Addressing the needs of those in the advanced manufacturing space, Obsidian is developing an industrial 3D printer having the capacity to fabricate precise production-grade parts: offering the design freedom of true 3D printing: materials and geometries but but employing standard stock materialsâinexpensive and certified. Relevant across a range of product applications and markets , the firm's approach addresses the problem of
th eneed for precise parts with specific geometrical, metallurgical, structural, thermal, and mechanical properties not do-able with conventional manufacturing and where additive manufacturing may be imprecise and inconsistent. The Obsidian system offers precise output with a mirror-like surface; properties on a par with forged materials: density, strength, ductility, electrical and thermal conductivity at a significanly lower cost than legacy metallic 3D printing
