Fused Deposition Modelling
FDM technology stands for Fused Deposition Modeling. It is the most popular and widely used 3D printing technology. FDM printers are easily accessible devices, and the printing process in this technology is relatively low-cost. The process involves heating the material to its melting point and then extruding it through a nozzle mounted on the printer head.
When to choose 3D printing with FDM technology?
01
When you're looking for a cost-effective solution

FDM Technology – characteristics
FDM printing is less precise compared to other additive technologies. However, it has other advantages, including an almost unlimited range of materials and their low cost. FDM printers allow for the printing of even very large objects. This type of printing is easily accessible not only for professionals but can also be used in office environments.
