HP Accelerates Democratization of 3D Printing With Breakthrough Full Color PlatformPortfolio expansion ignites new wave of voxel-level innovation with low cost HP Jet Fusion 300 / 500 Series for functional parts in full color, black or white; Channel program evolution and new collaboration with Dassault Syst mes
News highlights:
Introducing the industry's only 3D printing technology for engineering-grade, functional, full color parts.
Solutions starting in the $50,000s open up innovation for small- to medium-sized product development teams and design businesses, entrepreneurs, and universities and research institutions.
New printers coupled with the industrial-grade HP Jet Fusion 3200/4200/4210 solutions enable customers to go from prototyping to full production on the same Multi Jet Fusion technology platform.
Evolving partner program delivers broader capabilities and targets new resellers.
Palo Alto, CA, Feb. 5, 2018 - Today HP Inc. expanded its 3D printing portfolio with the introduction of its new Jet Fusion 300 / 500 series of 3D printers, the industry's first 3D printing technology to enable manufacturers to produce engineering-grade, functional parts in full color, black or white - with voxel control - in a fraction of the time1 of other solutions. Depending on configuration and color preference, the Jet Fusion 300 / 500 series is available starting in the $50,000s, enabling small- to medium-sized product development teams and design businesses, entrepreneurs, and universities and research institutions to access HP's industry leading Multi Jet Fusion printing technology.
The new Jet Fusion 300 / 500 series complements HPs existing industrial-grade Jet Fusion 3200/4200/4210 3D solutions which deliver the lowest cost per part2 and are designed for manufacturing environments. With this portfolio expansion, HP is providing users of its Multi Jet Fusion solutions the ability to prototype and produce new designs and applications on the same platform and stay ahead with a future-ready technology for voxel control beyond color.
HP is committed to democratizing 3D design and manufacturing, unleashing new possibilities for millions of innovators around the world, said Stephen Nigro, President of 3D Printing, HP Inc. No matter your industry, no matter your design complexity, no matter what colors fit your business needs - black, white, or the full color spectrum - the new HP Jet Fusion 300 / 500 series gives you the freedom to create brilliant new parts liberated from the constraints of traditional production methods.
HP's unique ability to control part properties at the individual voxel level enables the design and production of previously unconceivable parts and is now available, for the first time, in full color. Whether in healthcare, automotive, consumer goods, or other industries; or for entrepreneurs, designers, or university researchers with the next great idea; the potential of new 3D printing applications is enormous. HP is already engaging in the co-development of new color applications with universities and businesses around the world including Phoenix Children's Hospital, Yazaki Corp., and Youngstown State University, amongst others.
At Phoenix Children's Hospital, we strive to create personalized experiences benefitting the long-term well-being of our patients, said Dr. Justin Ryan, Cardiac 3D Print Lab, Phoenix Children's Hospital. From visually-appealing casts and corrective devices, to custom surgical guides, to interactive and personalized anatomical models, we see tremendous value in the design possibilities and highly-accurate and durable parts from HP's new 3D printers.
Innovation for Small- to Medium-Sized Development Teams, Businesses and Educators
In addition to providing voxel-level control, the new Jet Fusion 300 / 500 series of 3D printers has a compact design, enhanced workflow solution, and the world's first integrated and automated materials delivery system, enabling greater unattended operation, ease of use, and dramatically increasing production efficiency and output. The Jet Fusion 300 / 500 series also supports the three leading color file formats (OBJ, VRML, and 3MF) enabling designers to reliably and easily produce the parts they want without the inconvenience of file conversion or data corruption.
The HP Jet Fusion 300 / 500 series offerings include:
HP Jet Fusion 340 (Black and White) / 380 (Color): for customers who have smaller part-size needs or who commonly print fewer parts per build.
HP Jet Fusion 540 (Black and White) / 580 (Color): with a bigger build size than the 300 series for customers who have larger part-size needs or heavier production demands.
Im excited about the range of applications for functional multi-color 3D printing, said Terry Wohlers, President, Wohlers Associates Inc. Its good to see that HP is targeting this interesting and largely untapped opportunity. The possibilities are infinite.
Building on HP's Open Approach to Materials Development
The HP Jet Fusion 300 / 500 3D printers will launch with a new material, HP 3D High Reusability CB PA 12. Parts using this material will have mechanical properties similar to the HP 3D High Reusability PA 12 material from HP's industrial solutions.
Leveraging HP's unique Open Platform for materials and applications development, HP will work with its growing materials ecosystem to grow the material breadth and drive costs down. The Jet Fusion 300 / 500 series will ultimately support similar materials as the Jet Fusion 3200/4200/4210, and also support unique materials that enable color or other voxel-level capabilities.
The HP Jet Fusion 300 / 500 series of 3D printers is available for order today and will begin shipping in the second half of 2018. For complete details and technical specifications please visit HP.com
