In addition to binder jetting, material jetting is another additive manufacturing process based on an inkjet printhead. In material jetting the entire material discharge takes place via the nozzles of the printhead. The process builds up the model layer by layer from its cross-sectional surfaces, which were generated from the original CAD model by software called a slicer. Material jetting allows for the finest details and small layer thicknesses. Hard/soft mixtures are just as printable as transparent or colored models.
Most sources attribute the invention to Objet, a company founded in Israel in 1998, which launched the process under the name Polyjet Modeling (PJM) in 2000. However, a parallel development also took place at 3D Systems, which, according to its own homepage, already had a printer in its portfolio in 1996 based on the same basic principle, which they called Multijet Modeling (MJM).
