Nylon PA12 3D Printing (MJF)
Nylon PA12 (MJF) properties for 3D printing
What is Nylon PA 12 (MJF)?
Nylon PA 12 manufactured using Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) is an engineering thermoplastic that is sintered layer by layer with fusing agents and infrared heat.
The process produces high-density parts with nearly isotropic mechanical properties and a uniform surface finish suitable for dyeing and coating. Thanks to the fast production cycle and the ability to reuse up to 80% of the powder, MJF is ideal for functional prototypes, short runs, and end-use components in automotive, aerospace, consumer electronics, and medical devices.
