontic, and aligner workflows in general practice.

Full-arch accuracy on the Helios 680 is rated at ≤20 µm with capture running at 30 FPS, which gives smooth scans during continuous motion. The unit produces true 24-bit full-color 3D images and offers a transparent scanning mode alongside the standard mode for cases that benefit from a different visual rendering. The scanner is calibration-free out of the box, so you plug it in over USB and start scanning without a separate calibration object or warm-up routine.

On-device AI handles soft-tissue filtering, noise reduction, occlusal contact analysis, and automatic margin line detection, which cuts down the manual cleanup time between capture and case export. Files export in open STL, OBJ, and PLY formats, and the Helios software is compatible with exocad, 3Shape, and Dental Wings CAD/CAM ecosystems. The scanner tip is autoclavable for up to 100 sterilization cycles, and software updates are pushed to the unit automatically through the cloud.

On Dentalkart, the Eighteeth Helios 680 intraoral scanner is available at the best price in India at ₹2,40,000, with COD and fast pan-India delivery on 100% genuine, warranty-backed equipment. Compare options in our intraoral scanner range, or browse more Eighteeth products.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the scanning accuracy of the Eighteeth Helios 680?

The Eighteeth Helios 680 captures intraoral scans at ≤20 µm full-arch accuracy using DLP structured light technology, with scanning at 30 FPS in true 24-bit color. That spec range is suitable for restorative, implant, and orthodontic case planning, including full-arch and quadrant scans for crown, bridge, and aligner cases.

What are the system requirements for the Helios 680?

The Helios 680 software runs on a Windows 10 or 11 workstation with an Intel Core i5 12th-generation processor, 16 GB DDR4 RAM, 256 GB SSD, and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 or better graphics card. The scanner connects to the workstation over USB and is calibration-free, so no separate calibration block is required.

Is the Eighteeth Helios 680 compatible with exocad and 3Shape?

Yes, the Eighteeth Helios 680 exports scans in open STL, OBJ, and PLY formats, and the workflow is compatible with exocad, 3Shape, and Dental Wings CAD/CAM platforms. This makes it practical for clinics that already work with in-house labs or external design partners on those systems, without proprietary file conversion.

How many times can the Helios 680 scanner tip be sterilized?

The Helios 680 scanner tip is autoclavable for up to 100 steam-sterilization cycles, which supports chairside infection-control protocols between patients. Tracking sterilization cycles per tip is a useful habit so optical clarity stays consistent across the lifecycle of each tip, and tips are replaced before performance drifts.
