*Multi-Jet printing refers to the process of depositing liquid photopolymers onto a build surface using inkjet technology.  High resolution is attainable with a support material that can be easily removed in post processing.  Unlike FDM, these parts are generally too brittle for snap-fits.  However, lower durometer (softer) parts are possible with newer model MJP printers.  This allows the user to create rubbery or hard plastic parts for more diverse applications.

*Direct Metal Sintering refers to the 3
dD Systems metal printing process.  This process spreads fine powders of diverse metal alloys out onto a printbed, and fuses geometries together using an overhead laser beam.  This technology is used primarily in medical and aerospace applications, where low volumes of unique and complex models are needed.
