From Functional Prototypes to Complex, Low-Volume Parts.
MJF 3D printing is a polymer powder-bed fusion process engineered for high throughput and mechanical consistency. Unlike legacy methods, it delivers functional, end-use parts with near-isotropic properties, making it a highly viable alternative to injection molding for low-to-mid volume production.
Designing custom fixtures is usually time-consuming and CAD-heavy. Fixturemate tool is a parametric online configurator available exclusively for Xometry users.
