What is FDM?
FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) is one of the most versatile and scalable forms of 3D printing, perfect for producing functional parts, enclosures, and large-format prints. At Printology Labs, our dedicated FDM lab is powered by a fleet of Prusa XL printers, engineered to tackle everything from one-off prototypes to full production runs—no matter the size.
We support a wide range of filament materials, including:
- PLA, PETG, and ASA for general-use applications
- Carbon, Nylon and Flex-infused filaments for added strength, flexibility, or impact resistance
FDM is ideal for:
- Engineers and developers needing strong, durable parts quickly
- Prototyping teams working through iterative designs
- Makers and hobbyists building tools, fixtures, or functional models
- Clients with large volume or large-dimensional requirements
While FDM may not match the surface detail of resin printing, or the precision of SLS it excels in strength, size, and speed—making it the go-to choice for practical applications, robust assemblies, and larger-scale production needs.
