Production
Blacksmith for X7 establishes and streamlines the quality control process for additively manufactured parts. Get to market faster with confidence in your parts. By scanning parts while they print, the X7 is the only industrial-grade FFF (Fused filament fabrication) 3D printer with in-process part verification.
CFF
Continous Filament Fabrication
Design
Design your part and select from composite materials such as Carbon Fiber or Kevlar. Cloud-based software does the rest making printing the right part easy.
Reinforce
The dual material system crafts the composite part one layer at a time. The first nozzle builds the plastic matrix and the second winds the fiber throughout.
Part
As strong as aircraft grade aluminum and over 40% lighter, Markforged CFF parts are more than capable of replacing machined metal tools, fixtures and prototypes.

Materials
ONYX
Nylon mixed with chopped carbon fiber offers a high-strength thermoplastic
Designed to combine the toughness and durability of Nylon with the dimensional stability and strength of composites, Onyx is the world’s most capable 3D printing plastic.
ONYX ESD (Static-dissipative)
Stronger, stiffer, and ESD-resistant Onyx variant for industrial applications
Onyx ESD is a static-dissipative chopped carbon fiber nylon material, precision-engineered for a tight range of surface resistance. Onyx ESD meets ESD-safe requirements of the most stringent manufacturers while offering the same industry-leading print quality of Onyx. Onyx ESD is stronger and stiffer than Onyx, with the same near-perfect surface finish, making it suitable for advanced manufacturing applications from electronics assembly to industrial robotics and process automation.
Smooth TPU
Flexible material with flexibility and durability
Smooth TPU 95A is a rubber-like material that when used with Markforged composite printers offers product developers and manufacturers the ability to create flexible, impact-absorbent parts on demand.
NYLON WHITE
It’s now possible to print in Nylon and Onyx on the same printhead
Nylon White is an engineering thermoplastic that is non abrasive and can be stiffened with any of our continuous fiber options. It’s a versatile material both with and without reinforcing fibers.
Precise PLA
Affordable and colorful with the same industrial precision
Precise PLA is our easy-to-print plastic for precision concept modeling and validation. Based on the most common 3D printing prototyping material, Precise PLA 3D prints without warping and comes in a variety of colors. Best of all, it’s affordable. So you can use as much as you need to fine-tune your designs before implementation.
FIBERGLASS
Inexpensive and 11 times stiffer than ABS
Fiberglass reinforced Onyx composites are as strong as metal – 20x stiffer and stronger than typical 3D printed parts. Fiberglass is traditionally used in composites for boat, automobile, and aircraft manufacture.
CARBON FIBER
Markforged’s strongest fiber with the highest strength-to-weight ratio
Stronger than 6061 Aluminum and 40% lighter — Continuous Carbon Fiber parts stand up to the toughest applications. Because of its very high stiffness and strength it is widely used in the aerospace and automotive industries.
HSHT FIBERGLASS
Delivers the highest impact resistance and heat deflection temperature of Markforged’s continuous fibers
High Strength High Temperature (HSHT) Fiberglass provides superior heat resistance and a flexural strength that is second only to carbon fiber. HSHT fiberglass is ideal for applications requiring high heat and impact resistance or high elasticity.
KEVLAR
Tough, lightweight, and can bend further than any other fiber
Kevlar is best utilized in parts that will take a beating. Its low density and high durability make it a great option for applications involving a lot of motion or interfacing with production parts.
ONYX FR (Flame Retardant)
V-0 rated nylon filled with chopped carbon fiber designed for strong, lightweight, flame-retardant parts
Onyx FR should be used to print parts that need high-strength, low-weight, and flame-retardant properties. Such applications include: aerospace, automotive parts, and electronic housings.
CARBON FIBER FR (Flame Retardent)
The backbone of flight-ready 3D printed composites
Carbon Fiber FR is a flame-retardant variant of Markforged’s unique, ultra-high-strength Continuous Carbon Fiber — when used to reinforce a Composite Base material like Onyx FR, it can yield parts as strong as 6061-T6 Aluminum.
