…HP Inc. and Siemens are expanding their existing partnership to add functionality for HP\u2019s full-color 3D printing technology. To learn more about what this means within the larger context of HP\u2019s Multi Jet Fusion (MJF), we spoke to Stephen Nigro, president of 3D Printing at HP Inc.<\/EM><\/SPAN><\/P><\/p>\n The announcement largely refers to the fact that Siemens\u2019 NX and Solid Edge software will be able to create parts intended specifically for full-color printing.<\/EM><\/P><\/p>\n \u201cTo put it simply, Siemens\u2019 NX and SolidEdge users will be able to assign the full spectrum of colors\u2014at the voxel level\u2014to the surfaces of their 3D models and export open-format 3MF files that are ready to print with HP\u2019s new Jet Fusion 300\/500 series color 3D printers, opening up a whole new world of 3D product design and manufacturing possibilities,\u201d Nigro told engineering.com.<\/EM><\/P><\/p>\n Nigro elaborated on what it means to be able to modify the individual voxels of a 3D model within NX or Solid Edge. \u201cIn this context, voxel-level control means being able to assign the full spectrum of colors to the surfaces of a part with a degree of control and precision smaller than the width of a human hair,\u201d Nigro said.\u201cSiemens is also working on additional methods to leverage voxel control starting with color, and extending to material properties like density and elastic modulus.\u201d<\/EM><\/P><\/p>\n
