SprintRay Adds Foundation Scanner, Nano Series and GC Resin to Its Digital Dentistry Platform

At 3DNext 2026 in Miami Beach, the dental 3D printing company extended its ScanOS workflow from scanning through chairside production and post-processing.

SprintRay used the 3DNext 2026 meeting in Miami Beach to introduce three additions to its digital dentistry platform: Foundation, a wireless full-colour intraoral scanner built for the company's ScanOS software; the Nano Series compact chairside production workflow; and an expanded materials partnership with GC Corporation. SprintRay said it has produced more than 20 million dental parts worldwide.

Foundation brings scanning into ScanOS

Foundation is described as the first intraoral scanner designed for ScanOS, placing scanning in the same account and interface used for design and production. SprintRay says this lets practices move from digital capture to a finished case without a separate file export or upload step after scanning. The scanner is wireless and captures full colour. It will officially launch in the United States, with first shipments expected in November 2026.

Amir Mansouri, Ph.D., co-founder and chief executive officer, said SprintRay had for years connected scanning and printing through third-party integrations, but the experience still required practices to move between systems. ScanOS, he said, makes scanning a native part of the SprintRay workflow.

Nano Series targets single-case chairside work

The Nano Series – NanoPrint, NanoWash and NanoCure – is aimed at what SprintRay estimates is about 80% of chairside print jobs, namely those involving a single patient and a single case. The connected print, wash and cure workflow occupies less than 30 inches of counter space.

  • NanoPrint uses a 385 nm light engine.
  • NanoWash automates washing and drying.
  • NanoCure completes post-processing.
  • AutoPrint and Job Handoff connect production steps and carry case information through the workflow.

The series supports clinical applications through SprintRay's validated materials library, with specific indications and availability varying by market. Mansouri said the Nano Series was designed to make chairside production more intuitive and practical for the dental team, bringing the workflow together in a compact footprint while maintaining the standards clinicians expect from SprintRay.

GC partnership adds a hybrid ceramic resin

Through the partnership with GC Corporation, SprintRay has launched GC GRADIA PREMi, a hybrid ceramic restorative resin developed for the SprintRay Midas Digital Press workflow. The collaboration brings GC's restorative materials expertise to SprintRay's capsule-based Digital Press platform, with the aim of expanding material options for definitive chairside restorations. Specific clinical indications, performance claims and regional availability remain subject to GC's final approved product labelling and regulatory review.

Mansouri said openness matters but so does validation, describing the approach as working with leading partners to broaden what clinicians can do while maintaining rigorous workflow standards.

Shipment timing and regional limits

Nano Series shipments are expected to begin in November 2026 in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the European Union, subject to applicable regional regulatory requirements and product availability. NanoWash is not part of the Canadian launch offering.

Taken together, the announcements extend SprintRay's connected workflow from scanning and design through production and post-processing, although the scanner and Nano Series were presented as launches with shipments still to come rather than products already in the field.
