3D printing is a type of additive manufacturing in which a three-dimensional object is built up layer by layer. The material is applied and hardened. This process can be carried out using a variety of technologies and materials. Well-known technologies include fused filament fabrication (FFF), stereolithography (SLA), selective laser sintering (SLS), and multi-jet fusion (MJF). 3D printing is used in a wide range of industries, including automotive, aerospace, medical, and art and design.
 
3D printing has the potential to influence the future in many ways. Some of the possible impacts are:

• Personalized products: 3D printing makes it possible to manufacture customized products that meet the specific requirements of a customer.


• Increased manufacturing efficiency: 3D printing can shorten manufacturing time and reduce waste by minimizing the need for tools and templates.


• Increased sustainability: 3D printing can help reduce waste and CO2 emissions by reducing the need for supply chains and transportation.


• Development of new applications: 3D printing makes it possible to develop new designs and constructions that would not be possible with traditional methods.


• Overall, 3D printing has the potential to change the way we produce and consume, and can help create a more sustainable future.

 
What is Multi Jet Fusion?
Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) is a 3D printing technology. The material powder is coated with liquid ink through a large number of nozzles. This fixes the material and gives it its shape. The ink hardens and the unbound powder is then removed. Multi Jet Fusion is often used in industry and for applications such as prototyping, small series production, and tool manufacturing. The technology offers high speed, precision, and efficiency in the production of parts.
 
The advantages of additive manufacturing are:

• Efficiency: Additive manufacturing enables rapid and efficient production of prototypes and small series without the need for expensive tools and molds.


• Flexibility: Additive manufacturing makes it possible to print a wide range of shapes, sizes, and materials. This allows for greater flexibility in product design.


• Cost-effectiveness: Additive manufacturing can reduce the cost of producing prototypes and small series, as no expensive tools or molds are required.


• Personalization: Additive manufacturing enables the production of customized and personalized products.


• Sustainability: Additive manufacturing can help reduce waste and use materials more efficiently, contributing to more sustainable production.


• Accessibility: Additive manufacturing offers small and medium-sized companies the opportunity to manufacture products that can normally only be produced by large companies.
