Let’s now give you some insight how Norck achieves 3D printing and HP Multi Jet Fusion .

HP Multi Jet Fusion is an additive manufacturing process invented by Hewlett-Packard. In which particles from a bed of plastic powder are fused to produce parts and assemblies. It helps turn designs into scaled prototypes as close to the designed model. It is mainly used in the earliest stages of product development and can be used in conceptual models, functional prototypes, tooling, electronics, and medical industries.

3D printing requires 3D CAD models to print a part or assembly. The 3D models can be made using parametric CAD software such as Solidworks and CATIA V5, or Subdivision modeling software such as 3DS and Blender.

HP MJF is used over other 3D printing processes due to:
   -    cost-effective
   -    fast process
   -    Models don’t need support structures
   -    Minimum feature size 0.02” (0.5mm)
   -    Material is isotropic (97%)
   -    Reusable filament

Although there are disadvantages to using HP MJF:
   -    Printers and materials are proprietary to HP
   -    Limited materials selection
   -    Limited colors
   -    Post-Processing required

In HP multi-fusion jet, the 3D printer slices the 3D model into several cross sections and prints them layer by layer. Each layer of powder material is deposited upon a print bed by a material depositing unit. Then a thermal unit moves across the print bed to deposit a fusing agent and detailing agent. The fusing agent is deposited where powder particles should fuse, and the detailing agent is applied to the contour to help cool the part. The thermal units also contain infrared light to merge the particles and form the desired shape.
Once the 3D printed model is finished, it should cool down before being removed from the platform. Post-processing might be required to remove any excess material and burrs or to smoothen surfaces.

- Most used materials:
   •    PA 11
   •    PA 12
   •    PA 12 40% GF
   •    PP

Parts and assemblies should follow specific design rules to be printed correctly. Norck offers engineering services that will help you confirm your design for 3D printing.
