Very cool if it works but I'm not convinced by the video. I already know all the applications where this can be used, how strong carbon is, how easy this machine is and only fantasy sets the limit blaha etc. Show me something you've already created and how good that is instead of pretending to try to break a pencil sized object. Was the bike fork made in that machine or just a general example of carbon fiber? I couldnt find the speed of printing either.
- User8712 13y agoAgreed, they just keep showing this plastic rectangle, with a flat strip of carbon fiber sandwiched in the middle for reinforcement. Wonderful, but is that the limitations of this machine? https://markforged.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/MF14_MK1_brick_3qtr_combo1.jpg https://markforged.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/MF14_MK1_b... If you look closely at the above image and squint your eyes, I think that's a carbon fiber part it actually printed, that appeared in the video for a split second. It would be great if we could see it close up. It would be even better if they printed a second copy with plastic, and then demonstrated the difference in strength. Instead, they spent the entire video saying they're going to change the world, and then I guess you're suppose to take their word on it, and just drop $5k on the preorder.
- wheresclark 13y agoI agree, they seem to be very light on the meaty info. I would be very interested to see how they go with their demonstration in SF on Monday.
