Deliver Parts Faster with Turbo Print for Mark Two and Onyx Pro

Your printer just got faster. Turbo Print is now available for Gen 2 Mark Two and Onyx Pro printers.
Mark Two and Onyx Pro Turbo Print is a 250 µm layer height print setting that prints parts up to 2x faster compared to parts printed at 200 µm. Best of all, 250 µm parts maintain the same surface finish quality as 200 µm parts.
Faster printing means quicker part production, increased printer throughput, and faster design iterations.

Some of the videos iv seen of this printer were making the same sounds and a cheap Ender 3, how is it that a printer that cost multiple thousands of dollars won’t put silent steper drivers. Is there something I’m missing? Was the video I saw a printer in need of maintenance? Or is there a reason for using the silent chips?

Hi, @senurasenaratne5782. Yes the stepper motors are the same of any other printer and they are noisy like any other printer. When I close the lid of the printer the noise is barely noticeable, however. The XY movement is way different from the Ender3 and more similar to the CoreXY frame by Core3D. No motor is moving alongside the printer head, reducing inertia therefore allowing for higher acceleration and more precise movement. I use a Onyx Pro Printer in the past 3 years and it is truly set or forget. Markforged printers are not for everyone, but if you have a shop with a lot of users with different levels of expertise in 3D printing with these printers you will have a consistent and very good printing quality. (This is by my personal experience)

@@jqielab767 true but a printer like the prusa xl (core xy) even without a enclosure is dead silent. im sure the markforged brand and the product is great but my point still stands. they used cheap drivers

@@senurasenaratne5782 I haven't really thought about the noise factor in 3D printers, but yours is a good point. Drivers have come so far these days with micro stepping, torque sensing etc... In my lab noise is not a big issue, since the air circulation system is the dominant source of noise, but if you place the printer in an office or a home having a silent printer is important.

What about onyx one?

Onyx One's will not have turbo print due to hardware limitations.
