Descubra cómo las trayectorias de herramientas unidireccionales optimizadas condujeron a impresionantes mejoras en la deflexión de calor, el módulo de tensión y la fuerza de rendimiento para Nylon-CF10 de FDM®, mostrando el potencial de materiales de impresión 3D FDM mejorados .
Stratasys FDM Materials vs Competitors
When switching from the standard toolpaths used by Stratasys to the optimized unidirectional toolpaths used by the competitor. Stratasys FDM® Nylon-CF10 demonstrated the results that follow:
3D printing mechanical samples with unidirectional toolpaths is appropriate to show the maximum strength of a carbon fiber filled material, but is not representative of the material strength within the typical FDM 3D printed part.
FDM vs FFF 3D Printing Systems and Materials
Fused Deposition Modeling vs Fused Filament Fabrication
Stratasys pioneered Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), a groundbreaking patented innovation that has become synonymous with quality and precision. Meanwhile, Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF), based on the same Stratasys-developed technology, operates without patent limitations and embraces open-source principles.
Although the naming differs, the fundamental principles powering FDM and FFF remain similar. Both methods employ molten thermoplastic material extruded through a nozzle, constructing objects layer by layer.
The key differences arise from the proven 3D printing technology and materials:
These materials showcase exceptional mechanical attributes, heat resilience, and chemical durability, rendering them ideal for demanding applications within sectors such as aerospace, automotive, and healthcare.
FFF 3D printers typically support a narrower range of materials and thermoplastics, which are more commonly used in hobbyist and consumer-grade applications.
