Markforged X7
The X7 3D prints continuous carbon fiber-reinforced parts in hours that can be as strong as machined aluminum. If you need to produce parts with excellent strength, flame resistance, chemical resistance, and energy absorbance, the X7 can fabricate functional parts for you.
The larger build volume, precision-built hardware, and laser-assisted leveling calibration of the X7 make it ideal for printing large functional end-use parts. Parts have an unmatched dimensional accuracy, surface finish, high strength, and temperature resistance.
Markforged is the first company to offer 3D printers capable of reinforcing parts with continuous fibers, enabling composite parts robust enough to replace machined metal. Fiber materials, such as fiberglass and carbon, are used to enhance the strength of plastic parts. Fiber reinforced plastics can be as strong as some metals, but they are much lighter.
Strong performing parts right off your machine
Markforged FX10
Markforged designed FX10 to deliver strong, accurate parts on every print — on an automated, factory-friendly platform that raises the bar for usability. FX10 prints continuous carbon fiber reinforced parts for a wide range of factory floor applications — helping manufacturers increase speed to market, slash fabrication and inventory costs, and de-risk line down events.
What Is Industrial 3D Printing?
Industrial 3D printing is the use of 3D printing technologies in a production environment to produce finished components. These additive manufacturing solutions lay down layers of high-grade plastics or carbon fiber to build complete components to tight tolerances. Depending on the raw materials, the tensile strength of finished components can exceed that of structural steel and aluminum. Industrial printers can print larger parts and have a high throughput. The 3D printing process is suitable for continuous production runs in industrial applications.

Benefits of Industrial 3D Printing
- Less waste: 3D printing produces minimal waste compared to traditional manufacturing processes.
- No tooling costs: The parts are manufactured without tooling, potentially saving thousands of dollars in development and prototyping costs.
- Diverse printing materials: Multiple choices of printing filaments are available, from cheap plastics up to high-tech carbon fiber and even sintered metal components.
- Production costs: For short to medium production runs, 3D printing is often more affordable than injection molding and CNC machining processes.
- Improved manufacturing: 3D printing allows for specialists to support their manufacturing efforts by creating tooling and fixtures, adding further efficiency and benefit for everyone involved.
- Rapid prototyping: It's key to rapid prototyping used to quickly make function models and mockups of engineering designs
Bigger prints, high-quality surface finish
Markforged industrial-grade printers produce high-resolution and precise surface finishes for end-use parts. With a 50-micron resolution layer, your parts will resemble the look and feel of injection molding and come out of the printer ready to use.
