COMPOSITE PRODUCTION
Fiber™
Industrial-grade composites, featuring continuous carbon fiber and fiberglass tape for unrivaled part strength.
Offering users exceptional part quality and a wide range of aerospace and industrial-grade materials—all on a user-friendly, desktop printer.
Fiber™ is the only composite 3D printer to use Micro Automated Fiber Placement (μAFP™)—unlocking exceptional composite part strength for a desktop printer. Featuring closed loop heat control, the μAFP™ head constructs a high-density, continuous fiber reinforcement while the FFF printhead enables a high-resolution exterior shell.
