The MDX-40A can be upgraded with a new, optional ZCL-40A rotary axis unit that supports twice the cutting area of the previous model and features a new spring-loaded tool sensor for fast, accurate calibration. The result is superior parts with smooth surfaces and accurate, tight-fit precision. SRP Player offers a straightforward and intuitive workflow, using illustrated prompts that guide users through each step. The MDX-40A is packaged with Roland SRP Player CAM software, ideal for rapid prototyping and custom rapid manufacturing applications. To access the free upgrade, MDX-40/40K customers should visit The free upgrade includes the latest MDX-40A firmware, installer for MDX-40A Vpanel, MDX-40A Windows Driver (32-bit), and installer for MDX-40A ClickMill software. New bundled ClickMill software enables direct control of the MDX-40A for surfacing, hole drilling, cutting pockets and other finishing processes, all without accessing CAD or CAM software.įree Performance Upgrade for Existing Customersįor existing MDX-40 and MDX-40K customers, Roland has announced a free performance upgrade, enabling these professionals to update their MDX-40 hardware with all the new software and firmware features and capabilities of the MDX-40A free of charge.
