The conventional compass will perforate the drawing paper by the needlepoint. It's a needless tool with a detachable magnetic base. Three extendable rulers allow infinite over 120 different sizes of geometric shape drawing capabilities, radius from 10mm–475mm (fits A0 size paper). Users can draw triangles, pentagons, hexagons, golden spirals, golden ratio etc. Checked design markings for the Imperial system(inches) which is accurate and error-free drawings. A rolling measurement ruler supports different surfaces, a circumference of 20cm with measurements to the millimeter. It's CNC machine-made, laser-marked and made with aerospace aluminium.

針對當前圓規工具都帶有針，容易毀壞紙張，沒有精確刻度，可繪製形狀、尺寸單一等問題。Exlicon MX是一款多功能繪圖圓規,由圓底、長尺及水滴形磁性尺組成。首先，採用可重複使用的納米貼紙黏貼在底座上，圓盤吸著畫紙同時，解決了紙張穿孔的問題，更具備了作圖時的高穩定性，在繪製多種形狀時都可以做到不移動。同時，尺子及圓盤具有磁性，可以互相吸著，尺子也可互相連接安裝，形成對半徑的疊加，可以叠加三根尺子，所畫的幾何圖形可以覆蓋A0大小的紙張。用家可以依據圓規上面的特別標記，繪製三角形，五角星，六邊形，黃金螺旋等多種形狀、可以畫多於120個不同同大小的圖案或有黃金比例的圖形。尺子上的洞可以讓手工刀穿過，用作切割圓形而不穿紙。圓規上增加了角度的標註，以及公制和英制兩種單位的刻度。 Exlicon MX還可以測量曲面的周長。圓規沿著曲線滾過，可以依據走過面或線測算曲線的周長（周長20厘米）。尺子的尺寸刻度由激光刻上，用方塊設計的刻度而非刻度線標註，避免了刻度線寬度造成的測量誤差，測量數據可以精確到毫米。採用航空鋁材，有助提高耐用性和生命週期。產品的體積小。零件可拆及易安裝，方便攜帶。
