ROLAND MODELA MDX-15 & 20 3D Scanner & Desktop CNC Mill

MDX-15

The Roland MDX-15 & 20 Modela is a unique 3D scanning and computer controlled mill for the desktop. It combines both a 3D scanner and a CNC mill in one machine. Both the 3D scanner and CNC mill devices are supplied as standard.

Versatile
Easy to use and compatible with many popular 3D CAD software programs, the Roland MDX-15/20 Modela is an affordable, all-in-one scanning and CNC milling device, perfect for a variety of product design tasks, from model and jewellery making to molds, rapid prototyping, small lot production and package design. Use it to test and modify your designs, reducing errors, time and cost.

Easy to Use
Just plug it in to your computer as you would a desktop printer. By following the simple instructions included in PDF format, even a beginner can be 3D scanning and milling in minutes. The supplied software to control 3D scans and milling is so easy to use that even school students are using Roland desktop 3D scanners and mills. For more experienced users, professional computer aided manufacturing (CAM) programs such as VisualMill can be used, providing industry level features.

Swapping between 3D scanning heads and milling heads is simply a matter of detaching two screws. Within minutes you can change from 3D scanning to milling and prototyping.

Value
The Roland MDX-15/20 comes complete with software and cutters to get you started straight away. All you need to supply is a home computer. For complete creativity, a computer aided design package for creating 3D models can be used.

Accessories
A wide range of accessories are available for the MDX series machines to assist in workholding and provide a rotary 4th axis. This makes the MDX series more capable than ever, especially for jewellery design and education users.
