Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM)

FDM is one of the most well-known 3D printing technologies on the market. It works similar to a glue gun or cream injector (depending on which one you use more). FDM machines use strings of solid material which they melt inside a heated nozzle to form an object. Nowadays FFF/FDM printers are more user-friendly. From UI to printing quality, this technology becomes suitable for more applications, including commercial printing of components and rough prototypes.
