Markforged is the future of manufacturing
according to New Zealand agent, Total CNC.
Liberating designers and engineers from the
long lead times and high costs of traditional
manufacturing, Markforged means that high
performance parts can be produced on site and in
under 24 hours. Not only that, carbon fibre parts
mean that the end result is lighter but as strong as
aluminium.
Formed from the combination of two materials,
composite parts are incredibly versatile.
“Our unique fabrication process enables you to
print parts that are an order of magnitude stiffer and
stronger than typical 3D printed objects.”
