"3D printing of pure copper using the Markforged Metal X system is faster and cheaper than buying complex machined parts." A german car manufacturer, which operates worldwide, prints customised welding electrodes for spot welding from pure copper! According to one of the company's maintenance managers, component costs were reduced by 50% and [...]
In our current video series we show you how you can integrate your Markforged 3D printer into your workflow most efficiently. With Onyx you can 3D print threads. Both internal and external threads can be produced with a perfect fit and without support material. This is already possible from a thread size of M8. For [...]
MarkForged Mechanical Features [MMF] is a series of blog posts detailing best practices for designing common traditional engineering parts and mechanical features for composite reinforced 3D printing with MarkForged printers Welcome to the first edition of Markforged Mechanical Features! We get questions from customers on a regular basis asking for help integrating the mechanical features [...]
Why does a manufacturer of subtractive cutting tools rely on metal 3D printing? 🤯 Is metal 3D printing a complement to CNC machining or a competition? This video dispels some prejudices and is a great insight into a cutting tool made with the Markforged Metal X system. Does the part withstand [...]
Metal 3D Printing Process in 3 Steps A detailed look at the entire metal 3D printing process from design to functional metal part. Metal 3D printing unlocks an entirely new world of manufacturing capabilities for both technology and business. It eliminates the need for tooling spend, which reduces the cost per [...]
To be honest... who on the production floor doesn't know it. How do you currently manufacture your operating equipment such as fixtures, workpiece holders, clamping elements and soft jaws? Operational resources economically out of the 3D printer? Equipment such as fixtures, workpiece holders, clamping elements and soft jaws are ideal components for composite fibre [...]
Our customer Cirnapro designs metal and plastic parts for the mechanical engineering industry in lot sizes 1-200 and has integrated a Markforged 3D printer into its manufacturing processes to complement its production. Especially the possibility to reinforce with carbon and glass fibre opens up a whole new production spectrum for the company! [...]
You don't see any potential for 3D printing in your company? Again and again I hear: "We have no potential for 3D printing. It's not interesting for us." BUT Is this really the case or are we trying to understand a new technology with old patterns of thought? Ask yourself the following questions: Where [...]
Markforged Mechanical Features Most 3D printing plastics are not strong enough to print threads. Their yield strength is significantly lower than that of metals. Even fibre reinforcements do not protect against high wear. Precision and high bonding strength can only be guaranteed by metal threads. We have already explained before how this problem [...]
