Roland DG MDX-40 engraving machine, focused on 3d modeling.
Like all Roland SRP devices, the MDX-40 can mill a wide range of low cost, non-proprietary materials including ABS, delrin, nylon, and tooling board. This lets engineers create functional prototypes to test how well products will actually work. Handled by market focus groups, these prototypes must perform like the final manufactured product and survive a barrage of physical tests, including thermal and structural trials. For example, toothbrush prototypes undergo in-vivo testing for hand fit, brush reach and handle deflection.

- Creates the most accurate prototypes for complex snap-fits
Proves part manufacturability better than additive methods
Handles a wide variety of materials and generates a smooth surface finish - Optional 4th rotary axis or included as part of MDX-40-K configuration
- Bundled 4-axis CAM software
- [305 (X) x 305(Y) x 105 (Z) mm]maximum work volume without Rotary Axis
- High-speed 15,000 rpm spindle for creating detailed features with fine tools
- Emergency stop switch and machine cover for clean, quiet and safe work environment
