HP and Siemens expand color 3D printing

At Siemens PLM Connection Americas 2018, one of the largest events for Siemens’ PLM software users, HP Inc. and Siemens expanded their longstanding collaboration for even more functionality across a broader set of Siemens PLM software. The goal is to change the way users can design and manufacture with HP’s Multi Jet Fusion 3D printing technology. Siemens’ NX and Solid Edge Software will support color 3D printing through HP Multi Jet Fusion.

Users of Siemens’ NX software and Solid Edge software can design and produce full color 3D printed parts through HP’s Jet Fusion 3D 300/500 series. The Jet Fusion 3D 300/500 series supports the leading color file formats including 3MF. Users taking advantage of NX and Solid Edge for HP’s Multi Jet Fusion technology will have access to 3MF files ready for HP’s entire portfolio of printers including the industrial-grade HP Jet Fusion 4200/4210 and 300/500 solutions.

Siemens and HP share the objective to accelerate the digital transformation of the manufacturing industry, providing all of the necessary capabilities, from generative design for product innovation through 3D printing for industrial-scale manufacturing. Generative design creates products using functional requirements. Using HP Multi Jet Fusion technology, companies can manufacture these innovative parts more economically at larger production volume. Together, HP’s 3D printing solutions and Siemens’ technology combine in a single integrated solution that enables businesses to reimagine products, reinvent manufacturing and rethink business models.
