The Latest Definition from PADT's 3D Printing Glossary

Selective Absorption Fusion [SAF]

An additive manufacturing process that is a hybrid of powder bed fusion and some of the techniques used in binder jetting. Multiple inkjet print heads deposit an infrared-sensitive material that absorbs heat, enough heat to fuse the particles on the top layer of a powder bed where the heat-absorbing material has been deposited when exposed to an infrared lamp. It is faster than selective laser sintering and creates stronger parts than binder jetting because the powder is fused and not bonded.

Similar to high-speed sintering (HSS) and multi-jet fusion (MJF)

Abbreviated as SAF.
