Kevlar® Fibre
What is Kevlar® fibre?
Kevlar® is a tough, lightweight material that can bend further than any other fibre, making it ideal for 3D printing.
When should I 3D print with Kevlar® fibre?
Kevlar® is best used in parts that need to be able to withstand blows. Its low density and high durability make it a great option for applications that require a lot of movement or are associated with production parts.

Reducing changeover time and increasing plant throughput with Markforged technology
There are now 53 unique printed parts on the pad handling machine, including fuse covers, end effector laser sensor brackets, mechanical covers, stop dampers, motor brackets and more.
“People were blown away by the overall quality; they never thought they’d see printed parts being put on machinery that’s actually going to be used in a production manufacturing environment.”
