FDM 3D Printing Technology
FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) is a widely used additive manufacturing technology that offers durable and dimensionally stable parts with high dimensional consistency and large dimensions and competitive costs. The additive manufacturing is carried out by melting the thermoplastic solid filaments through the extruder and passing them through the mold.
A support structure can be placed in the part by using a water-soluble material when necessary. Thanks to FDM technology, you can meet your needs for a prototype with high strength properties or conduct performance tests of your parts in the product development stage. It is a 3D printing technology with wide material options that can be produced with a semi-transparent structure or various shore hardness values to use at various temperatures.
Besides closed-system industrial FDM 3D printers, Tridi.co also has open-system FDM 3D printers for simple and personal use.
| Dimensional Accuracy | Layer Height | Filling | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Desktop FDM | ± 0.5% with a lower limit of ± 0.5 mm (0.0196") | 100-300 μm | 20-100% |
| Industrial FDM | ± 0.25% with a lower limit of: ± 0.25 mm (0.01") | 100-300 μm | Ultra-light, Light, Durable |

Different finishing options can be preferred according to the place and situation where the machined piece will be used. Some processes can be applied to make the model smoother, brighter, matte or corrosion-resistant. Some of these processes are listed below.
Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) 3D printing technology is an ideal additive manufacturing method particularly for the product performance tests to be prepared for early prototyping and the manufacturing of high-strength parts.
You can manufacture large models that are difficult to manufacture by dividing them into multiple small parts to manufacture separately and then assembling them together. Thus, you can have durable parts with high strength and dimensional properties manufactured extremely quickly at a much lower cost. A support structure can be placed in the part by using a water-soluble material when necessary. Thanks to this support structure, the geometric constraints are reduced substantially.
The parts manufactured by FDM technology have no hollows inside them. Thanks to this feature, this additive manufacturing technique is widely used when a flat surface is needed. The FDM 3D prints usually do not require any finishing. It exhibits high strength properties as well as chemical and mechanical strength properties, and it has a wide material diversity. Products manufactured by FDM have a rigid structure.
