Technical Specs

The Roland MDX-50 is Roland's newest Subtractive Rapid Prototyping (SRP) system. The Roland MDX-50 allows you to go from an initial prototype in a modeling material to the final finished product out of a wide range of materials. The MDX-50 is also a complementary technology to 3D printing as it gives you a wider choice of materials, smoother surface finish, and higher accuracy. The Roland MDX-50 fits perfect in an office, lab, fablab, maker space, classroom or manufacturing floor. With the new automatic tool changer and the ZCL-50A Rotary Axis Unit the MDX-50 can run fully unattended to create highly complex multi-sided prototypes and finished parts. With the updated SRP Player Software (included) a novice can be making parts in as little as a few hours. Add some of our exclusive accessories and the Roland MDX-50 is transformed into a PC Board prototype system, an engraver, a jewelry wax carver. The new fully automated Roland MDX-50 allows users of all abilities and budgets the opportunity to make functional parts with incredible quality and mechanical accuracy from a wide range of materials.
