Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) is a type of 3D printing technology developed by Hewlett-Packard (HP). It works by depositing powder in layers, spraying it with a binder and release agent, and then bonding it together with heat for each layer pass. Similar to other types of 3D printing, the technology is particularly suitable for prototyping in product development, small-scale production, or parts that need to be customized.[1]
MJF is marketed as having strength comparable to injection molding.[2] The most common material in MJF is nylon (PA12 and PA11), but the technology can be used with many other thermoplastic materials, including elastomers[3][4][5] ("rubber materials") and fibre-reinforced composites.[6][7] The technology is claimed to be more cost-effective at large scale compared to other types of 3D printing.[8]
