3D PRINTER
The HP Jet Fusion 4200 3D Printing Solution consists of a 3D printer, a switchable build unit and a fast-cooling station. It also includes intuitive and powerful software with the necessary tools for data preparation and subsequent production of parts. The solution also includes specialized software (HP 3D Process Control) for seamless process control to ensure repeatable accuracy, reliability and production stability.
Filling or replacement of material for printing takes place automatically in the cooling station. The filled and ready build unit is inserted into the 3D printer to start printing.
After printing the parts, you simply move the building unit to the cooling station for fast cooling and removal and subsequent reuse of unfused material. In the meantime, you insert a fresh build unit into the 3D printer so you can continue printing more parts.USES OF HP 3D PRINTING
IN PRODUCTION
Multi Jet Fusion offers a unique development opportunity for manufacturing companies. You can quickly create both rapid prototypes and thousands of functional end parts on one device. HP is thus entering the arena of conventional technologies for the production of plastic parts, such as injection molding.
Plastic injection molding has no competition for high volume production and low unit costs. However, you often need to start production quickly and you can't afford to wait for the mold to be produced. Or you need to be flexible in changing the design of products for which producing molds does not make economic sense. In these cases, the HP Jet Fusion 3D printer is a great alternative even for non-complex parts.

BUILD MATERIALS
In terms of further cost savings, the HP Open Material Platform is a revolutionary innovation in the field of 3D printing – allowing for flexible adoption of new materials and healthy competition among several manufacturers. The costs of acquiring build materials will gradually decrease and at the same time quality will increase.

Software
If you want to realise the full potential of 3D printing, you need quality 3D modelling. Today's software solutions can not only create 3D models, resize and convert to a suitable format, but also provide tools such as topologically optimization and full-colour texture.
Before modelling for 3D printing on HP Multi Jet Fusion technology, it is a good idea to familiarize yourself with a few basic guidelines.
Various software tools can be used to create 3D models for 3D printing, including the most commonly used CAD software. If you already work with CAD software, you can easily use it to prepare data for 3D printing.
FINANCING FOR PURCHASE
OR OPERATIONS
We offer solutions for financing HP Multi Jet Fusion technologies. We have an experienced finance team that will recommend a suitable financial offer, an attractive grant program, or a combination of both.
POST PROCESSING
All powder-based 3D printing technology, including HP Multi Jet Fusion, require some post-processing of the printed parts. Namely, the removal of residual, unbonded build material from the surface of the parts. This is best achieved by sand-blasting or with a fine mixture of plastic powder. Other processing, can be, for example, dyeing or applying a coating.
We offer functional and cost effective variants of post-processing equipment.
