3D Print Composite Parts as Strong as Aluminum

Manufacturers still have polarizing views on how 3D printing can transform business. Specifically, because there is a lack of confidence around strength of end-use parts. This webinar dives into which specific printers can achieve aluminum strength, Continuous Filament Fabrication, real world applications, and more.

3D Printing is no longer just a buzz-word. Over the years, additive manufacturing has taken the global markets by storm enabling manufacturers to gain supply chain control, reduce lead times, and save on scrap costs. Yet, many manufacturers still have polarizing views on how 3D printing can transform their business. Specifically, because there is a lack of confidence around strength of end-use parts.

With Markforged composite 3D printing systems, it’s now possible to match aluminum strength through the use of continuous fiber reinforcement. Watch Joe Luers, Applications Engineer at Hawk Ridge Systems, dig into:

  • Which specific printers can achieve aluminum strength
  • Continuous Filament Fabrication (CFF) and what it means
  • Optimizing designs for maximum part strength
  • Real world applications
