Protolabs Network is the first online platform to bring HP’s Multi Jet Fusion Technology to market. Using a network of HP Multi Jet Fusion Protolabs Network based in Europe and North America, the new technology becomes locally accessible to designers and engineers.

The first material available will be PA 12 (Nylon) in Grey and Black. As more materials, various detailing agents and new colors are released, Protolabs Network will continue to update accordingly. The partnering service providers helping bring Multi Jet Fusion Technology to Protolabs Network include: Kurz (Germany), My3DPart (France), 3iD (Belgium) and Go Proto (USA).

The benefits of Multi Jet Fusion technology over traditional sintering technology include higher reusability of powder, faster printing times, and increased part strength thanks to HP’s proprietary fusing agent.
