HP Starts Shipping Jet Fusion 3D 4200 Printer 3D Printers The first to receive the devices are the company's partners who supported the development of the novelty - Jabil, Materialise and Shapeways.

Jet Fusion 4200 operates on the basis of “HP Multi Jet Fusion technology”, which is a modified SLS (Selective Laser Sintering): layers of special powder are poured layer by layer, the desired areas of the layer are selectively sintered under special lighting. Powder from unused areas can sometimes be reused. HP claims that its devices are more reliable, print faster (advantage up to x10) and better, and the infrastructure being created in the form of professional software and the market for materials will make their use as convenient as possible. nine0003

The printing process is as follows: the model file and powder are loaded into the Processing Station, which prepares the printing process in the ”Build Unit”. Next, the Build Unit is removed from the station and installed in the printer itself, and printing starts.

Main specifications of the Jet Fusion 3D 4200 Printer (without Processing Station):

Maximum part size: 406 x 305x 406 mm
Layer height: 0.07 to 0.12 mm
Unit size: 2178 x 1238 x 1448 mm @ 730 kg (unpackaged)
Features: 380 volt power supply, 2 terabyte HDD, Ethernet interface

Processing Station weighs from 450 kg and measures from 1926 x 1245 x 2400 mm to 3121 x 1571 x 2400 mm (with fast cooling installed).

Read more about HP Jet Fusion 3D printers here.

The Jet Fusion 4200 is currently printing with HP's proprietary 3D High Reusability PA12 resin (with the ability to reuse “excess” powder). The device will also support materials from alternative manufacturers (the concept of Open Platform). For example, Evonik recently announced the release of its plastic. Printing materials will also be supplied by BASF, Arkema and Lehmann and Voss. nine0003

Ramon Pastor, Vice President of HP, commented: “6 months ago we released information about our Jet Fusion 3D and a list of forward-thinking companies looking to join HP on the industrial revolution. We hope that this cooperation will lead to a joint development, as a result of which we will achieve unparalleled quality and print economy.”

Also soon, HP plans to release a more budget solution with speed and layer height limitation HP Jet Fusion 3D 3200 with a price of 130 thousand dollars. With Processing Station - $155,000. The price of Jet Fusion 4200 is not reported. nine0003

Recall that Megan Whitman (Meg Whitman - Director of HP) announced her intention to release a 3D printer back in 2013. Then it was planned to show the finished model in 2014. In reality, HP announced the readiness of the technology and the serial prototype only in May 2016.

HP Jet Fusion 4200 3D printer review

In 2016, Hewlett Packard in Florida held a presentation of the first generation of 3D printers using Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) technology. For printing, powder thermoplastics are used, which are formed by inkjet arrays. nine0003

HP Jet Fusion 3D 3200 and HP Jet Fusion 3D 4200 are among the first MJF devices.

HP Jet Fusion 4200 3D printer overview an entire 3D printing system. It consists of the printer itself, as well as a recycling station, which is responsible for processing the remaining consumables. Powder that was not used up during printing can be reused: according to the manufacturer, 80% of the material can be used for subsequent printing cycles. nine0003

To do this, the old powder is mixed with the new, sieved and converted into a ready mix for printing. This whole process is almost completely automated and does not require active human participation.

The performance of the HP Jet Fusion 4200 printer is as the name suggests, with a print volume of 4200 cm³/hour. Products are recreated in the classic way for 3D printers - in layers. The layer thickness in this case reaches 70–120 µm.

INFORMATION! Compared to the more modest model HP Jet Fusion 3D 3200, the printer in question is sharpened for small-scale production, has a large number of settings. This allows you to make adjustments to the current production process - to add models to fulfill emergency orders. nine0003

Recycling plant reduces production costs, including temporary costs. It incorporates an improved cooling system, thanks to which the time spent on preparing material for processing is reduced.

Go to product

The performance of the MJF printer is far superior to that of popular SLS printers. According to HP, the HP Jet Fusion 3D 4200 model is 10 times more productive than SLS devices, and 50 times more productive than FDM printers. nine0003

At high print speeds, the printer also provides a large amount of work due to the working chamber with dimensions of 406 × 305 × 406mm. In addition, the printer can print several products at the same time.

The printer's extruder is equipped with three arrays. Each of them has 10 thousand nozzles, providing a resolution of 1200DPI. The printhead delivers 350 million drops per second with an accuracy of 21 microns. The total performance of the work reaches 1.8 teravoxels, and with each movement, up to 276 million voxels are processed. nine0003

By measuring the temperature in the working chamber in 900 points in real time, the shrinkage of printed products is minimized. If there is a temperature difference at different points, an adjustment is made.

