Mark Forged X & Mark 2 FDM
The Highest in Strength and Quality
Markforged printers are designed to produce high strength & high quality Fusion Deposition Modeling (FDM) 3D prints. The material Markforged designed, ONYX, is a Nylon 6 filament with chopped carbon fiber in it. This base material can be interwoven with continuous strands of fiber for very robust end-use parts. These materials are great for end-use shop floor environments, and when designed properly can replace aluminum parts.
Resolution Chart
The resolution chart below shows the range of groove depth this material will produce. The larger the spike, the more significant and deeper the groove. The chart runs from very fine (left) to very large peaks/valleys (right).
