When it comes to strong, lightweight, and production-ready 3D printed parts, 3D printer manufacturer Markforged offers one of the most in-demand technologies. Known for its ability to print continuous carbon fiber-reinforced nylon and carbon-fiber-infused composites, the company’s printers have become a go-to choice for engineers and manufacturers looking to replace aluminum tooling or produce high-strength, end-use components.
But what if you need parts made on a Markforged machine—without the cost and commitment of buying one?
The good news is: you don’t have to own a Markforged printer to benefit from its capabilities. A small but growing number of professional 3D printing services now offer access to Markforged technology, enabling customers to get parts made on demand in Onyx (nylon + chopped carbon fiber) or continuous carbon fiber-reinforced nylon—the same proprietary materials used by manufacturers worldwide.
These services are not just part-makers; they’re staffed by technicians who specialize in the Markforged ecosystem, understand material behavior, and know how to optimize print parameters for performance. Whether you’re building a factory jig, an automotive fixture, or a lightweight bracket, these providers can ensure consistent, functional, and dimensionally accurate results.
Moreover, many of these service bureaus offer design support, helping customers adapt or refine their models for fiber reinforcement. This includes consulting on fiber routing, wall thicknesses, and structural elements to fully leverage the strength potential of the material. This level of collaboration ensures that your part is not only printable but also performs under stress—exactly as intended.
The benefits of going this route are clear:
- No capital investment in hardware or software
- Access to experienced operators who know the quirks and strengths of the Markforged platform
- Fast turnaround on production-grade parts
- Flexible ordering, from one-off prototypes to repeat production runs
For manufacturers, R&D teams, and automotive engineers, outsourcing to a qualified Markforged-capable service provider is an efficient way to tap into industrial-grade 3D printing—without the overhead. It’s a smart solution for getting strong, lightweight, fiber-reinforced parts into your workflow fast.
Markforged-Equipped 3D Printing Services
These service providers have extensive experience with Markforged 3D printers and materials, ensuring that your parts meet your expectations. They can assist with design optimization, material selection, and production, making them excellent partners for manufacturing factory jigs, fixtures, automotive tools, and other high-strength components.
Craftcloud
Craftcloud is a 3D printing service that helps you find the best manufacturer to 3D print your parts and also handles the complete order for you. An instant comparison of the manufacturer’s offers makes it easy to get the best price, plus it has a Trustpilot rating of “excellent” from over 1,500 users.
As a technology agnostic platform you won’t find Markforged listed as a manufacturing technology explicitly, but the continuous-carbon-fiber (CFF) nylon and the continuous-basalt-fiber (CBF) nylon options are Markforged, Craftcloud has confirmed. If you’re looking to print with the Markforged carbon fiber reinforced nylon called Onyx, without the addition of continuous carbon fiber reinforcement, you can find Markforged Onyx listed in the material list dropdown menu under “composites.”
Craftcloud partners with more than 150 well-known manufacturers, such as Shapeways, Materialise, and Sculpteo, worldwide. You can also select to have your parts produced locally.
Unlike some other manufacturing networks, Craftcloud discloses the prices of each partner, and you choose the one that best fits your criteria. Still, Craftcloud takes care of the entire process from order to delivery to ensure your parts are printed and shipped to your satisfaction, all with no additional fees and no minimum order value.
If you need help designing a 3D model, take advantage of Craftcloud’s CADmore partner offer, which is on-demand design services.

FacFox
FacFox (also available through Craftcloud) is one of China’s most popular on-demand 3D print services, offering a broad selection of other manufacturing services, too. The company tailors its services to several industries, including architecture, medical, retail, and design.
A simple online interface lets you quickly upload models, which are then be checked for printability (and automatically repaired if not) before payment. There’s a $22 minimum order and live tracking of the print’s progress is a nice touch, and competitive international delivery often makes it a cost-effective alternative wherever you are. The low prices come at the cost of site usability, which is not all that intuitive to navigate. But if you know exactly what material you need and which technology, it should be a smooth, quick ordering process.
FacFox offers Markforged’s continuous carbon fiber technology (FDM-CCF).
Any-Shape
Any-Shape is a French 3D printing service that uses Markforged Mark Two composite 3D printers to produce strong and lightweight tooling and parts with fiber reinforcement.
