Markforged makes industrial 3D printers that can print metal and carbon fiber parts. Its products combine hardware (the printers and systems) with software that guides printing and improves results, including Eiger, a cloud-based platform, and Blacksmith AI for adaptive manufacturing. This helps customers design and produce strong, functional parts faster and at a lower cost than traditional manufacturing. Markforged differs from many competitors by offering a complete end-to-end solution that integrates hardware, software, and specialized printing materials (like metal and high-strength composites) for industrial use. The company serves sectors such as aerospace, automotive, healthcare, and general industry, aiming to streamline production and reduce lead times through scalable manufacturing.
