SOME INFOMATION ABOUT THE MATERIAL
Onyx was created to be the perfect material for 3D printing. It is a fusion of engineering nylon and chopped carbon fibers, which gives it a high-quality surface finish. The chopped fibers within the Onyx material add stiffness to your 3D printed parts, providing micro-carbon reinforcement to make parts stiff, strong, and true to their dimensions.
Onyx is perfect for any application that requires strong, stiff, and dimensionally accurate parts. It is frequently used for functional prototypes, end-use parts, and low-volume production runs. Onyx is also great for applications that require wear resistance, such as gears, bearings, and bushings.
If you are looking for a material that can give you the strength of carbon fiber reinforced plastic without the high cost, Onyx is the perfect choice. With Onyx, you can have the best of both worlds: high strength and low cost.
With a high deflection temperature of 293º F (145º C), Onyx is the perfect material for strong parts that need to withstand high temp conditions.An enormously important component within the KAJA development processes is therefore the 3D-printer from Markforged. With the desktop version Onyx Pro von Markforged, glassfibre reinforced components can be printed within a very short time. Extremely stable and waterproof, these components can go directly into testing.
