…has introduced Onyx ESD, a new composite material for additive manufacturing of electronics. The company, a builder of additive manufacturing equipment, says the new material is a high-performance static-dissipative version of its popular Onyx, a micro carbon fiber-filled nylon. Markforged says electronics manufacturers have not been able to innovate with additive manufacturing due to the lack of static-dissipation materials. Electronics manufacturers must use materials that meet electrostatic discharge (ESD) safety requirements, to avoid damaging a product or critical component during production. Though there are other ESD-safe materials in the market, Markforged’s is reportedly the only to offer the highest strength…
