MultiJet Fusion (MJF)
Description
MultiJet Fusion (MJF) is a powder bed fusion technology that uses an inkjet array to selectively apply fusing agents and detailing agents across a bed of nylon powder, which is then fused using infrared light.
Features
Speed and Efficiency: Capable of producing parts at high speeds, making it suitable for both prototyping and low-to-medium volume production.
Excellent Mechanical Properties: Parts have uniform strength and are suitable for functional testing and end-use applications.
High Detail and Accuracy: Produces parts with fine details and smooth surfaces, reducing the need for post-processing.
Versatile Material Options: Compatible with a variety of polyamides and other materials, offering flexibility in application.
Materials Used
Polyamides (e.g., nylon) and thermoplastic elastomers.
Applications
Functional prototypes, production parts, and complex assemblies.
Advantages
Fast production speeds, excellent mechanical properties, and fine feature resolution.
