FUSED DEPOSITION MODELING (FDM) 3D PRINTING SERVICE

High Quality Large Format FDM 3D Printing.

Custom Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) at Mucision

Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) 3D printing technology offers an extensive array of cutting-edge thermoplastics that match those utilized in conventional manufacturing processes. This makes FDM an optimal choice for producing end-use components, conducting comprehensive material property tests, or creating long-lasting jigs, fixtures, and templates for manufacturing purposes. With an impressive selection of 14 unique 3D-printed materials, Forge Labs’ FDM technology ensures exceptional adaptability for specialized applications, encompassing medical devices, electric static dissipative parts, and high-temperature environments that demand strict Flame, Smoke, and Toxicity (FST) ratings.

Forge Labs employs Stratasys Fortus series 3D printers, celebrated for their outstanding accuracy, part consistency, and one of the largest commercially accessible printing capacities in the industry. These machines enable the production of large, intricate designs using a diverse range of thermoplastics in a single build, accommodating even the most complex projects. The substantial build volume of 36 x 24 x 36 inches guarantees ample space for intricate designs. Stratasys FDM machines stand out as the go-to choice for exceptional results, thanks to their strength and precision.

Why FDM?

Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is a widely accessible and well-known additive manufacturing technology used globally by both hobbyists and large-scale manufacturers. This technology is celebrated for its speed and accuracy in producing three-dimensional polymer structures using various feedstock materials. The assortment of filaments available for FDM includes:
  • Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS-M30, ABS-M30i, ABSi)
  • Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate (ASA)
  • Polycarbonates (PC, PC-ABS, and PC-ISO)
  • High-performance plastics (PPSF, Ultem 1010, Ultem 9085, and Nylon-12)
These materials cater to a broad range of applications, providing users with flexibility and customization options for their projects.

FDM Finishes Available at Mucision

In Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), parts are constructed with support material that is removed during post-processing. As a result, the surfaces of the parts exhibit fine layer lines, which may require additional finishing depending on the desired final appearance and application.

Vapour smoothing is a cost effective solution that improves the cosmetics of FDM 3D printed parts. This finish seals the part and helps provide a uniform finish

Mucision provides additional FDM finishing and customization options upon request.

 FDM Materials Selection

ABS-M30™ by Stratasys is up to 70 percent stronger than standard ABS, providing significantly better layer bonding, impact resistance and flextural strength than standard level consumer grade ABS. ABS-M30 highly cost effective solution, ideal material for numerous applications including conceptual modeling, functional prototyping, manufacturing tools such as jigs and fixtures as well as end-use production parts.

Polycarbonate-ABS (PC-ABS) combines the desirable strength and heat resistant properties of PC with the flexibility & cost advantages of ABS. PC-ABS is one of the most widely used thermoplastics used in automotive, electronics and variety of other industrial manufacturing applications.

ABS thermoplastic with static dissipative properties (ABS-ESD7) is ideal for applications where a static charge can damage products, impair their performance or cause an explosion. ABS-ESD7 prevents static electricity build up so that it will not produce static shock while also preventing fine powders & dust from sticking. ABS-ESD7 is widely used in electronic manufacturing industries for creating jigs and fixtures, enclosures and packaging.

ASA provides the same mechanical properties as ABS-M30 along with enhanced UV stability, making it ideal for outdoor applications. Combined with good impact resistance, toughness and aesthetics, ASA is one of the most broadly used thermoplastics, ideal for concept models, functional production parts such as jigs, fixtures, working prototypes and manufacturing tools.

Ideal for creating durable end-use parts with high fatigue and chemical resistance. FDM Nylon 12 exhibits up to 300% better elongation and fatigue resistance than other FDM materials along with superior chemical compatibility for the most demanding applications such as repetitive enclosures, snap fits and vibration-resistant parts.

Polycarbonate provides exceptionally high tensile and flexural strength, making it ideal for manufacturing strong parts, tooling and fixtures. FDM Polycarbonate is a widely used thermoplastic in automotive, aerospace, medical and a variety of other applications for applications where accuracy, durability and stability are critical.

ULTEM 9085 by Sabic is a high performance polyetherimide thermoplastic offering excellent strength- to weight ratio and FST (flame, smoke, toxicity) ratings. Ideal for demanding applications, these properties make ULTEM 9085 a great choice for direct manufacturing of fully functional parts, prototypes and tooling with ultra fast lead times.

ULTEM 1010 is a high performance thermoplastic resin used to create fully functional parts ideal for aerospace & automotive manufacturing industries. ULTEM 1010 offers the highest heat resistance, chemical resistance and tensile strength of any additive thermoplastic.
