multi jet fusion - hp\nuse the information below to answer the question.\nmulti jet fusion is similar to sls in that it uses powder and a heat source, but these components are used differently.\non the print bed, a fusion agent is laid down, which increases the heat source in that area. a detail agent is also applied, which helps define the edge, creating a sharper point. the heat source moves over the material, working one line at a time, similar to a scanner. this will create the first layer.\nthe re - coater arm will apply a fresh layer of powder across the surface after each layer. this is followed by the fusion agent, the detail agent, and the heat source.\nadvantages\nthis process is 25 - 30% quicker than sls. because of the fusion agent, there isnt as much heat - up time and cool - down time, so time is saved in the print cycle. this process also allows users to print using more than one color. however, the range of colors is proprietary.\nlike sls, multi jet fusion does not need a support structure. there is also less waste with the powder because it is recyclable and can be reused in the next process unlike the sls process, where it is hard to reprocess the powder once it has been sintered.\nduring multi jet fusion, what will the re - coater arm do after each layer of a print?\nremove any loose powder still remaining on the base\nheat the detail agent to better define shapes and curves\nreposition itself to match the parameters of the printers software\napply a fresh layer of powder across the surface
