HP Jet Fusion 3D printers allow you achieve fine details and repeatable, accurate, and strong prototypes and end-use parts, time and time again at breakthrough speeds.
Reinvent How You Produce Prototypes and Functional Parts, 10x Faster with HP
The HP Jet Fusion series features industrial 3D printing systems that specialize in high-volume, high-quality production printing. The powder-based system puts down layers of still-molten material so that layers fuse together more completely than other 3D printing technologies. This allows the HP printers to achieve fine details and repeatable, accurate, and strong parts, time and time again.
The 4200 series was the flagship 3D printing product for HP. It incorporates speed, accuracy, and cost advantages not normally seen in additive manufacturing. With multiple materials available, this is a versatile and valuable tool to have in your manufacturing toolbelt.
The 5200 series 3D printer brings incredible speed and productivity, rivaling the production and cost of injection molded parts used in short-run production. Whether you are looking for one-off prototypes, tooling, or production runs, the 5200’s speed is unmatched in the additive manufacturing world.

Material: PA12W
This robust thermoplastic provides the best balance between
performance and reusability, for white functional parts across a
variety of applications like prosthetics, medical equipment,
lighting décor, fashion and wearables, and household appliances.
Material: PA12
Strong functional nylon material able to achieve highly detailed
prints for end-use applications. PA12 is one of the least expensive
materials from HP and is the most widely used material on an HP.
Material: PA11
Strong functional nylon material that has a high-quality surface
finish with more flexibility compared to PA12.
Material: PA12GB
Glass-filled nylon material ideal for applications which require
high stiffness and dimensional stability.
Material: TPU
Rubber-like, elastomeric material ideal for flexible applications.
Material: Polypropylene (PP)
Low-cost material excellent for its chemical resistance,
weldability, and low moisture absorption. This material is ideal for
fluid movement applications.
Material: TPA
Elastomeric material slightly stiffer than TPU.
Print Speed
Balanced Print: 16hrs - Fast Print: 11.5hrs
Balanced Print: 13.5hrs - Fast Print: NA
Balanced Print: 11.5hrs - Fast Print: 9.5hrs
Print time on an HP 3D printer is dependent on the overall Z-height
of the build, regardless of how many parts are being printed. The
machines feature two speed modes, Balanced and Fast, but Balanced
Print Mode is most commonly utilized for day-to-day print jobs.
Nesting & Build Prep Software
HP systems come with a free nesting and build prep software called
Smart Stream Build Manager. This software works great for customers
running lower quantities of parts. For high quantity production
environments, it is recommended to use a 3rd party software such as
Materialise Magics.
Fast Cooling 10.5 Hours
HP machines provide the option for natural or fast cooling. Natural
cooling is recommended for parts that are long and thin, while fast
cooling can be used in many cases to reduce the overall time to part
in hand.
Natural Cooling Units (Optional Add-On)
Natural cooling units free up the post-processing stations and build
units when printing multiple jobs in a row. Jobs can cool on the
side while the user de-powders parts from a previous job in the post
processing station. These are a less expensive alternative to
purchasing additional build units.
Process Control Software (Optional Add-On)
Process Control Software allows you to calibrate your machine
through the use of 3D scanning a bucket of targeted parts printed on
your machine. This calibration can significantly improve part
accuracy and repeatability for those looking to run high volumes of
parts. This feature is only available on the 5200 series of
printers.

What materials are offered for the
HP Multi Jet 3D printers?
PA 12 thermoplastic for strong, low-cost parts
PA 11 thermoplastic for ductile, impact-resistant parts
PA 12 GB for stiff, dimensionally stable parts
TPU and TPA for flexible, functional parts
PP for chemical resistant, weldable parts
Do HP printers require ventilation
or facility exhaust?
Ventilation and facility exhaust is optional, though it is recommended
to improve the comfort level of the print room as well as reduce the
overall heat dissipation in the room.
What is the benefit of the
post-processing station?
The post-processing station has multiple functions including:
Loading and automatically mixing recycled powders with fresh material
Unloading printed builds for initial de-powdering and cleaning of
parts
Cooling the build using fast cooling for expedited part retrieval
What software is needed to build a
part on a HP 3D printer?
HP machines come with free nesting software called Smart Stream Build
Manager. This software is sufficient to send jobs to the machine for
print. It is very common for customers to purchase a 3rd party nesting
software, such as Materialise Magics, for a much higher degree of nesting
capability. Those focused on production typically opt for this 3rd party
solution. Those focused on smaller volumes of prototypes typically stick
with the free HP software.
Is there any support structure to
remove with HP printers?
Since HP Jet Fusion is a powder-based printing system, no support
structure is generated; the powder is self-supporting. However, it is
necessary to remove excess powder from the part exterior and interior
through post-processing. This is commonly done by bead blasting parts.
What is the dimensional accuracy
of the HP Multi Jet 3D printers?
Dimensional accuracy can vary depending on the material and printer. Here
are some dimensional accuracy specification examples:
A part 80mm in length printed out of PA 12 on the HP 5200: XY±.28mm ;
Z±0.47mm.
With Process Control Software, the 5200’s accuracy can improve to:
XY±0.18 ; Z±0.30 for a part < 80mm.
A part 80mm in length printed out of PA 12 on the HP 4200: XY±.31mm ;
Z±1.12mm.
What is the difference between the 5200 series printer models: 5200, 5210, and 5210PRO?
There are no performance differences between the 5200 series of
printers. The differences between each model are cheaper
consumables and materials with the 5210PRO providing the lowest
part cost. The 5210PRO, for instance, can accept much larger material
containers which significantly reduces the price per kg of material.
