• Additive: one layer at a time
• Common methods for producing layers:
FDM, SLS, SLA
• FDM: fused deposition modeling
• SLS: selective laser sintering
• SLA: stereolithography
How does it work?
• Extrusion Deposit
• Vat Photopolymerisation
• Material Jetting
• Binder Jetting
• Powder Bed Fusion
• Sheet Lamination
• Directed Energy Deposition

• A.k.a: fused deposition
modeling (FDM)
• Most commonly used
• Prototyping
• Inexpesive

Extrusion Deposit
Extrusion Materials
• acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS)
• polylactic acid (PLA)
• high-impact polystyrene (HIPS)
• thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU)
• aliphatic polyamides (nylon),
• Polyether ether ketone (PEEK)
• paste-like materials (ceramic, chocolate, …)
• E.g.: Selective laser sintering (SLS)

Powder Bed Fusion
• Selective laser sintering (SLS)
• Developed in 1980s at UT Austin
• Pattern expired 2014
• Materials: metals, polymers, nylon
• In powder form.
• Un-melted powder becomes supporting
material.
