Fused Deposition Printing (FDM)

Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), also known as Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF), is one of the most widely used 3D printing technologies. It works by extruding thermoplastic filament through a heated nozzle, layer by layer, to create three-dimensional objects. Here’s a detailed breakdown of the FDM process. The printing process begins when the nozzle heats up and extrudes the melted filament onto the build platform. The nozzle moves in a predetermined path, depositing the material layer by layer. Fused Deposition Printing (FDM) is a popular and budget-friendly 3D printing process that offers quick production times. This process minimizes the need for post-processing by allowing for easy removal of support material.
