Lecture

Fused Deposition Modelling

Description

This lecture covers the basic principle of Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM), where a 3D part is built from a molten thermoplastic wire extruded from a heated nozzle, typically ABS. The process involves liquid phase bonding, managed by nozzles. Different steps in the consolidation phase, block diagram, mechanical properties, companies involved, advantages, disadvantages, and examples of custom items like shoes are discussed.
