MJF or carbon DLS for flexible TPU parts?
M
Hello, I’m working on a project that requires TPU/EPU parts for vibration damping and energy absorption, with a focus on resilience and tear resistance. I’m comparing HP MJF and Carbon DLS™ for these parts in terms of print speed, surface quality (for exposed parts with fine detail), and cost efficiency for small to mid-sized batches. I’d appreciate insights from anyone who has experience with both technologies, especially for similar applications.
