FDM Printing Example from Markforged

Fused Deposition Modeling

End-use, high-strength components.

FDM is the most well known form of 3D printing. It works by melting a plastic roll of filament and extruding the material onto a substrate one layer at a time. This produces strong and versatile parts. There are hundreds of printable filaments with a myriad of properties. Impact resistant ABS, UV resistant ASA and extremely strong carbon fiber are a few materials available.

Stereolithography

High-resolution small parts and models.

Stereolithography printing is an additive manufacturing process that uses an ultraviolet light source on a vat of photosensitive resin. This process produces very accurate and high resolution parts. SLA is often used for micro-scale components, jewelry and metal casting.

Metal Printing Example from Desktop Studio

Metal Printing

Laser-based technology that uses powdered metals.

In Metal 3D Printing, similar to Laser Sintering, a high-powered laser selectively binds together particles on the powder bed while the machine distributes even layers of metallic powder. Support structures are automatically generated and built simultaneously in the same material, and are later manually removed.
