WHAT IS
Fused Deposition
Modeling (FDM)
Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), also known as Fused Filament Fabrication, is an advanced 3D printing technique. It produces prototypes by precisely melting and depositing material layer by layer, resulting in intricate three-dimensional structures.
Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) capabilities
- Maximum Build Volume (WxDxH): 330 x 240 x 240 mm
- Minimum Recommended Wall Thickness: Ensure structural integrity with a recommended minimum wall thickness of 1.2 mm, guaranteeing robustness without compromising on design intricacy.
- Dimensional Accuracy: ±0.5%, coupled with a minimum deviation of ±0.5 mm.
- Layer Height: Ranging from 50 to 200 microns
- Infill Options: Ranging from 10 to 100%
- Minimum Feature Size: 2 mm
MATERIALS
FDM 3D Printing Materials
Explore our range of versatile FDM 3D printing materials:
PLA (Polylactic Acid)
Derived from renewable sources such as cornstarch or sugarcane, PLA is a fully biodegradable thermoplastic. Its versatility and eco-friendliness make it an excellent choice for a wide range of applications, from prototypes to functional parts.
ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene)
Known for its strength, toughness, and heat resistance, ABS filament is a preferred option for engineering prototypes and functional parts. Its impact strength makes it a reliable choice for various applications.
PETG (Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol)
With outstanding chemical and thermal resistance, PETG is a high-strength, clear thermoplastic material. It is particularly suitable for projects that demand both durability and clarity.
ASA (Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate)
ASA offers superior UV stability, making it an ideal choice for projects that will be exposed to sunlight. Its post-processing capabilities, chemical resistance, and durability further enhance its suitability for various applications.
TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane)
TPU is a flexible filament that mimics rubber-like elasticity. Its high elasticity and resilience make it perfect for projects requiring impact resistance and dynamic properties.
TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer)
Combining the flexibility of rubber with the processing ease of plastic, TPE offers a versatile solution for projects that demand a balance between flexibility and structural integrity.

FAQS
Frequently Asked Questions
How durable are parts made using FDM technology?
The durability of FDM parts depends on the material used and the design of the part. Materials like ABS and Nylon offer excellent strength and impact resistance, making them suitable for functional and mechanical applications.
Can I create complex designs with FDM 3D Printing?
Yes, FDM technology can produce complex geometries, but it may require support structures for overhangs and intricate details, which can be removed post-printing.
What are the advantages of using FDM for 3D Printing?
FDM is cost-effective, reliable, and offers a quick turnaround for prototypes and functional parts. It is also versatile in terms of material selection and scalability.
What factors affect the cost of FDM 3D Printing?
The cost of FDM printing depends on factors like material type, part size, infill density, and post-processing requirements. Choosing efficient designs and materials can help reduce costs.
