Wherever a fusing agent was added, the layer below it melts together forming a shape, while the areas with detailing agent remain as loose powder without melting. The use of the detailing agent is to define the exact boundaries of the part for dimensional accuracy<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Step 4<\/strong> &#8211; The powder is cleaned, which leaves the printed part with desired geometry. This loose powder eliminates the need for support structures, as the lower layers support those printed above them (like in SLS)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Step 5<\/strong> &#8211; To finish the printing process, the entire powder bed and the printed parts in it are moved to a separate processing station. Here, the majority of the loose unfused powder is vacuumed up, allowing it to be reused instead of producing excess waste.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n    <aside class=\"article-content-aside\">\r\n        <a

While printing, all the empty spaces are filled with the unused loose powder, making MJF prints self-supportive. Multi Jet Fusion can be the best solution for printing complex designs instead of printing in multiple parts which generally is an issue when the alternatives like <a href=\"https:\/\/xometry.com.tr\/en\/3d-printing-fdm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">FDM<\/a> are used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"mjf-prints-parts-directly-in-colour\">MJF Prints Parts Directly in Colour<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Multi Jet Fusion is one of the few technologies which can print engineering-grade plastics&nbsp; (Nylon 12) in full-colour. With this technology you can produce full-colour functional parts while maintaining optimal mechanical properties. Since it is indirect 3D printing, it is capable of creating full spectrum color parts with a <a href=\"https:\/\/garage.hp.com\/us\/en\/innovation\/meet-the-voxel-3d-printing-building-blocks.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">voxel-control system<\/a> and is much more accurate with colour reproduction.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><div class=\"wp-block-image__wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/xometry.pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Part-printed-in-full-colour-with-MJF-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"Part printed in full colour with MJF\" class=\"wp-image-1898\" style=\"max-width:396px;max-height:264px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/xometry.pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Part-printed-in-full-colour-with-MJF-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/xometry.pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Part-printed-in-full-colour-with-MJF-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/xometry.pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Part-printed-in-full-colour-with-MJF-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/xometry.pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Part-printed-in-full-colour-with-MJF.jpeg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><a class=\"wp-block-image__fancy-box-button\" href=\"https:\/\/xometry.pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Part-printed-in-full-colour-with-MJF.jpeg\" data-fancybox=\"gallery-11563\" data-caption=\"Part printed in full colour with MJF\" aria-label=\"Open full image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/xometry.pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Part-printed-in-full-colour-with-MJF.jpeg\" class=\"wp-block-image__fancy-box-button-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"><svg class=\"wp-block-image__fancy-box-button-icon\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"18\" height=\"18\" viewBox=\"0 0 18 18\" fill=\"none\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\r\n               <path d=\"M0 2V6H2V2H6V0H2C0.895 0 0 0.895 0 2ZM2 12H0V16C0 17.105 0.895 18 2 18H6V16H2V12ZM16 16H12V18H16C17.105 18 18 17.105 18 16V12H16V16ZM16 0H12V2H16V6H18V2C18 0.895 17.105 0 16 0Z\" fill=\"#092C47\"\/>\r\n             <\/svg><\/a><\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Part printed in full colour with MJF<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"mjf-has-good-physical-and-mechanical-propertiesnbsp\">MJF Has Good Physical and Mechanical Properties <\/h3>\n\n\n<p>With MJF, printing of a part in ultra-thin layers (80 microns) is possible. This results in low porosity and high density which allow the printed part to have high resolution and good dimensional accuracy. Surface finish of MJF printed parts is naturally very good. These properties make Multi Jet Fusion ideal for functional prototypes and small batches of end-parts. The MJF 3D printing process results in highly isotropic parts with high strength and consistency along all the directions.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"multi-jet-fusion-has-a-good-pricequality-rationbsp\">Multi Jet Fusion Has a Good Price-Quality Ratio <\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Even though FDM can be a cheaper option, the dimensional accuracy and mechanical properties from the MJF part is much superior for almost the same price as FDM. Colouring and surface finish costs are also reduced as the prints come out coloured with good surface finish directly from the printer without the fuss of additional post processing.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"mjf-has-a-short-lead-time\">MJF Has a Short Lead Time<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>The MJF process is quick in terms of printing speeds, even faster than SLS. Since the powdered material is easily available and the technology itself is more suitable for larger volumes than its counterparts thanks to the possibility to print several parts at once, MJF is commonly used for printing mid-sized batches as well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"mjf-produces-less-wastage\">MJF Produces Less Wastage<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>With MJF 3D printers, usually more than 50% of material is good enough to be reused after a print. It is aided by the processing station which sucks excess material back into the printer to be reused and can also clean prints. Less wastage also results in powder conservation and less environmental damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><div class=\"wp-block-image__wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/xometry.pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/full-colour-3d-printing-mjf-options-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Ful colour 3D printing MJF options\" class=\"wp-image-1541\" style=\"max-width:600px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/xometry.pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/full-colour-3d-printing-mjf-options-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/xometry.pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/full-colour-3d-printing-mjf-options-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/xometry.pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/full-colour-3d-printing-mjf-options-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/xometry.pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/full-colour-3d-printing-mjf-options.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><a class=\"wp-block-image__fancy-box-button\" href=\"https:\/\/xometry.pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/full-colour-3d-printing-mjf-options.jpg\" data-fancybox=\"gallery-11563\" data-caption=\"Ful colour 3D printing MJF options\" aria-label=\"Open full image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/xometry.pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/full-colour-3d-printing-mjf-options.jpg\" class=\"wp-block-image__fancy-box-button-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"><svg class=\"wp-block-image__fancy-box-button-icon\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"18\" height=\"18\" viewBox=\"0 0 18 18\" fill=\"none\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\r\n               <path d=\"M0 2V6H2V2H6V0H2C0.895 0 0 0.895 0 2ZM2 12H0V16C0 17.105 0.895 18 2 18H6V16H2V12ZM16 16H12V18H16C17.105 18 18 17.105 18 16V12H16V16ZM16 0H12V2H16V6H18V2C18 0.895 17.105 0 16 0Z\" fill=\"#092C47\"\/>\r\n             <\/svg><\/a><\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Ful colour 3D printing MJF options<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"disadvantages-of-multi-jet-fusion-3d-printing\">Disadvantages of Multi Jet Fusion 3D Printing<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Apart from the advantages it offers, there are also a few common disadvantages that MJF possesses.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"mjf-has-limited-material-options\">MJF Has Limited Material Options<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>MJF can only print with nylon powders (PA 11, PA 12), PP and TPU, whereas FDM has many more varieties to print with apart from the materials that MJF uses (like ABS, PETG, PLA, etc). Other printers can also support food grade materials. If the requirement matches the limited material availability of MJF, it&#8217;s a good option.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"mjf-prints-have-a-rougher-surface\">MJF Prints Have a Rougher Surface<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Parts printed with MJF have good surface quality but it is rougher than the surface finish of parts produced by expensive options like stereolithography or Polyjet. Though parts can be post processed (media tumbling or vapour fusion) to improve their final surface quality, this additional finish increases the time and cost of the overall process.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"xometrys-mjf-3d-printing-services\">Xometry\u2019s MJF 3D printing Services<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Xometry Europe offers<a href=\"https:\/\/xometry.com.tr\/en\/3d-printing-mjf\/\"> Multi Jet Fusion services online<\/a>, for on-demand 3D printing projects, for both prototypes and large batches.
