Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) is a pioneering and highly efficient powder bed fusion additive manufacturing technique. However, even with the addition of reinforced glass fibers (GFs), MJF-printed polyamide 12 (PA12) objects still have lower mechanical strength as compared to many commercial polymer compos...
