DD&D has been 3D printing with Markforged printers since 2015. We are well-versed with their products, report data usage with their beta team for evaluation, and spent time with their customer service employees in the Markforged product booth at SOLIDWORKS Works 2017 talking to customers. We also are mechanical designers so you get the best of both worlds when you use DD&D for your printing needs. We are actually going to inquire about your part and ask questions related to the fit, form, and function. Thats a win-win for you! Have a part and need some edits to make it better…we can help you there too. Have an idea but it’s on a napkin sketch…we can model it in CAD and 3D print it. Turnkey…and even more win-win for you!

  • Hi guys, I just finished my model in SolidWorks but when I upload it to the website, the size is way off! I think it might have to do with the settings I used in exporting the file. I basically used these steps: File > Save As STL > Options Resolution > Fine Save I must be missing something but…

  • I was doing some initial testing to determine if it was possible to use the carbon fiber layers as a basic circuit. As you can see in the photo it works. Now If I can just upload gerber files into Eiger for specific layers maybe I can actually print imbedded circuits into my parts. I have requested …

  • No. Mark Two printers only use materials that are recommended by the manufacturer. If you will use other materials, this will at least take out the warranty and in the worst case will damage the printer.

  • Hi @Brandon_21 I’d echo @shahramrobotics in saying that you might want to look at 3D modellers rather than scanners. Scanners are great where you have a complex artistic/organic shape that would be difficult to model, but if you’re talking about mechanical parts of some kind, it’s likely they could …

  • In the upper right hand corner of the STL options page, you will find units. Make sure you select your desired units. Neat Tip, once you set this, all future exports will use the same settings. No need to go in and change the settings for each export. [3d_export.png]

  • Yes, you can save the assembly as .stl, and select the option: “All bodies” when asked what you want to do saving the stl

  • We bought a Markforged Mark One about a year ago for short run prototyping and have filled its downtime via 3D Hubs. As edsongebo mentioned, smaller parts aren’t really the forte of a Markforged unit, but it does a great job with larger stuff. We’ve done everything from work holding and fixturing to…

  • I own 3 Mark Forged prints, two mark 1 and a new Mark 2. I also own over 2 dozen FDM or SLA printers personally, so I feel I have a very firm grasp on various ranges of capabilities of 3D printers. The Mark Forged Mark 1 v2 (with the newer extruder ) are really in a class of their own. Looking at my…
