AbstractContinuous fiber fabrication technology, developed by Markforged and used in MarkTwo printers, allows using of reinforcing fibers, which improve mechanical properties of produced parts. The technology enables choosing of two fiber deposition strategies: isotropic fiber fill and concentric fiber fill. With the isotropic fiber fill, there is an option to set up various fiber angles in each layer. The article is focused on stress distribution analysis using FEM in a matrix and individual
