INTRODUCTION
1.1 What is 3D Printing?
3D Printing is a process whereby a real object is created from a 3D Design. Fused Filament
Fabrication (FFF) is one of the most common technologies used by 3D Printers to achieve this. FFF
works on an‘additive’principle by laying down material, such as PLA lament, in layers to create a
3D object.
