Dental prosthetic laboratory
The constant growth of the Ytrio Dinnbier Dental prosthetic laboratory necessitated the need to move from its small original location in the city of Valencia. A spacious ground floor in the municipality of Alboraya was chosen as the new location, capable of comfortably accommodating all the machinery and the increasingly larger team.
.
In the design of the new laboratory, the main premise was to create a workspace capable of streamlining the production process, fostering connections between the three gravity centers involved: administration, design, and manufacturing.
.
Through a small threshold, access is gained from the street to an extensive central space, the core and backbone of the ensemble. Here, the reception and administration area converge with the computer-aided design (CAD) zone. This is where orders are managed, different sections are organized, and prosthetics are digitally designed using specific software.
.
From this extensive "shared space," access is provided to manual workspaces, such as the resin and ceramic area, which are grouped along the longest facade to take advantage of the best natural lighting conditions. On the opposite side, farther from the windows, are the rooms containing the necessary machinery for the industrial production of prosthetics. Those requiring more interaction with workers, such as milling machines, 3D printers, or sandblasters, are located in small rooms resembling chapels with direct access from the central space. The room for ovens, compressors, and other ancillary spaces, such as changing rooms, bathrooms, warehouses, and a projection room, is in the more private part of the premises.
.
The furniture, designed to integrate with the structure, provides the necessary storage for trays or machinery and intuitively delimits each section, contributing to the overall perception of a dynamic space capable of assimilating the complexity of the production process.
