Operator-Friendly Control and Software

Become a 3D milling expert almost immediately with the MDX-50’s simple yet powerful built-in control panel and virtual control panel (VPanel), and bundled SRP Player CAM software that’s easy-to-use and simplifies operation.

With the control panel at the front of the unit, almost all operations can be completed from the unit itself without having to go back to a PC. The VPanel interface operates seamlessly with the MDX-50 and allows users to make changes to spindle rotation or speed during operation.

Other Distinguishing Features

  • Advanced drive system supports dimensional stability
  • Large machining area plus enhanced machine rigidity and drive mechanics
  • Optional Rotary Axis with self-centering headstock and tailstock workpiece clamps
  • Simple-to-load tools and automatic machine calibration
  • Requires no special electrical set-up and needs no additional air compressor
  • Multi color-coded LED status light notifications and email notifications inform users of machine status
  • Built-in debris collection drawer with rail guided safety door for safe and clean production
  • Ideal for use in studio and educational environments
