Excited to launch DM Fiber today ️ Continuous carbon fiber AFP tapes. Twice as strong as steel at 1/5 the weight. 2500 MPa Tensile strength and 160GPa Modulus. Huge 20L print envelope. Finally a printer able to produce continuous composite reinforcement or preforms with less than 1% porosity and up to 60% fiber loading . The power of a multimillion dollar composite AFP system is now available in your desktop!
