<p><b> by Jeff Donlan</b></p>Markforged, a 3D-printer manufacturer, has just released a printer that makes metal products. The Metal X</a> uses metal powder, then surrounds the created product with plastic. The plastic dissolves and the user is left with a metal object. Markforged uses the same technology for its carbon fiber printer. Metal X can print a variety of metals, including steel, aluminum, and titanium. This design is much smaller than most metal 3D-printers, which can take up an entire room. The Metal X can be used to produce parts for automotive, medical, and other industries. </p><br /> <p>The post 3D-Printing With Metal Just Got Easier</a> appeared first on Vocativ</a>.</p>
