COMPUTER AIDED MODELING MACHINE

Experience for yourself the physical reality of the 3D images
you create.
The PNC-300 can make this dream come true.

MODEL PNC-300
The CAMM-3 Model PNC-300 is a radical new 3D Computer Aided Modeling Machine that gives
physical form to 3D data that up to now could only be viewed by screen or printout without
cast investments. The PNC-300 offers outstanding spec's, functions, operability, and
high-precision machining performance, delivering output quality that is guaranteed to
satisfy. The PNC-300 achieves an affordable low price that makes it a great choice for use
in a wide range of applications.
From Screen to Hand - 3D Designs That You Can Shape, See, Touch, and
Experience
Have you ever wanted to give the 3D data you create a form that you can see, touch, and
experience? Roland's new CAMM-3 Model PNC-300 can do this for you. The PNC-300 takes data
you create with 3D software and gives it physical form, right on the spot. Conventional
machines for three-dimensional modeling are extremely expensive, making it difficult to
find an easy method to make actual models of 3D designs. Users who find it hard to access
such machines have been forced to visualize three-dimensional images from their on-screen
representations, with no method available to make actual confirmation. The PNC-300 can
give shape to three-dimensional data quickly and easily, achieving sophisticated
functioning at an unheared-of price. Now, it is possible to make confirmation model of
designs directly and accurately.
High-precision Machining
The PNC-300 is the world's first low-cost 3D modeling solution. In a complete departure
from conventional 3D modeling, the PNC-300 is based on the radical new concept of giving
shape to data on the spot for immediate verification. What is more, the PNC-300 offers
high-precision machining performance - now it's easy to access sophisticated
three-dimensional modeling with maximum operation speeds of 3.6 meter/minute for the X and
Y axes and 1.8 meter/minute for the Z axis, software resolution of 0.01 mm/step, and
mechanical resolution of 0.00125 mm/step. And in addition to modeling, the PNC-300 can do
engraving as well.
Safe and Clean
The PNC-300 is not just convenient. It's been designed to ensure safety in every way. The
cover that makes the cutting mechanism inaccessible during operation simultaneously helps
to keep swarf and dust produced during the machining operation from entering the
surrounding environment. This makes it possible to operate the PNC-300 in an office
environment. The PNC-300 is also designed for low-noise operation that won't intrude on
creativity and concentration. And because its compact design can ensure space-saving
installation, the PNC-300 is sure to enjoy use in a wide range of situations, including
schools, offices, in R & D facilities as well as manufacturing facilities.
Supports a Wide Variety of Materials
Modeling can be accomplished with materials such as modeling wax, chemical wood, modeling
foam, many types of resins, and soft non-ferrous metals like aluminium and brass. Because
the material can be chosen to meet the need, the PNC-300 gives the user accessible a
verification modeling matched to any of a wide range of purposes.
High-efficiency Modeling That Faithfully Reproduces the Image
The attractiveness of arcs and curved surface is where the true value of a modeling
machine is a really put to the test. The PNC-300 is equipped with a smoothing function
that provides smooth control of movement in the X-Y plane, allowing cutting to be carried
out quickly as well as smoothly. Other features include an optional 1Mbyte memory buffer.
When this is installed, it is possible to make use of the repeat function, whereby a job
sent to the PNC-300 can be machined repeatedly without re-sending the data from the host
computer - just one of the ways the PNC-300 strives for high-efficiency machining
operations as it does in every way.
