Fused filament fabrication
FFF (fused filament fabrication, also called fused deposition modeling, fused deposition method, FDM) is an additive manufacturing technology.
A fused filament fabrication tool deposits a droplet of one material (plastic, wax, metal, etc.) on top or alongside the same material making a joint (by heat or adhesion).
