ABOUT THE F120 PRINTER
The Stratasys F120 3D printers incorporate the latest in
innovative technology to provide you with precise prototypes from
a CAD design. Stratasys’ Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM)
technology provides prototype parts, including internal features,
that can be used to field-test form, fit, and function. Direct Digital
Manufacturing (DDM) allows for the creation of customized end-
use parts straight from 3D CAD data. The F120 printers feature a
servo/belt driven XY gantry with multiple modeling material
capability.
