The iModela is Roland's NEW, affordable, easy to use desktop device that precisely mills 3D shapes, patterns and designs out of wax, foam, wood and plastic commonly used in the craft, jewellery and hobby markets.
With a working area of 86mm x 55mm x 26mm and easy to use USB connectivity, the Roland iModela incorporates 25 years of Roland's proven professional milling technology into an easy to use device. The iCreate software allows you to create and mill shapes, holes and patterns with precision straight out of the box.

iModela Creator Design Software
With the iModela Creator design software included, the iModela is a complete system for producing a wide range of items, from charms, pendants and key chains to small figurines and accessories.
iModela Creator allows users to create and mill shapes, holes and patterns with precision straight from the box. Free-hand drawing tools are available so users can sketch out more complex ideas. With iModela Creator, users can either download a file or create original 2D designs. Intuitive menus and icons make design and production easy, even for novice users, and with the freely downloadable Modela player 4, 3D models can be created in a few simple steps.
