Description: The principle of Fused Deposition Modeling is simple. You can compare it with a hot glue gun in which you put sticks of glue. The glue is heated up to the temperature that it melts and pushed through a fine nozzle in the front of the glue gun. nnIn an FDM printer, no glue is used but a long plastic wire as basic material. It is fed by a spool to the nozzle where the material is also liquefied and ‘drawn’ on the platform where it immediately becomes hard again. The nozzle is steered in the X-
