New features include an all new user-friendly virtual panel and support for G-Code programming which gives the MDX-40A compatibility with popular software programs including Mastercam, EdgeCAM, SurfCAM and GibbsCAM. The base unit offers a work area of 12” x 12” x 4.1.” The new MDX-40A is compact, easy to use and comes complete with SRP Player CAM Software which allows users to go from CAD model to physical prototype quickly. The MDX-40A is ideal for modeling and reviewing design concepts in house, which lowers costs, shortens the product development cycle and eliminates the security risks associated with outsourcing. Capable of producing a smooth surface finish on a wide variety of non-proprietary materials with a lower cost of ownership, we believe the MDX-40A offers the best value in the prototyping world today.” “The MDX-40A emulates actual manufacturing processes for prototypes that accurately reflect both a product’s functionality and its appearance. “In recent years, 3D CAD technologies have become indispensable to manufacturers that design and develop new products,” said Andrew Oransky, director of product management for Roland. The MDX-40A builds on Roland’s advanced Subtractive Rapid Prototyping (SRP) technology with new features, bundled software and valuable options that together make it even more versatile and easier to use. has announced its newest 3D desktop milling machine, the MDX-40A. The sensor gives an easy and precise way to set Z0 when not using top-loading tools.Free Upgrade for Existing Roland MDX-40/40K Customers This also lets you use Roland’s ingenious Z0 sensor – a unique feature for such a low-cost machine. Should you need full manual control over the machine, then there is an intuitive on-screen Virtual Control Panel. For simple 2D profiles, machine set-up and output is direct from 2D Design V2. Tool set-up is easy using TechSoft’s own top-loading collet system, but the machine also has a standard 6mm collet so a vast array of specialist tooling becomes available including TechSoft’s own range of long reach cutters designed for deep 3D machining. To further complete the package we have now developed an optional jig to enable schools to machine streamlined car bodies for the F1 Challenge. Connections on the machine allow an optional 3D contact scanner to be fitted and there is even an optional 4th Axis unit to enable advanced machining routines for demanding senior students. Versatility and Ease of UseThe MDX-40AE is clever too.
