We offer 3D design and printing – a process built around bespoke design and engineering, operating two Markforged Onyx Pro printers and one Markforged Mark Two. Aided by our powerful CAD CAM capabilities, Cranford Engineering can realise your dream from just a 2D diagram and turn it into a 3D model.

What is 3D printing?

3D printing is the construction of a three-dimentional object from a CAD model or a digital 3D model.  It can be done in a variety of processes in which material is deposited, joined or solidified under computer control with the material being added together layer by layer.

Our printers

The Onyx Pro is an advanced professional 3D printer – built around the Continuous Fiber Reinforcement (CFR) process to reliably produce strong parts for you.

The Mark Two is an award winning professional carbon fiber composite 3D printer – built around the Continuous Fiber Reinforcement (CFR) process to reliably produce strong parts for you. A hardened extrusion system enables the Mark Two to print Onyx — a micro carbon fiber filled nylon filament that destroys traditional extrusion systems — reliably over thousands of print hours. Markforged composite printers are capable of printing continuous fiber reinforced parts, which can be as strong as machined aluminium.
