FDM/FFF 3D Printers
FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) is the same as
FFF (Fused Filament Fabrication), but the term “fused deposition modeling” and the abbreviated “FDM” were trademarked by Stratasys in 1991, creating the need for a second name.
This method of printing takes a plastic (or other similar material) filament and squeezes it through a hot end, melting it and then depositing it in layers on the print bed. These layers are fused together, building up throughout the print, and eventually they will form the finished 3D part.
