According to the vendor, the printer is capable of creating Fiberglass-reinforced parts that are claimed to be 10 times stronger than ABS. The printer is marketed as suitable for companies of all sizes, ranging from small businesses to large enterprises. The Onyx Pro is said to be widely used in various professions and industries including product development, aerospace, automotive, industrial equipment, as well as education and research.

Key Features

Unibody Aluminum Chassis: The Markforged Onyx Pro features a unibody aluminum chassis, which, according to the vendor, provides stability during printing and helps maintain the precision of the printed parts.

Precision-machined Components: The Onyx Pro is built with precision-machined components, which, according to the vendor, contribute to high-quality and reliable performance, ensuring accuracy and consistency of the 3D printed parts.

Continuous Fiber Reinforcement (CFR): The Onyx Pro utilizes Continuous Fiber Reinforcement (CFR) technology, as claimed by the vendor, to create parts that are 10 times stronger than ABS. This is achieved by reinforcing the printed parts with continuous fiberglass, resulting in enhanced strength and durability.

Near Flawless Surface Finish: The Onyx Pro is capable of producing parts with a near flawless surface finish, thanks to the use of Onyx, a micro carbon fiber filled nylon material. According to the vendor, this surface quality makes it suitable for a wide range of applications.

Closed Cell Infill: The Onyx Pro employs a closed cell infill structure for internal part geometry, which, according to the vendor, ensures optimal strength and rigidity. This makes the printed parts suitable for functional applications.

Wide Range of Materials: The Onyx Pro is compatible with various materials including Onyx, fiberglass, smooth TPU 95A, and precise PLA. According to the vendor, this wide range of materials allows users to choose the most suitable material for their specific application requirements.

Browser-based Software: Markforged provides browser-based software for designing and preparing parts for printing with the Onyx Pro. According to the vendor, this software allows users to easily slice and reinforce the parts with continuous fiberglass, simplifying the printing process.

Generous Build Volume: The Onyx Pro offers a spacious build volume of 320mm (width) x 132mm (depth) x 154mm (height), providing flexibility and versatility in printing various types of parts, according to the vendor.

Z Layer Resolution: The Onyx Pro offers a Z layer resolution range of 100 μm - 200 μm, allowing users to achieve fine detail and accuracy in their printed parts, as claimed by the vendor.

Composite Base Filaments: The Onyx Pro supports the use of composite base filaments, which can be reinforced with continuous fibers for added strength and durability. This, according to the vendor, opens up possibilities for various applications.
