Markforged Metal X Industrial Metal 3D Printer from China
The Markforged Metal X is an industrial metal 3D printer that uses bound metal deposition (BMD) technology. It extrudes metal powder bound in a polymer filament layer-by-layer, followed by sintering to produce metal parts. While it uses a hybrid process, its primary function of depositing metal material qualifies it under tariff item 8485.10.00.

Import Tips
• Clarify to CBSA that the bound metal deposition process is a form of metal deposit additive manufacturing, despite the polymer binder
• Ensure the sintering furnace, if imported separately, is classified under the appropriate tariff item
• Verify the machine's compliance with Canadian electrical and safety standards
