Stratasys has published a new white paper on fused deposition modeling (FDM) and PolyJet inkjet printing.

FDM, conceived and patented by Stratasys, and PolyJet inkjet printing, patented by the former Objet Ltd., are now companion products.

The new white paper helps explain the differences between them, and provides guidance on selecting the right technology for a given application.
