Kinds of 3D printers
Types of manufacturing
3D printing
Filaments
Wild (any)
100

The 3D printer that can be considered a fancy hot glue gun.

Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM)

100

The type manufacturing that 3D printing is considered to be a part of

Additive manufacturing

100

Supports are used to stop sagging (T or F)

True

100

The filament that has the greatest variety of colors

PLA

100

The 3D printer that uses a projector and takes minutes

CLIP

200

The kind of 3D printer that can print with metal and plastic

SLS (Selective Laser Sintering)

200

The kind of manufacturing has a long history use and is used to model strong materials

Subtractive manufacturing

200

The difference between 2D and 3D

3D has height while 2D doesn't

200

The filament known for being flexible

TPU
200

The 3 major parts of a 3D printer

Extruder, Hot End, and Print Bed

300

The printer that is the most expensive

Metal SLS

300

The kind of manufacturing that is the best way to create clothing

Cutting

300

The benefit of having 2 extruders

It can print 2 different filaments at once
300

The filament that is inexpensive

PLA

300
The best way to increase the strength of a print

Infill

400

The only printer able to enclose existing objects

CAL

400

The example that is made by nature without the help of humans

Stalactites/Stalagmites

400

The reason 3D printing is like a hot glue gun

Thermoplastics are pushed through a hot end and cools to become a model

400

The kind of filament usable as a food tray

PETG

400

The kind of manufacturing that was used to make stone statues

Subtractive manufacturing

500

The 3D printer uses powdered nylon and is light weight but highly durable

SLS plastic

500

The kind of manufacturing that doesn't add or subtract materials

Forming

500
The reason supports aren't used as much

They take more time and it uses more money

500

The printing material that can be toxic to people when exposed for a long period of time

Resin

500

The 3D printer that uses a beam of light to melt material into a shape

Directed Energy Depostion
