Mark One users??

The Mark One requires a minimum solid area of 1 square inch to place fiber. The area has to be continous (in most cases holes are not allowed to place fiber). Note as well the fiber is a continous strand for each layer (no fiber cuttings are allowed at one layer). This is limiting for many more complex geometries. Also there is a minimum width required to place at least one fiber ring, from my estimation it requires at least a 3mm thick wall. You have to take all that in consideration for designing your part.

I still belive it is a great innovative product that will be improved in the close future by the research team. I have to say they have been very responsive to my support requests. My problems were solved in around 24 to 48 hs.

Good luck!

Why the one square inch rule? Is there some hard limit on either the material or the extrusion mechanism that makes it impossible or problematic to lay fiber in smaller areas?
