FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling)

Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is a popular 3D printing technology that creates objects by melting a thermoplastic filament and extruding it layer by layer onto a build platform. The printer follows a digital design, depositing the material precisely to build the object from the bottom up. As each layer cools and solidifies, it bonds to the previous one, gradually forming the final shape. FDM is widely used for prototyping, functional parts, and hobby projects due to its relative affordability, versatility in materials, and ability to produce detailed, durable objects.
