3D Print Final Assessment

Front

An issue with FDM 3D printers is that:

Back

plastic material can be loose with filaments if not supported.

Front

The purpose of the FDM printer raft is most likely to:

Back

hold the print to the build plate.

Front

Chuck Hall was the “father” of 3D printing because he: 1. created a computer format with triangles that machines could use to form solids. 2. designed a machine that created physical solids from polymer resins. 3. was dabbling with UV light and the hardening capabilities of materials.

Back

All options 1, 2, and 3 apply to the discoveries of Chuck Hall.

Front

The process of slicing in 3D print technology involves:

Back

creating a model into individual layers.

Front

Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) a 3D print technology uses:

Back

a thermoplastic extruded to form the various print layers of a prototype.

Front

SLA printers are 3D print technologies that:

Back

can be very messy since an epoxy resin is in and left in the build plate tray.

Front

FDM 3D prints are given internal strength and support by the extruder laying down the_________________________.

Back

infill

Front

Plastic is a popular material for 3D printing because:

Back

it can be reused and extruded easily.

Front

In 3D Printing, the computer aided design file is first converted by software to a triangular form which is an approximation of the model shape. This type of machine language is known as the ____________ file.
