Medical device company Align Technology has expanded its iTero line with two new digital scanners, the iTero Element 2 and the iTero Element Flex.

The iTero Element 2 scanner has a 25% faster scan processing time than the iTero Element and includes an integrated lithium-ion battery that allows the scanner to be moved between operatories, according to the company.

The iTero Element Flex is a wand-only device that allows compatible laptop computers to function as a scanner.

Both scanners work with existing iTero orthodontic and restorative workflows and allow open stereolithography (STL) export, according to Align.
