AC Servos for fast, accurate motion
The MDX-650 incorporates Feed Forward Processing for fast cutting while maintaining extremely precise accuracy.
With Digital AC Servo motors on the X-, Y-, and Z- axes and a choice of High Precision or High Torque Spindles, the MDX-650 can effortlessly mill a variety of materials.
An optional Automatic Tool Changer (ATC) and Rotary Axis Unit enhance operation and productivity by allowing the MDX-650 to automatically change tools and mill two or four-surface molds and prototypes. Easy-to-use MODELA Player CAM software comes standard.
The MDX-650 offers engineers and designers the opportunity to quickly and inexpensively turn concepts into three-dimensional prototypes, eliminating costly outsourcing. Parts that could take days to get back from a service provider can now be manufactured in hours**. Multiple concept iterations can be produced in a variety of materials just as quickly - a handy option during product development. Best of all, proprietary concepts are kept in-house.
For the ultimate in performance milling, the MDX-650 offers the power, the precision and the versatility that make it the obvious choice.
* The MDX-650 mills a variety of materials, from resin, chemical woods, and ABS to light metals such as aluminum, brass and copper. (When using the Rotary Axis Unit, the MDX-650 cannot mill light metals.)
** Production time varies depending on the size and type of milling materials.
The MDX-650 - State-of-the-Art Industrial Design Tool
High Speed and Accuracy
Digital AC Servo (DAC) brushless motors on the MDX-650's X-, Y-, and Z- axes generate high speed and high torque for smooth, steady milling. These brushless motors help extend motor life to a robust 8,000 hours and further reduce motor maintenance.
Feed Forward Processing (FFP) is a predictive technology that anticipates tool path, produces greater accuracy, faster speed, increased energy efficiency and higher torque. The result: More precise millin
The Fine Details
The MDX-650 features a large 650mm x 450mm (25.59"x 17.71" work area*. Variable spindle speed of 3,000 to 12,000 rpm, a lengthy Z travel of 155mm (6.1" and accuracy of within 0.001mm/step (0.000039"/step) enable the MDX-650 to cut prototypes, patterns, dies and molds quickly and with amazing accuracy.
*The max. work area of the MDX-650 varies with the combination of options. Refer to the specifications.
Increased Productivity
The MDX-650 comes with these convenient and time-saving functions:
- · Rotating Speed and Feed Dial: Adjusts rotation speed or feed speed during milling. Simply pause the milling, turn the dial and then press "enter" to resume milling.
- · Repeat Milling Data Buffer: Temporarily stores cutting data for multiple production lots by simply pressing the "copy" button.
- · Spindle Life Display: Indicates spindle wear. Users can easily identify and replace worn spindles for consistent, high-quality output.
Versatile Performer
- · The High Torque Spindle quickly and easily mills a variety of materials, making it the perfect choice for rapid prototyping.
- · The High Precision Spindle creates smoother, high-resolution molds.
- · The optional Automatic Tool Changer (ATC) allows for unattended operation, from roughing through finishing.
- · The MDX-650's optional Rotary Axis Unit, when used with the MODELA Player 4 software, automatically mills two- or four-surface parts.
Enhanced Safety
Safety is an important feature of the MDX-650. The following come standard:
- · A large, conveniently located emergency stop switch for instant shut-down.
- · A spindle interlock switch that prevents machine operation when the spindle cover door is open.
An optional safety cover prevents access to the cutting mechanism during operation and also reduces noise and prevents swarf and dust from escaping.
