Multi Jet Fusion 3D Printing Technology
Multi Jet Fusion is a 3D printing technology that allows for more possibilities when it comes to complex, lower-cost parts. Ideal for both production of single parts or large prints consisting of multiple different parts. Multi Jet Fusion is an excellent technology for applications like thin walls, brackets, housings clips and guides. Industries can benefit from Multi Jet Fusion higher volume capabilities through limited run, pre-production and spare parts.
Production 3D Printing
Our Multi-Jet Fusion 3D printing services are perfect for batch production, serial production of complex parts, and legacy parts or components needed to be made on-demand
High Performance Parts
Parts that are printed with our HP 3D Printing Services are repeatable, isotropic, and have higher strength and accuracy when compared with laser sintering.
Speed
The HP polyamide 3D printing process can produce parts up to 10x faster than a deposition or laser sintering based process.
Economical and Cost-Effective
Multi Jet Fusion Technology uses a lower costing material and the speed at which it prints translates to significant cost savings when compared to other 3D printing processes
Superior Part Quality
Parts printed with PA 12 material have high density and low porosity, with smooth surfaces and the ability to print small features and details.
Voxel-Level Performance
3D print parts reliably and repeatably without having to worry about complexity. Every layer is thermally controlled for optimal mechanical properties.
Applications
The HP Multi Jet Fusion polyamide 3D printing process is perfect for applications that require strength and durability, but higher volumes. Here are some of the common applications we see

How Does MJF Work?
Multi Jet fusion is a powder binder based technology that relies on heat, fusing agents, detailing agents, and power polyamide to build up your parts. It all starts with a 3D model and then a 5 step process.
