2. Fused filament fabrication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fused_filament_fabrication

   A desktop FFF printer made by Stratasys. Fused deposition modeling was developed by S. Scott Crump, co-founder of Stratasys, in 1988. [6] [7] With the 2009 expiration of the patent on this technology, [8] people could use this type of printing without paying Stratasys for the right to do so, opening up commercial, DIY, and open-source 3D printer applications.

3. 3D printing filament - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_printing_filament

   The process of transforming 3D printing filament into a 3D model The filament is fed into the FDM 3D printer. The thermoplastic is heated past its glass transition temperature inside the hotend. The filament is extruded and deposited by an extrusion head onto a build platform where it cools.

4. 3D printing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_printing

   3D printing, or additive manufacturing, is the construction of a three-dimensional object from a CAD model or a digital 3D model. [1] [2] [3] It can be done in a variety of processes in which material is deposited, joined or solidified under computer control, [4] with the material being added together (such as plastics, liquids or powder grains being fused), typically layer by layer.

5. FDM printing file formats - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FDM_Printing_file_formats

   FDM (fused deposition modeling) printing is one of the most popular types of 3D printing, [1] it is used throughout different engineering industries (medical, robotics, automotive) [1] and also has a great number of individual users that enjoy 3D-printing as a hobby. [2] FDM printing is so popular because it can produce near finished models of ...

6. Multi-material 3D printing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-material_3D_printing

   Multi-material 3D printing is the additive manufacturing procedure of using multiple materials at the same time to fabricate an object. Similar to single material additive manufacturing it can be realised through methods such as FFF , SLA and Inkjet (material jetting) 3D printing .

7. Material extrusion-based additive manufacturing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Material_extrusion-based...

   Material extrusion-based additive manufacturing (EAM) represents one of the seven categories of 3d printing processes, defined by the ISO international standard 17296-2. While it is mostly used for plastics, under the name of FDM or FFF, it can also be used for metals and ceramics.
