In the world of Fused Deposition Modeling FDM printers, Cartesian and Delta 3D printers are the most popular among hobbyists who are new to 3D printing.The primary difference between Cartesian and Delta is in how movement is made in relation to the print bed. In a Cartesian printer, up and down print head movement is possible and has to coordinate with print bed movement on the Z plane. This book covers the essential 3D printing terminologies, with focus on elements that are more relevant to entry level Cartesian 3D printers. They are written to be more human while being technically accurate and useful. We use a particular 3d printer and software for demo. This book, however, is not meant to be a brand/model specific tutorial.
