A Survey of Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) Technology in 3D Printing

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This survey provides a thorough examination of Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), a prevalent 3D printing technology known for its accessibility and versatility. FDM has emerged as a transformative tool across various industries, including healthcare, aerospace, automotive, and education. This paper reviews recent advancements in FDM technology, focusing on material innovations, process optimization, and application areas. We analyze the benefits and limitations of FDM, including print quality, speed, cost-effectiveness, and environmental impact. Furthermore, we explore emerging trends and future directions in FDM research, highlighting the potential for enhanced customization, sustainability, and integration with other manufacturing technologies. This survey aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of FDM's current landscape and its implications for future developments in 3D printing.
