Since the launch of Markforged in 2013, ENGINEERING.com has been following the startup’s development. The company’s continuous filament fabrication (CFF) process, which is capable of printing with carbon fiber reinforcement, seemed to suggest a turning point in additive manufacturing (AM), unlocking new materials, new capabilities and a new lower price point for 3D printing technology.
