2. Extruder (3D printing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extruder_(3D_printing)

   A 3D printer extruder is a filament feeding mechanism used in many fused filament fabrication (FFF) 3D printers. There are several types of 3D printer extruders. A Bowden extruder is a type of extruder that pushes filament through a long and flexible PTFE (Teflon) tube to the hot end. [1] An alternative type of extruder which is also widely ...

3. 3D printing filament - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_printing_filament

   3D printing filament is the thermoplastic feedstock for fused deposition modeling 3D printers. There are many types of filament available with different properties. [1] Filament comes in a range of diameters, most commonly 1.75 mm and 2.85 mm, [2] with the latter often being confused with the less common 3 mm. [3] Filament consists of one ...

4. Fused filament fabrication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fused_filament_fabrication

   In most fused filament fabrication 3D printing machines, the feedstock material comes in the form of a filament wound onto a spool. The 3D printer liquefier is the component predominantly used in this type of printing. Extruders for these printers have a cold end and a hot end.

5. 3D printing processes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_printing_processes

   A filament of thermoplastic or other low melting point material or mixture is fed into an extrusion nozzle head (3D printer extruder), where the filament is heated to its melting temperature and extruded onto a build table. More recently, fused pellet deposition (or fused particle deposition) has been developed, where particles or pellets of ...

6. Lyman filament extruder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyman_filament_extruder

   The use of DIY filament extruders like the Lyman can significantly reduce the cost of printing with 3-D printers. [2] The Lyman filament extruder was designed to handle pellets, but can also be used to make filament from other sources of plastic such as post-consumer waste like other RecycleBots. Producing plastic filament from recycled plastic ...

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.
