HP Jet Fusion 3D Printing Solution
Xometry is now able to print parts with HP's Multi Jet Fusion technology.
Xometry, an on-demand manufacturing service, has added HP’s Multi Jet Fusion technology to its repertoire.
The company offers a range of 3D printing technologies including selective laser sintering (SLS), stereolithography (SLA), fused deposition modelling (FDM), direct metal laser sintering (DMLS), and Polyjet. Xometry also boasts CNC machining, injection moulding, sheet metal, and urethane casting capabilities.
Customers of the Maryland-based service are immediately able to get instant quotes when uploading their design file, as well as receive design feedback and lead times for manufacturing their part with Multi Jet Fusion through Xometry’s Instant Quoting Engine. Using this function, customers can switch between the Nylon PA 12 and Nylon PA 12 Glass Beads materials offered with Multi Jet Fusion, or even switch to another of the manufacturing processes Xometry offers.
Yet, the company felt it necessary to invest in Multi Jet Fusion as a result of customer demand. Xometry believes, in particular, its precision, rapid turnaround, and ability to produce parts in volume are big advantages for its customer base.
“We’re thrilled to add HP Multi Jet Fusion technology to Xometry’s capabilities,” commented Randy Altschuler, Xometry’s CEO. “Our additive customers have been asking us for it due to its reputation for speed and quality.”
Xometry was founded in 2014 and has aimed since then to solve the problems product designers had in finding an ‘optimal manufacturing solution’ for their custom part needs, and the problem machine shops had dealing with enquiries for custom parts that never materialised as orders. Its proposes solution is its Instant Quoting Engine, which is able to calculate the cost and time in the delivery of parts at a push of the button. Supplementing this software platform is a range of additive and subtractive manufacturing processes.
