ROLAND MODELA MDX-40R 3D Scanner & Desktop CNC Mill
The Roland MDX-40R Modela is a computer
controlled mill for the desktop. A 3D scanning
attachment will be available in the future as an optional accessory.
Versatile
Easy to use and compatible with all 3D CAD software programs,
the Roland MDX-40R Modela is a fast and affordable CNC mill.
With a motor ten times more powerful and over three times faster than
the entry-level Roland MDX-20/15 Modela, the Roland MDX-40R is perfect
for larger product designs, durable prototypes for testing, and prototype
tooling. The MDX-40R is ideal for product designers, jewellers, educators
and custom part production.
Materials suitable for cutting include timber, casting wax
and plastics such as polypropylene, polystyrene and acrylic. Even
thin wall polypropylene parts can be cut to create flexible parts.
The optional rotary axis unit provides automatic multi-sided cutting
for complex
product parts to further reduce product development times. Parts
can be cut from multiple sides without user intervention.
Two-sided cutting of parts too large for the rotary axis can be achieved
by manually turning material over. A step-by-step tutorial to do manual
turnovers
can be
provided
by Qubic.
Easy to Use
The MDX-40 connects via USB just like a standard paper printer. By following
the simple instructions included, the MDX-40R can
be
3D milling within minutes of unpacking.
The Roland MDX-40R Modela also
includes an electronic tool-length sensor to automatically calibrate
tools when
they are changed. This feature is usually only found on more expensive
professional mills.
The
supplied CAM software to control milling is uses a wizard to assist
users and is so straightforward that even
school
students
are
using it. For more experienced users, professional
computer aided manufacturing (CAM) programs such as Mastercam,
PowerMill and Visualmill can be used, providing
industry level features.
Value
The Roland MDX-40R is supplied with Modela Player 4 software and Qubic
can provide a range of cutters
to get started straight away. All
you
need
to supply
is
a
computer. Qubic can also supply a range of 3D design and
toolpath programs for complete design creativity.
