| Abstract Scope |
The throughput of a single nozzle Molten Metal Jetting (MMJ) printhead is limited by the drop size and maximum frequency. We developed an 8 nozzle printhead which allows much higher throughput than a similar single nozzle. This talk will present preliminary results of experimental printing using the printhead. We compare print times between single and multi-nozzle printheads and analyze deposited layers to show how jetting conditions and print strategy affect the characteristics of layers printed in a multi-nozzle system. The possibility of scaling throughput without sacrificing minimum feature size makes multi-nozzle MMJ a promising area for future development. |
