3 Steps to Start 3D Printing Carbon Fiber Parts

Carbon fiber is one of the most interesting materials for engineers with a nearly unmatched strength-to-weight ratio, and a heat deflection that is superior to many other materials. Unfortunately, carbon fiber has traditionally been just out of reach due to its high cost as a material and its complexity in manufacturing.

Now, thanks to 3D printing, carbon fiber composites are more accessible than ever before and can be used for everything from prototypes to end use parts.
