, What would be the common printer that utilizes an enclosed build area?
ANSWER SLA Printers
Which printer melts metals into 3D shapes? ANSWER SLM Printers
Which of the following is NOT a type of material used in 3D printing?
ANSWER PVC
Which 3D printer technology makes use of a pool of resin to create the solid
part? ANSWER SLA printers
Which type of printer can print multiple material types together? - ANSWER
FDM printers

3D printers can only print parts that are rigid and unable to bend or compress. -
ANSWER False
What would affect the final quality of the 3D printed part? - ANSWER Scaling
of the part, part orientation, and setting the wall thickness.
FDM printed parts should have a drain opening to ensure that resin doesn't get
trapped inside the part. - ANSWER False
One way the shrinkage of the finished part can be accounted for is by scaling
the model in the slicer software before sending it to print. - ANSWER True
