Customer Success Stories
Across a variety of industries including automotive, aerospace, robotics, and consumer electronics in tooling and mould making; Markforged technology is already being used by leading companies worldwide to explore innovation faster and at lower cost.
The advantages of 3D printing in detail
Electronic industry
FESTO relies on 3D printing with Markforged for their electronics component manufacturing’
Production Tooling
Zero Tolerance reduce cycle times with 3D Printed tooling
Spare Parts
Serial spare parts production with industrial 3D printing at mayer-technology GmbH & Co. KG
Robot Gripper
Additively manufactured robotic grippers save BEULCO £200,000 in 1.5 years.
Reverse Engineering
DAVOSCAN uses five Markforged 3D printers and can rest assured that no matter which 3D printer they use, the result will always be the same.
Resources
The challenge with 66 different saw blades is to make production as productive as possible despite the high variety.
Aviation
VOCUS uses the self-extinguishing and flame-retardant Onyx FR as the material for the battery packs.
Exploration Robots
The robustness of the printers, the reliability and repeatability of parts produced, and the fact that the Digital Forge creates beautiful, functional parts that do not require any post-processing makes Markforged an ideal additive manufacturing technology.
Prototypes
Guhring UK is printing a second metal prototype and can use it for initial cutting trials, which is a major competitive advantage.
Automation
The requirements for printed components for robotics are stability and, at the same time, the lowest possible weight.
Automation
The aim of erler GmbH was to bring the added value in-house in order to obtain more flexibility, independence and economic efficiency.
Medical parts
A new product launch turns in to so much more – Compensation of supply chain delay and faster and cheaper production preparation.
Tool production
The aim is to better serve existing markets and open up new markets.
Hydraulic Post Driver
Stanley Black & Decker has replaced a four-part assembly with a single, ready-to-use component. The cost and time savings are huge.
The Additive Movement has Arrived
100+ Industrial Use Cases for Today’s Modern Manufacturer
Lifting tool
Wärtsilä manufactures the world’s first 3D-printed CE-certified hoist and can lift a whole 960 kg (with safety factor 4)!
Functional Prototypes
BAM GmbH offers a wide range of products for the manufacture of metal and plastic components of the highest quality and with the narrowest tolerances for numerous industries.
Production parts
3D printing in production is a reality for Clenaware Systems – end use parts parts on-demand from the 3D printer. Reduce lead times.
Tooling
How Cashco increased production rates while keeping its toolmakers happy.
Individual parts
Cirnapro designs metal and plastic parts for the mechanical engineering industry in lot sizes 1-200. 3D printing allows complicated functions to be integrated into a single component.
Gears
3D printing in plant construction from prototype to series production. Development and production of a novel blasting technology for homogeneous and reproducible surfaces.
Fixtures
Individual fixtures for a laser welding system used to be made of aluminium and were very heavy and expensive to produce.
Automotive parts
RPG Industries, Inc. needed a new carburettor cover for a classic car, but it was no longer available anywhere in the world! A conventional production was simply too expensive.
Special machine construction
The main focus is on special machines, which is why almost no component occurs twice.
Circular saw housing
Siemens Gas & Energy is printing a custom onyx circular saw housing with integrated parts such as the engine and shovel to repair gas turbines.
Spare Parts
Learn how DUNLOP has achieved a very fast ROI and why they believe that technology will play an important role.
Chain links
Agricultural machinery manufacturer CLAAS prints chain links made of nylon and glass fibre for transporting combine harvesters weighing over 17 tonnes.
Sanitary valves
Speed plays a particularly important role in the development phase of a new valve.
Nozzle holder
Siemens Gas & Energy prints customized onyx devices to keep custom injectors during post-processing.
Laboratory Equipment
Utilizing Inconel 625 for Rapid and Repeated Temperature Cycling
Tooling
Reducing changeover time and increasing plant throughput with Markforged technology
Surgical Instruments
Fusing Metal and Carbon fiber printing to create prototype tools for surgical use
Prototypes
Kessler Plastics GmbH is a specialist in injection moulding technology and contract manufacturing and sees itself as a complete supplier in this field for its customers.
