Average runtimes in your production
👉 Do the average runtimes roughly correspond to those in your production?
The Fraunhofer Institute has published a study that shows the average annual operating times of machines in the toolmaking sector.
The classic CNC machine is used for approximately 2,835 hours per year.
The leader in the study is wire erosion with 3,547 hours per year.
Since additive manufacturing was not taken into account in the study, we looked directly at our machines.
The average runtime of the Markforged X-Series 3D printers worldwide is >4,500 hours per year, making it the undisputed leader among the other manufacturing machines listed.
The Markforged Mark Two 3D printer pictured is 4.5 years old and has already run 7,210 hours per year. Even on weekends, it runs without issues.
The customer has understood the added value of the technology and the printed components can be found in all systems and equipment.
👉 Do you already have a long-running 3D printer like the Mark Two in use in your production?
