Toolkit for Carbon Fiber 3D Printing
Posted by John Marello on
Start your journey into carbon fiber 3D printing with this 3-step interactive toolkit from MakerBot. From the Carbon Fiber Applications Guide to a hands-on demonstration—start 3D printing strong, lightweight Carbon Fiber parts on-demand. Carbon fiber is one of the most interesting materials for engineers with a nearly unmatched strength-to-weight ratio, and a heat deflection that is superior to many other materials. Unfortunately, carbon fiber has traditionally been just out of reach due to its high cost as a material and its complexity in manufacturing.Now, thanks to 3D printing, carbon fiber composites are more accessible than ever before and can be used for...
