What is FDM 3D Printing?

Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is a 3D printing technology that builds parts layer by layer by extruding thermoplastic material through a heated nozzle. FDM 3D printing is ideal for functional prototyping, durable manufacturing tools, and low-volume production parts. Choosing to 3D print with FDM gives you access to the widest range of thermoplastic 3D printing materials including ASA, ABS, ULTEM, and more.

(406 x 355 x 406 mm)

Layer Thickness

0.005 in–0.013 in

Soluble for most materials. Break-away for PC-ISO and ULTEM. Soluble or break-away for PC

Achievable Accuracy: Parts are produced within an accuracy of ± .127 mm (± .005 in.) or ± .0015 mm/mm (± .0015 in/in), whichever is greater. Z part accuracy includes an additional tolerance of -0.000/+slice height. Note: Accuracy is geometry-dependent. This accuracy is based on statistical data at a 95% dimensional yield.
