Core 1 - 3.7 3D Printer

Question 1

3D Printer

Answer 1

-Creates a 3D model with various materials

-Additive means - it starts from nothing and builds accordingly

Pro:
Prototyping for cheap

Question 2

Filament Printing

Answer 2

-Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM): Melt filament to 3D print / Print a layer –> Go to the next layer –> repeat

Pro:
-Larger print bed than resin printer
-Minimal mess/disposal
-easy to use material

Question 3

Resin Printing

Answer 3

-Stereolithography (SLA)

-Resin is hardened with ultraviolet light

-Prints from the bottom and is hanging from the print bed

Pro:
-Smoother/finer detail

Con:
-wear protective gear to handle material / additional resin must be disposed of properly

Question 4

print bed

Answer 4

-flat adhesive surface

Filament Printing:
-Where the 3D model is created / printing surface

Resin Printing:
the location where the resin is hardened by the UV light
