associated with traditional metal 3D printing, while enabling new
features like closed-cell infill for reduced part weight and cost.
“Our passion is sharing advanced technologies with businesses to
decrease costs and create new opportunities for growth,” says STAX3D
CEO, Jason Yocum. “This is an exciting time for innovators in the
Southwest US, and we’re proud to be guiding the conversation around
additive manufacturing.”
The Metal X employs Markforged’s Atomic Diffusion Additive Manufacturing
(ADAM) process which requires parts to be sintered in a furnace after
printing. The Metal X printer boasts a fully enclosed build chamber,
ultra-quiet motion system and environmentally controlled material
storage, making it perfect for the office or the factory floor.
Currently, aluminum, tool steel, and titanium are printing materials
being used in beta.
Greg Mark, founder and CEO of Markforged, comments, “Markforged systems,
such as the Metal X, are changing the way businesses produce strong
parts while dramatically impacting the delivery times, cost and supply
chain logistics.”
STAX3D doesn’t just deliver 3D printers to businesses, they offer
on-site training, accessories and service support for businesses as
well. Technical experts at STAX3D host an unboxing day for each business
that orders 3D printers. In the case of the Metal X, this day turns into
a full week of installation, training, and empowerment. During the
knowledge transfer, the STAX3D experts train business teams to master
the metal 3D printer which uses cloud-based printer management software
and a built-in touchscreen interface.
As the premier distributor of Metal X printers in the Southwest US,
STAX3D invites businesses and the community to see the metal 3D printer
in action at their headquarters in Gilbert, AZ or online at stax3d.com.
