Software Operating System Overview

Windows driver Windows This is necessary when sending data to MDX-20/15 from a

Windows-based program.

MODELA programs

The Windows versions of MODELA Player, MODELA 3D

DESIGN, and MODELA 3D TEXT cannot be set up separately.

For the Mac OS version, there is only MODELA Player.

MODELA PlayerWindows

Mac OS

Windows

This sets the required parameters for cutting solid objects and

sends the cutting data to MDX-20/15.

This can import not only solid objects created with 3D problems

from Roland DG, but also solid objects created using other

commercially available 3D programs via DXF or STL.

MODELA 3D DESIGN

This lets you choose a basic shape such as a cylinder or sphere,

and modify it to create a 3D object.

You can intuitively create solid objects with smooth curves.

You can use MDX-20/15 to cut solid objects and save data in

3D DXF files.

MODELA 3D TEXT Windows

This adds thickness to text to create 3D characters. It's also

possible to edit text to make it bold, italic, or the like. You can

put a box around text with just a single click - a handy feature

when making nameplates.

You can use MDX-20/15 to cut 3D text and save data in 3D

DXF files.

Virtual MODELA Windows

This simulates tool movement before performing cutting with

MDX-20/15.

You can use it to check the finished shape as well as things like

whether the cutting depth is suitable and how much time cutting

will take. This can reduce loss for cutting materials and time.

Dr. Engrave Windows

This is used to design plates and send the engraving data to MDX-

20/15.

You can make large numbers of plates with the same design

with high efficiency. You can use the TrueType fonts registered

in Windows as the font style for text. You can even make stroke

fonts from TrueType fonts.

Because you can the outline of an image and convert it to line

segments, it's also possible to include logos for companies or

organizations in the plates you make.

portions, cut a scanned 3D object with MDX-20/15 or save data

in any of four file formats, including DXF and STL.

3D Engrave Windows

This adds thickness to a flat (2D) graphic to create a relief (raised

engraving).

You can also add thickness to images such as illustrations.

Setting up for Modeling

¥ Attach the Spindle Unit.

There are two locations (heights) for attaching the spindle unit.

Choose the correct location according to the blade length of the tool used for cutting and the thickness of the

material.

7 Service Activities

Setting up for Modeling

¥ Set the Z Origin Point

¥ Perform Surfacing

Surfacing is used to eliminate unevenness in the surface of the workpiece.

When performing surfacing, set the depth-direction reference point to the highest location on the workpiece.

At the MODELA Player [Options] menu, click [Layout ...].

The slanted-line area is the surfacing range.

Click [Start] to begin surfacing. When surfac-ing finishes, the plane that has been surfacedis set to the depth-direction reference point.

To change the surfacing range, deselect this.You can change the size by dragging the solidsquares around the slanted-line area. You canalso change the size by entering values in the[Width] and [Length] text boxes.

Enter the surfacing depth.This sets the depth from the depth referencepoint.

When surfacing ends, click [OK].

¥ Perform Modeling
