3 Disrupt to create change 3D printing or additive manufacturing is a process of making three dimensional solid objects from a digital file. The creation of a 3D printed object is achieved using additive processes. In an additive process an object is created by laying down successive layers of material until the object is created. Each of these layers can be seen as a thinly sliced horizontal cross-section of the eventual object. 3D printing is the opposite of subtractive manufacturing which is cutting out / hollowing out a piece of metal or plastic with for instance a milling machine. 3D printing enables you to produce complex (functional) shapes using less material than traditional manufacturing methods. Why is 3D additive Manufacturing (printing) so important? It is considered to be an Intrusive or disruptive method of manufacturing various items, in a multitude of fields, ranging from Aerospace, dental, manufacturing, prototyping and many more. When compared to current manufacturing methods such as Injection molding, sculpting, and CNC (which are considered to be subtractive manufacturing): the cost savings, along with time to parts, and stock holding of physical parts, are becoming a more attractive and financially viable solution for many major businesses 1

6 What makes HP 3D MJF different HP 3D Multi Jet Fusion; is Not Binder Jetting, nor is it Material Jetting HP has used their knowledge in 2D printing, to extend the use of HP Print head technology to the 3D world, and uses a unique Fusing method to fuse powder based Thermo plastics. With HP s 3D Multi Jet Fusion technology, parts can be produced at a Voxel level, with a single pass. Each pass of the material (PA 11, 12 or 12 GB) is Fused, using HP s patented Fusing and detailing agents. Whereas technologies such as SLS and SLA, need to trace every single Drafting angle of the part; which increases production time, and reduces the use of packing densities in the Build box HP s 3D Multi Jet Fusion technology, address the 3 key features that investors and current 3D Printers identify as pain points 1. Speed 2. Quality 3. Cost 4

7 What makes HP 3D MJF different: Speed 1. Speed When comparing time to final part; HP 3D MJF is able to produce parts up to 10 times faster than current Solutions in the market 5

8 What makes HP 3D MJF different: Quality 2. Quality of parts The quality of a 3D produced part, is characterized by the following criteria: Mechanical Properties With HP s open architecture on Materials: customers has a wider range of materials available, and can produce parts with various Modulus and tensile specifications Dimensional Accuracy Dimensional Accuracy of +l- 0.2 mm up to 100 mm Details Minimum printable feature or detail of 0.1 mm Look and feel Parts can be finished in various ways and applications, to achieve look and feel; and to maintain accuracy 6

9 What makes HP 3D MJF different: Quality 2. Quality of parts -Excellent dimensional accuracy -At High material reusability & speed -Black color preferred by many industries -Color aging resistant -Fine Details -Crisp labels & letters -Optimal mechanical properties 7

10 What makes HP 3D MJF different: Quality 8

11 What makes HP 3D MJF different: Cost 3. Cost of parts Due to the MJF technology; and up to 80% Reusability of the HP PA 12 material, part can be produced at a much lower cost than other available solutions 9

12 How HP 3D MJF works HP 3D Multi Jet Fusion uses a Thermal Fusing process to create parts, in one single pass 10

13 How HP 3D MJF works HP 3D Multi Jet Fusion is a complete End to End solution 1. HP Smart Stream Software & Build manager 2. HP 3D MJF Printer 3. Build Unit 1 4. Processing station

14 How HP 3D MJF works 1. HP Smart Stream Software & Build manager HP s SmartStream software can be combined with market leading software solutions, such as Netfab, Materialize and others In the build manager, customers can manually or automatically fill the Build space to optimize the Parts to be produced Interlocking of parts can to be done via 3 rd Party solutions, as the build manager works on bounding box space 12

15 How HP 3D MJF works 2. HP3D MJFPrinter The Printer itself, is Material agnostic: and only holds fusing and detailing agents, but no build material 13

16 How HP 3D MJF works 3. Build Unit Each HP 3D MJF Solution is sold with x 2 Build Units, to allow continues operations for end users Whilst one unit is inside the Printer, being used to produce parts the second unit can be placed inside the Processing station for Fast cooling, or refilling the unit with build material HP 3D MJF has on average a 80% reusable ratio on materials and during the loading phase, a mixture of 80/20 is used between New material, and recycled material 14

17 How HP 3D MJF works 4. Processing Station In the processing Station, the build unit is loaded with the build materials, either new or a mixture of new and recycled materials Once a build unit is removed from the Printer, it is moved to the Processing station for Fast Cooling The Processing station allows for much faster cooling for a complete build volume. On average the standard cooling time is set at +/- 30 hours, based on a complete build size With the All in One Processing station, the cooling time will be a 1:1 ratio of Printing time. If the printing time is 10 hours, then with Fast Cooling, the cooling time can also be reduced to 10 hours: dependent on Packing density, and part density and geometry 15

18 Post finishing To achieve different final part look and feel various options can be selected for Post finishing the parts 16

19 Post finishing: Powder removal Removal of excess powder on finished parts 17

20 Post finishing: Surface roughness Depending on the final part or Product, based on Draft angles and accuracy; various surface finishes can be applied. 18

21 Post finishing: Colour HP 3D MJF 4200 solution only produces parts n Grey/Graphite colour; so to apply other colors, there are various options available 19

22 Materials Portfolio selection guide With HP s Open Platform on materials, HP is bringing down the barriers to advanced widespread 3D printing adoption across industries, through materials innovation Already more than 50 companies are working closely with HP, to have their various materials Certified for the use with HP 3D Multi Jet Fusion. In March of 2017, VESTOSINT has certified their PA 12 material as officially available for use on HP 3D MJF solutions. 20

24 Market opportunities Finding the correct market for 3D printing is where Dynagraph and HP, bring years of 3D printing experience to our customers; to help them leverage on the multiple opportunities; yet to be realized in the industries 22

25 Market opportunities 23

26 Case Studies: Personalized Prosthetics Europac3D were able to provide a solution for Crispin by introducing them to HP s Multi Jet Fusion 3D printers which deliver a solution that is up to 10 time faster and at a 50% cost-per-part reduction, to comparable SLS technology. The increased speed and cost reduction achieved from the new HP machines means that hundreds of customized and completely personal orthotics can be 3d printed overnight in one twelve hour build process. Another consideration for Crispin is that the parts produced were strong enough and have enough flexibility to endure the rigours of every day human movement. The sample parts produced on the HP machine passed all the tests and what is particularly significant with the HP multi jet fusion technology is that the parts produced have homogeneous strength in all three axes of build and therefore the orientation of build does not affect part strength or quality.

27 Case Studies: Manufacturing parts We saw break-even points climb from 5,000 units to 20,000, 30,0000, up to 40,000 units. We ve also gone through 19 design iterations for a part in the time it would take us to do one with traditional manufacturing methods. This speeds time-to-market and saves a considerable amount of money, which confirmed our belief that 3D printing is ready for manufacturing applications.
