title: Verifying the reliability of interchanging casts between Hanau Modular articulators.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The purpose of this study was to test the Hanau Modular Articulator system with programmed fossae to determine its interchangeability.
  
  
  METHODS
  Eight Hanau Modular Articulators were tested using the same measuring system as previously developed in a similar investigation on a different instrument.
  
  
  RESULTS
  It was determined that the Hanau Modular System with programmed fossae did possess accuracy when a measuring device was transferred between the eight articulators tested.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Laboratory procedures for multiple restorations can be accomplished with accuracy when master casts and mountings are transferred between Hanau Modular Articulators.
