How Accurate is FDM 3D Printing for Prototyping?
When speed and affordability matter, FDM 3D printing often takes center stage in prototyping. But there's one question that comes up time and again, how accurate is FDM 3D printing really? If you're developing a functional prototype, testing fitment, or evaluating mechanical properties, understanding the accuracy of 3D printing, especially FDM, can be the difference between a reliable test piece and a misleading mockup.

Dual Extruder 3D Printer: Types, Principles and Tips
In the 3D printing industry, with the development of dual-extrusion technology, engineers can now use dual extruder 3d printers to print parts composed of two or more materials. Compared with traditional single-extrusion printers, dual extruder 3d printers have significant advantages in functionality and application range, but at the same time, design difficulty and maintenance costs also increase. This article introduces the types, working principles, advantages and disadvantages, and printing techni......

Exploring the Potential of FDM for Flexible 3D Printing
What is flexible 3D printing? The term "flexible 3D printing" describes the technique of producing three-dimensional goods with materials that have elasticity and may compress, bend, or stretch. FDM 3D Printing Flexible FDM 3D printing makes use of Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) to create three-dimensional things out of flexible and elastic materials. varying degrees of flexibility and durability can be produced by adapting FDM printers to accept flexible filaments such as thermoplastic elastomers (......