The software was developed with the participation of experts from Materialize, Siemens and Autodesk. The system provides support for STL and 3MF formats. For management, HP offers software HP SmartStream 3D Build Manager and HP SmartStream 3D Command Center with an intuitive user-friendly interface in Russian

In the future, the manufacturer is going to focus on the more promising 3MF file format. The company also plans to develop a color MJF printer.

Print quality and product examples

High print quality can be considered one of the characteristics of the printer.

Patented multi-jet technology uses a multi-level nozzle array that allows multiple fluids to be applied simultaneously during the printing process. Due to this, the printing is of the highest quality, and the products are flexible and durable in all three dimensions. nine0003

INFORMATION! Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) technology delivers high strength and an order of magnitude higher detail than other 3D printing technologies. As an example, HP printed out a chain link that can withstand a load of up to 4. 5 tons. At the same time, the printing time was only 30 minutes with a layer thickness of 70 microns.

00 points and automatic temperature correction, which ensures uniform heating of the product and eliminates shrinkage.

Who will fit

The printer is too expensive and bulky for home use. The device is aimed at various industries, as well as small-scale production. It can be used to print souvenirs, prototypes and layouts for use in educational institutions, parts for cars, some household and electronic appliances, tools and accessories. nine0003

Modern polyamides such as PA 11 can be used to create shoe insoles and sporting goods. Other types of consumables allow the printer to print rigid cases and parts of tools, light and durable plastic products with increased flexibility, moisture resistance and resistance to aggressive chemicals (for example, kitchen utensils: spatulas, ladles, etc.).

What materials are used?

The printer creates products from powdered thermoplastics, on which a bonding material is applied in layers. Its quantity can be adjusted and depends on the requirements for the quality and physical properties of the finished model. nine0003

As a consumable for the HP Jet Fusion 4200 printer, the manufacturer suggests using thermoplastics of its own production. The advantages of introducing their own materials are obvious: the company uses high-quality raw materials, carefully selects the composition and manufacturing technologies.

This results in finished models that are highly detailed, accurate, and durable, while reducing costs significantly.

Initial setup and preparation instructions

The printer is delivered assembled, but before you start you need to perform a few simple steps: install the software, correct the fusible lamp and prepare the device for printing.

The control panel is located on the front of the printer. To have extended access to printer settings, you need to install software on your computer - HP SmartStream 3D Build Manager and HP SmartStream 3D Command Center programs. Software download pages are listed in the user manual. nine0003

After activating and launching the program, click on the gear, then click "Manage Printers" > "Add Printer". Next, you need to create an HP PrintOS account and follow all further instructions on the monitor: after synchronization with the printer, you can proceed with the settings.

After installing the software, you can turn on the printer. To do this, you need to connect the network cable and plug it into the network and make sure that the device is working. This can be seen from the switched on breakers in the bottom two rows on the front of the printer on the right, as well as three green lights. nine0003

If the printer is OK, the platform and tray need to be adjusted. The calibration tray must be installed according to the printer model, but the setup process is the same for all devices.

Calibration requires the latest FW release (minimum required BD9) to be installed on the printer.

Next steps:

place the tray on the assembly block platform as directed in the instructions for use;
insert assembly block;
on the front panel on the front of the printer, press the gear icon, click "Maintenance Menu" > "Calibration of Fusible Lamps with Calibration Tray" > "Adjust Calibration Tray Offset".

INFORMATION! The tray is inserted into the printer with the label facing down.

Next, the tray adjustment menu will appear as shown in the picture below.

Operate the UP (up) and DOWN (down) buttons to set the tray to the desired position. You can refer to the service kit leaflet. In case of an error, press BACK and repeat the procedure. After the calibration is completed, click OK. nine0003

Calibration instructions appear on the display, so all the necessary settings can be made without problems, even without experience. The main thing is to follow safety precautions and precautions so as not to damage printer parts and avoid injury. Calibration usually takes no more than 40 minutes.

Any desired settings can be made using the panel control: you can set the date and time, set an access password, adjust the speaker volume, select the units of measurement (imperial or metric) or restore the factory settings. nine0003

Software installation and tray calibration are the first necessary printer settings. The device can then be switched on:

Set the main switch to the on position.
Wait until the printer is ready to reboot message appears on the front panel.
Visually inspect the printer.
Press the blue reset button on the front left side of the printer. All printer subsystems with high power consumption will turn on.
Wait for the front panel to indicate that the printer is ready. This may take several minutes. When initialization is complete, the message "Ready" will appear on the front panel.

If everything is correct, you can load the printing powder into the cartridge by following the instructions in the user manual.

Another breakthrough in the field of 3D printing was the emergence of devices using MJF technology. The consumables are polyamide powders with good physical properties, which produce strong, environmentally resistant, flexible and durable products.
