3DXTech About to Launch New Carbon Fiber Composite 3D Printer Filaments

[Brian_Krassenstein]

Carbon Fiber has been gradually making its way into the 3D printing space. Now a company called 3DXTech is introducing a new line of filament called 3DXMax, meant for maximum strength. This line of filament includes carbon fiber PLA, ABS, and even Nylon filaments. The PLA and ABS are now available for presale, while the Carbon Fiber Nylon will be available in a few weeks. What potential do you think this material will have for 3D printing? Read and see more at: http://3dprint.com/26074/carbon-fiber-filament-3dxtech/

Let us know if you get an opportunity to used any of these new filaments when they are released, s well as how they performed and which printer was used.

OK. So do they have specs and test reviews ?

They'll have more strength in one direction, but that's the strong direction anyway. Strength across the vertical axis, as built, will still be extremely poor.
