SLA Definition and Comparison to FDM
Stereolithography is a photopolymer-based 3D printing technology. It was first invented by Hideo Kodama in 1980 but commercialized and patented in 1986 by Charles Hull. The process works by shining a UV laser against a scanning mirror. The mirror directs the laser light in a pattern that traces out the cross-section of a single layer of the part. This laser then polymerizes the photosensitive material wherever the laser hits a solid surface – either the build platform or the previous layer. After each layer is polymerized, the build platform typically moves upwards with the part appearing to grow out of the liquid. alternatively, a bottom-up type process is also possible, but uncommon. SLA parts need to be post-processed in a solvent bath to remove excess resin and must be post-cured.
This is in contrast to FDM printers which extrude a plastic filament through a heated nozzle and deposit them onto the build plate. SLA can print parts with significantly better resolution than FDM. However, FDM printers are cheaper in general.

FDM Definition and Comparison to SLA
Fused deposition modeling is the most well-known 3D printing technology. It was first developed by Scott Crump in 1988 who later commercialized the first FDM printer. The process is relatively simple as it involves guiding a thin filament of thermoplastic through a heated nozzle/hot end. The plastic exits the nozzle and is placed on the build plate in the pattern of the part cross-section. Once a layer is complete, the print nozzle moves up one layer and deposits the plastic on the previous layer until the part is complete.
FDM is a simpler technology when compared to SLA. It is significantly cheaper for hobbyists, hence its popularity. There are many different thermoplastics and even flexible thermoplastic polyurethanes available.
