What is Material Jetting?
Material Jetting (MJ), otherwise known as Polyjet or Binder Jetting, is an ultraviolet-sensitive gel deposited by a print head and immediately cured by a UV lamp. The machine can use rigid and rubber-like materials and has an excellent surface finish.
Material jetting 3D printing is a solution for designers who want excellent visual models with an end-product feel. This technology can incorporate multiple materials and colors into one print. It is suitable for complex, flexible models.
How does Material Jetting work?
Our AM Technician takes your CAD file and uploads it into the machine. The software breaks it down layer by layer. We also consider the direction of the build and the placement of the supports. The Material Jetting machine sprays extremely fine layers of tiny droplets in the shape of the part from a printhead nozzle that are instantly cured with a UV light. Material Jetting 3D printing can use multiple materials and colors.
Once finished, the part coated in the support material, a combination of glycerin, polyethylene, and propylene, while the build is removed using a chemical solution bath and pressurized water stream.

Material Jetting materials at Midwest Prototyping
Material Jetting is the only industrial 3D printing technology that can print multiple materials simultaneously. This process allows for combining flexible and rigid materials, over-molds, and numerous colors. Picture a transparent human heart model with colored materials marking the arteries, atriums, veins, and ventricles that show blood flow. Since the materials are UV-cured, they cannot withstand prolonged exposure to light or heat without becoming discolored. Parts made by using Material Jetting should not be used in rugged environments.

Process
Description
Natural
Support faces are sanded, and layer lines are visible.
Standard
Support faces are sanded, and the entire part is bead-blasted for a matte/opaque finish with some layer lines visible (black will appear grey).
Improved Exterior
Exterior (cosmetic) surfaces are sanded, and the entire part is bead-blasted for a smooth matte finish.
Improved All
All accessible surfaces are sanded, and the entire part is bead-blasted for a smooth matte finish.
Clear
Natural finish with clear coat. The layer lines are still visible.
Improved Clear
All accessible surfaces are sanded smooth with a clear coat for optimal clarity on transparent materials.
Primed Exterior
Exterior (cosmetic) surfaces are sanded, bead-blasted, and primed grey.
Primed All
All accessible surfaces are sanded, bead-blasted, and primed grey.
Painted
All accessible surfaces are sanded, bead-blasted, primed, and painted (provide a drawing with your paint specifications).
Custom
Custom finish. Let us know if your project requires special finishing. Please fill out our engineer-assisted quote form.
** Note | Not all finishes are available for all materials. Flexible materials, for example, have a limited offering.
