Metal Wax Composite Filament

Properties

• Properties match those of the given metal after being printed, processed, and sintered properly

Description

This is a composite filament that contains metal and, after printing, the base material (a wax in the case of the Markforged Metal X system) is washed away, leaving behind the solid metal part. This is then sintered in an oven filled with inert gas, which shrinks and stabilizes the part.
