Strong Parts

Every Markforged industrial 3D printer is built to create strong parts. Period.

Designed for Reliability

Precision design and construction yields predictable, repeatable results.

Platform Connected

Monitored and controlled by a central platform — fabricating functional parts is as easy as pressing print.

1. Design & Slice

Design a part in your chosen CAD platform and export it as an STL. Upload the STL to Eiger and select your material and orientation. The software slices your part, automatically generating a raft, supports where necessary, and a layer of release material between the raft/supports and the part itself.

About Our Software

2. Print

Metal powder bound in plastic is printed a layer at a time into the shape of your part. Parts are scaled up to compensate for shrinkage during the sintering process.

Available Materials

3. Wash

After printing, “green” parts are placed into the Wash-1, which uses a debinding fluid to dissolve most of the plastic binding material.

1. Design & Slice

Using the CAD platform of your choice, design a part. Many different parts can be printed, but following Design for Additive Manufacturing (DFAM) guidelines enables you to fully leverage the unique strength and flexibility of Markforged composite printers. Upload the STL to Eiger and select your base materials and part orientation.

About Our Software

2. Reinforce

Unique to Markforged composite printers with Continuous Fiber Reinforcement (CFR), Eiger enables you to print with two types of printing media: a Composite Base filament and a Continuous Fiber. Configure the reinforcement to your application, choosing a Continuous Fiber and layers to reinforce.

Available Materials

3. Print

A Markforged composite printer automatically prints your part layer by layer. Composite Base material is printed through one nozzle, and Continuous Fiber is laid in-layer by a second nozzle and extrusion system.

Discover the X7

4. Use

The resulting composite part consists of a Composite Base and a Continuous Fiber, and can be used in a wide variety of industrial applications.

System Details

Metal X Printer

The Markforged Metal X is a new kind of metal printer. By printing metal powder bound in a plastic matrix, Markforged has eliminated many of the safety risks associated with traditional metal 3D printers. That means no loose powder, no lasers, and none of the traditional safety precautions. It’s safe to use in a shop environment with minimal facility upgrades.

In practice, the Metal X is essentially a very advanced FFF 3D printer. Featuring a precision machined gantry, a heated chamber and print bed, and advanced extrusion hardware, the Metal X is equipped to reliably print you durable parts. It is intentionally designed, with wear components and consumables — including print sheets, nozzles, and brushes — accessible and trivial to swap.

Wash-1

The Wash-1 is a solvent-based debinding system. It primarily uses Opteon SF-79, a high-performance fluid designed to offer superior cleaning power, higher efficiency, and safety in an environmentally sustainable way — Opteon SF-80 or Tergo Metal Cleaning Fluid can be substituted if needed.

The Wash-1 operates with simple ventilation and features an extremely simple user experience. It’s been tested and verified as a shop-safe system.

Sinter-2 and Sinter-1

The Markforged Sinter-2 and Sinter-1 are highly optimized tube furnaces used for sintering 3D printed metal parts. They provide leading edge sintering reliability and run times and are equipped with advanced safety features. The Sinter-2 is more advanced than the Sinter-1 — featuring a larger working volume, more precise temperature control, and a mechanical door interlock.

The Sinter-1 and Sinter-2 typically have run times between 26 and 31 hours. However, the Sinter-2 can process small parts in express mode, where it can sinter up to 250g of parts in just 17 hours.

Classification of 3D printers / Sudo Null IT News

3D printing is steadily gaining momentum and we are increasingly seeing posts that a 3D printer has been taught to print parts for the ISS, organs, houses and much more. Foreign technology publications are beginning to say that 3D printing is able to resurrect the industry in the states, and the shapeways service, before our eyes, is showing interesting growth rates, albeit far from industrial ones. With such an abundance of laudatory texts about the impending revolution in production, the thought comes to mind that the Russian segment is practically free, but is it so easy to achieve industrial scale with the assurance of the printers themselves and the emergence of open source projects? It's up to you to decide, but food for thought on the topic under the cut.

