Reinforcing 3D-printed parts with continuous fibers — such as fiberglass or carbon fiber — is a valuable manufacturing capability. It allows users to easily print parts that are much stiffer and stronger than parts made from only plastic. When adding fiber to a part, users have a few decisions to make: the type of fiber fill (concentric or isotropic), how much fiber to use, and where in the part to put the fiber.
Markforged is bringing industrial production to the point of need. We’ve spent the last decade building an additive manufacturing platform that brings real value to factory floors.
The aerospace industry has long been at the forefront of technological innovation, continually pushing the boundaries of what's possible in terms of engineering and design. 3D printing is the most transformative technological advancements in recent years in the aerospace industry.
Since announcing plans to acquire Teton Simulation Software in April 2022, Markforged has been working to integrate Teton’s SmartSlice technology into our familiar Eiger workflow. Now it’s here: offered as a free trial.
Pull up any major news outlet and you’ll surely see it: supply chain disruptions are still ongoing on a global scale. For manufacturers all over the world, supply chain issues present a major threat to productivity and their ability to meet critical business deadlines.
I’m excited to introduce our newest material to the Markforged platform and to the rest of the manufacturing world — Smooth TPU 95A! This material brings an entirely new set of functional properties to the Digital Forge and adds a substantial amount of versatility to what’s possible with Markforged 3D printers.
One of the questions we receive often here at EXBuild is whether the strength and surface finish of 3D printed parts has reached the point that it can be used for end-use, production parts. Well the truth is smooth, production parts have been coming off of 3D printers for years now, you just have to make sure you are using the right technology.
Hangar One Avionics is a San Diego-based avionics, maintenance, repair and installation services provider with customers in airborne law enforcement, business aviation, and general aviation.
Metal 3D printing technologies — like metal fused filament fabrication (metal FFF) — presents a breakthrough way to make functional metal parts accessible for businesses of all sizes. Metal FFF and composite FFF share many key process advantages over conventional manufacturing.
