The binder jetting process shares many of the advantages of material jettingrelative to other additive manufacturing processes.
With respect to MJ, binder jetting has some distinct advantages.

  • It can be faster since only a small fraction of the total part volume must be dispensed through the print heads.
    However, the need to distribute powder adds an extra step, slowing down binder processes somewhat.
  • The combination of powder materials and additives in binders enables material compositions that are not possible, or not easily achieved, using direct methods.
  • Slurries with higher solids loadings are possible with BJ, compared with MJ, enabling better quality ceramic and metal parts to be produced.
  • Binder jetting processes lend themselves readily to printing colors onto parts.
