Description
The Models MDX-20/15 is a machine with the dual ability to function as 3D digitizing and milling machine. While milling machine to manufacture Models in a subtractive process objects in three dimensions from a block of material by reading a file with instructions for numerically controlled (CNC) that control the arm of the machine that can move along three axes ( x, y, z). The CNC file is generated automatically from a CAD file using a proprietary software, installed on the computer that controls the machine. The Models to work with a wide range of materials including wood, stone, metal soft, polyurethane, etc.. And give them different types of finish, changing the type of drill. Sunstituindo the drill by a sensor unit, the model becomes a precision 3D scanner, capable of analyzing objects in 4 to 15 mm per second with a resolution of up to 0.05 mm (0.002 ").
