What is FDM 3D Printing?

Fused Deposition Modeling FDM Technology works with specialized 3D printers and production-grade thermoplastics to build strong, durable and dimensionally stable parts with the best accuracy and repeatability of any 3D printing technology.

Stratasys founder Scott Crump invented FDM Technology more than 20 years ago, and Stratasys has continued to lead the 3D printing revolution ever since.

Benefits of FDM Technology:

l The technology is clean, simple-to-use and office-friendly

l Supported production-grade thermoplastics are mechanically and environmentally stable

l Complex geometries and cavities that would otherwise be problematic become practical with FDM technology

l 4 Industry Uses for FDM Printers

By this point in your life, chances are you have probably used a hot glue gun at least once. It is a common household tool used for a variety of projects. Stratasys FDM 3D printers are the same. Like glue guns, FDM technology is a common additive manufacturing tool for a range of applications. In this blog, I highlight the top four industry uses for FDM printers.
