SRP on Your Desktop

With the MDX-40 3D Milling Machine, you can quickly and easily create high-quality prototypes, parts and models right at your desktop. The MDX-40 allows industrial designers to perform a full range of subtractive rapid prototyping (SRP) applications in-house, eliminating the added time and security risks associated with outsourcing. It's a perfect tool for shortening the product development cycle and bringing complex product designs quickly to market.
