How does FDM 3D Printing work
FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) is a commonly used 3D printing technique in which a thin wire of plastic, the filament, is heated and pressed through a small nozzle (the nozzle). The printer builds the object layer by layer, each time laying down a layer of molten plastic that quickly solidifies. The printer head moves according to a digital design, creating a three-dimensional object. The process is simple but effective and is often used for creating prototypes, models and functional parts.
What is the best application for FDM 3D printing
FDM 3D printing is best suited for creating functional prototypes, simple to medium-sized parts, and models that require mechanical strength. The low costs and fast production time make it ideal for projects where speed and budget are important factors. It is also a good choice for making parts with simple geometries and for applications that require durable, heat-resistant materials.
