Overview

What is FDM 3D Printing?

FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling), also known as FFF (Fused Filament Fabrication), is the most widely used 3D printing technology. The process works by heating thermoplastic filament and extruding it layer by layer to build three-dimensional objects from the ground up.
FDM 3D printing at Partwork offers professional-grade machines with layer heights from 50 to 400 microns, enabling everything from functional prototypes to jigs, fixtures, and end-use production parts.

FDM Printing Capabilities

Speed & Agility

  • Fastest way to go from CAD to physical part
  • Design iterations in days instead of weeks
  • Validate designs before expensive tooling

Design Freedom

  • Complex geometries impossible with machining
  • Organic shapes and internal channels
  • Consolidated assemblies printed as one piece

Functional Parts

  • Engineering-grade materials (Nylon, PC, Carbon Fiber)
  • End-use functional parts production
  • High strength and durability options

On-Demand Manufacturing

  • No tooling or setup fees
  • Low-volume production (1-1000 units)
  • Digital inventory - print only what you need

Sustainable Production

  • Reduced material waste (additive process)
  • Biodegradable material options (PLA)
  • Energy efficient manufacturing

Frequently Asked Questions

STL is the most common format. We also accept OBJ, 3MF, and can convert STEP/STP files.

Standard lead time is 3-5 days. Express service (24-48 hours) is available for eligible parts.

Strength depends on material and orientation. Engineering materials like Nylon and PC can be used for functional end-use parts.

Standard tolerance is ±0.3mm or ±0.3% (whichever is greater). Tighter tolerances may require post-machining.

Yes, we offer sanding, vapor smoothing (ABS), and painting. Smaller layer heights (100µm) also improve finish.
