FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) |
Manufacturing process from the Rapid Prototyping area, with which a work piece is assembled via the process of the melting from plastic material
- Material: ABS, PEI, PC
- No tool costs
- Fast processing time from the 3D data to the end product
- Nearly every geometric shape can be produced
- Possible weight optimization
- Possibility to improve wall thicknesses
- Accuracy of repetition and adaptation
- Honeycomb – components with inner honeycomb structure, to spare weight and still attain a high load-bearing capacity and stability
- Surface can be lacquered/refined
- Parts can be lacquered high gloss or covered with:
- Carbon
- Film with a wooden, granite, marble, or many other optics
- Parts can be finished with various facings
- Very appropriate for sample parts, prototypes, visual objects and also as a prefabricated component or small series