I’ll make a reservation right away that the standards in the industry are very conditional, so far. But a brief overview with the order of prices can be generated now. And so, let's get started.

Consumer

A type of printer intended primarily for personal use. Supplied in the form of a designer, or assembled. The vast majority of printer models of this type are derived from the open source RepRap project. Since they have basically the same platform, their characteristics are also very similar.
Designed with an eye on the average user and equipped with a fairly simple and intuitive interface. Printed, as a rule, ABS and PLA plastic. Complex and high-precision objects will be quite problematic to print, but they print ordinary crafts with ease, albeit for a long time.

Price range: $500 - $3500

Target audience:
Designers / artists / inventors who work from home.

Personal

An edge class of printers that is home but also the lower rung of industrial business printers. These devices have much in common with their consumer-grade brothers, but have the higher quality and precision of printing that is inherent in professional 3D printing systems. The appearance of such printers is rather a reaction of large manufacturers to the growing market for home systems. Given the low accuracy of the consumer class, vendors have offered reduced models of professional systems with performance close to them.
Operating printers of this class is just as simple and boils down to loading an image and pressing the start button. At the same time, this limits the possibilities in terms of various advanced printing options.
Suitable for use in offices, however, the noise and high temperature conditions of some models require their placement at some distance from the working area. The ease of cleaning output objects was not carried over to this class from industrial models, so it would be logical to place them in a separate workspace.

Price range: $7,000 - $40,000

Target audience:

Small business with a small budget but need to use 3D printing occasionally. It can be engineering companies, design studios, marketing agencies.

Professional

Systems in this class no longer look compact, but rather look like large refrigerators. This is the basis of 3D printing technology, which includes all the achievements and possibilities available to the industry. The purpose of professional systems can be very different, from prototyping to full-scale production, which in turn makes them an excellent option for both large businesses and high-tech companies with a small staff. ShapeWays, by the way, uses printers of this class.
Unlike their small brothers, these printers, due to the large number of modes and additional options, already require certain skills to work with them, so you cannot do without an operator.
In terms of the workspace, everything is not so simple here either. They are very large and noisy, so they require a separate room with good ventilation. Space requirements vary, but the space should be something like a laboratory and have a high-voltage line connected.
As a result, we get a universal 3D printing machine that provides the highest print quality and increased product sizes compared to the lower grades. ShapeWays, for example, collects several objects per print cycle, placing them at some distance from each other, which ultimately has a positive effect on the speed of order processing.

Price range: $30,000 - $750,000

Target audience:

Companies that have a constant need for prototyping, modeling, manufacturing of various kinds of objects with high quality and accuracy.

Production

The name of the class speaks for itself. These machines combine the precision and quality of professional printers, large print area, high level of automation and process control. On them, as well as on professional installations, it is possible to print not only prototypes, but also the final consumer product.
Systems of this kind are not intended for ordinary users, and the amounts that will have to be invested in such production will make you logically want to hire an experienced operator who will make the whole mechanism work 24 hours a day without downtime.
Small spaces are no longer enough. Here you need to clearly plan the future line and take care of the supply of the high-voltage line and gas pipe.
The result is a high-tech production that can quickly change the profile and use materials from ABS plastic to titanium.

Price range: $300,000 - $1,000,000

Target audience:

Companies with a need to produce high-precision large-sized products, or companies with a need to produce a large number of smaller volume items with high accuracy and high level quality.

Summing up, I would like to add that despite the fact that the threshold for entering this industry is still very high, the future belongs to such systems. Within the event horizon, we will be able to see a real revolution, at least in high-tech manufacturing. General Electric was one of the first to realize this and has already begun to produce complex titanium parts for aircraft engines using 3D printers.

As Albert Einstein said:
It's very simple. All people think that this is impossible. But there is one daredevil who does not agree with this ...
