fused deposition modeling (fdm) is add the layers overs layer made a 3d model.
PLA (FDM) or ABS (FDM) are the basic & cheapest materials in FDM 3d printing but they have a rough surface finish.
ABS resin (SLA) is the cheapest option as well as it has a smooth surface finish, the best material option for showcase purposes models or patterns for mold making.
For this we have CF Nylon12 (FDM), its carbon fiber nylon.
Then HP Nylon PA12 in MJF.
Glass filled nylon ie. FS3400GF in SLS 3d printing.
ASA in FDM & HP nylon PA12 (MJF) are the material strong & UV stable.
Then we have ABS-M30I material in FDM
ULTEM-1010 (FDM) (can be use for medical/ food applications)
MED610 (Polyjet) medical grade material .
These are Stratasys certified materials.
Infill is like a density of material in the model.
It helps to optimize the weight of the model, printing time.
& It’s also help to minimize the printing cost.
