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. 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.

4. 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 ...

5. Multi-material 3D printing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-material_3D_printing

   An example of how 3D printing can be included in the design process is automotive design. [19] There, it is necessary to quickly test and verify a prototype to get the design approved for production. The reduced post-processing steps induced by the multi-material 3D printing technology result in a shorter fabrication time.

6. 3D Systems - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_Systems

   3D Systems manufactures stereolithography (SLA), fused deposition modeling (FDM), selective laser sintering (SLS), color-jet printing (CJP), multi-jet printing (MJP), and direct metal printing (DMP, a version of SLS that uses metal powder) systems. Each technology uses digital 3D data to create parts through an additive layer-by-layer process.

7. List of 3D printer manufacturers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_3D_printer...

   This is a list of notable manufacturers of 3D printers. 3D printers are a type of robots that are able to print 3D models using successive layers of raw materials. 0–9 3D makeR Technologies – Barranquilla, Colombia

8. 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.

9. 3D printing processes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_printing_processes

   Computer-Aided Design (CAD) model used for 3D printing. The manual modeling process of preparing geometric data for 3D computer graphics is similar to plastic arts such as sculpting. 3D scanning is a process of collecting digital data on the shape and appearance of a real object, creating a digital model based on it.
