Technology & Products
Key Products
Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) 5200/5400/5600 Series polymer 3D printers; MJF 1200 compact system; Metal Jet S100 binder jet metal printer; HP Industrial Filament 3D Printer 600 High Temperature (IF 600HT); HP 3D High Reusability materials portfolio (PA 11, PA 12, PA 12 FR); HP 3D as a Service (3DaaS); HP Additive Manufacturing Network (AMN) Program; HP Metal Jet Production Service; HP AI Text-to-3D solution
Technological Advantage
Proprietary Multi Jet Fusion technology leveraging HP's thermal inkjet precision; voxel-level control for anisotropic part properties; open materials platform with certified partners (BASF, Evonik, Arkema); scalable from prototyping to mass production; 3DaaS subscription model lowering adoption barriers; global service bureau network through HP Digital Manufacturing Network
Differentiation
Value Proposition
HP's additive manufacturing division provides industrial-grade polymer and metal 3D printing solutions designed for production-scale manufacturing, leveraging the company's decades of expertise in precision inkjet technology, microfluidics, and materials science.
How They Differentiate
HP differentiates through its proprietary Multi Jet Fusion technology that delivers voxel-level control, lower cost per part, and an open materials platform. HP's scale as a Fortune 100 company enables R&D investment, global service infrastructure, and flexible business models (3DaaS) that pure-play AM companies cannot match.
