Stratasys FDM 3D Printers

Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is a widely used 3D printing technology that builds parts layer by layer by extruding melted thermoplastic filament through a moving nozzle. This additive manufacturing process allows for the creation of complex geometries and is favored for its versatility, ease of use, and broad material selection. The primary material used in FDM printing is acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), although some FDM 3D printers also utilize polycarbonates or polyetherimide (PEI). Due to their durability, FDM 3D printers are favored in various industries, including automotive and consumer goods production.

Stratasys FDM printers offer several advantages to manufacturers in India, as their cost-effectiveness allows businesses to produce high-quality prototypes without significant investment, which is crucial in a price-sensitive market. Additionally, FDM printers from Stratasys enable rapid prototyping, significantly reducing lead times and facilitating quicker product development cycles. This efficiency is particularly beneficial for industries such as automotive and consumer goods, where innovation and speed are essential for competitiveness.

FDM finds applications at concept, design validation and end-use parts production stages.

FDM printers range from affordable models to industrial-grade systems, making them suitable for applications in various industries, including automotive, aerospace, and healthcare.
