Fused deposition modeling (FDM) Printing Services
What is FDM 3D Printing Technology?
The manufacturers and printers use a variety of 3D printing technologies and methods to produce various three-dimensional objects and patterns. But fused deposition modeling (FDM) or fused filament fabrication (FFF) has a much larger installation base than other 3D printing technologies. FDM is a mature 3D printing technology which was invented by Scott Crump before more than two decades.
Despite emergence of new 3D printing technologies, the demand for and popularity of FDM technology has remained intact over the years. The commonly used 3D printing method produces three-dimensional objects by depositing melted material layer by layer in a predetermined way. Also, it uses thermoplastic polymers as the primary 3D printing material which comes with the form of a filament.
How Does FDM 3D Printing Technology Work?
The 3D printers using FDM technologies are designed with an extrusion nozzle. The extrusion nozzle has the capacity to move over the build platform both horizontally and vertically. Once the thermoplastic polymers reach the melting point, the 3D printer forces them out through the nozzle. The nozzle further gives shape to the three-dimensional pattern by depositing the melted thermoplastic polymers layer by layer.
Once a layer is completed or printed, the 3D printer deposits the next layer by lowering the nozzle. Thus, the nozzle deposits the next layer of thermoplastic polymers to the completed layer. The printers can observe the FDM printing process as each layer of thermoplastic polymers appears as a horizontal cross section. Finally, the material used to support the three-dimensional object is removed after the printing process is completed.

Why Should You Opt for FDM 3D Printing Technology
Cost Effective
FDM is considered as one of the most cost-effective 3D printing technologies. It enables printers to produce a variety of three-dimensional products using thermoplastic as the primary material without increasing production overheads. Also, the 3D printing service providers can reduce printing cost using inexpensive materials.
Speed Up Processes
The high adoption rate of FDM technology shortens the lead time. Many 3D printing service providers leverage FDM technology to deliver products and patterns in less than 48 hours. The enhanced accessibility of the 3D printing technologies helps enterprises to print products and prototypes in a short amount of time.
Better Quality Output
The printers have the option to use a wide range of thermoplastic materials – PLA, ABS, Nylon, PETG and TPU – while using FDM technology. Hence, that can easily produce consumer products and industrial prototypes using the right material.
Ready-to-use Products
FDM, unlike other 3D printing technologies, does not require specific post-processing. The 3D printing service providers are not required to refine or enhance the 3D printed objects by performing any additional task. The absence of post-processing helps 3D printers to deliver ready-to-use products directly to clients.
