GLOSSARY OF TERMS

Term Definition
Build Platform The flat surface used by your Dremel
3D45 to build objects. The build
platform is comprised of a tempered
glass plate with a plastic holder.
Build Platform Clips located at the front of the build
Clips platform base that are used to secure
the build platform in place.
Build Volume The three dimensional (3D) amount of
space that an object will use once it is
completed. Your Dremel 3D45 has a
maximum build volume which means
that objects with a larger build volume
cannot be built unless they are
resized or broken into subobjects.
Door Your Dremel 3D45 has a door located
on the front panel. This allows for
easy access to the build platform,
extruder, filament, and your objects.
This door is made with a transparent
material so you can monitor the
progress of your objects while keeping
the build environment stable.
ECO-ABS Natural thermoplastic that provides
users with durable and impact
resistant parts.
Ethernet Port A local area wired networking
technology that allow electronic
devices to communicate.
Extruder An assembly that uses gears to
pull filament through the extruder
intake, heat the filament to the build
temperature, and push the heated
filament out of the extruder tip.
Extruder Fans Fans used to cool the outer assembly
of the extruder and gear motor.
Extruder Fan A plastic piece that directs air from the
Baffle extruder fan onto the build platform to
assist in cooling the active build.
Extruder Intake An opening located at the top of the
extruder where filament is inserted for
building.
Extruder Lever A lever located on the side of the
extruder that is used to loosen the
grip of the extruder gear motor.
Extruder Tip A nozzle located at the bottom of the
extruder where heated filament is
forced out for building.
Filament A threadlike strand of plastic material.
Filament Guide A plastic tube that guides the filament
Tube from the spool holder to the extruder
of the printer, preventing any snags.
Filament A sensor in the extruder intake that
Runout Sensor pauses your printer if it runs out of
filament during a build.
Filament Spool A cylindrical piece on which a long
strand of filament is wound for storage
and continuous use.
.g, .gcode, A buildable file format compatible with
.g3drem your Dremel 3D45.
Glue Stick Non-toxic and acid-free stick of glue
that is applied to the build platform to
help prints stick.
Leveling Knobs located under the base of
Knobs the build platform that allow users to
easily level the build platform before
each print.
Leveling A sensor that detects the height of the
Sensor build platform and assists in proper
leveling.
Lid Your Dremel 3D45 has a pivoting
lid on the top. This allows for more
access to the build platform, extruder,
filament, and objects when necessary.
Needle Nose Common tool used to hold small
Pliers objects and to grab excess material
that may be too hot to touch directly.
Nylon Synthetic polymer that provides strong
and flexible prints with heavy wear
resistance.
OBJ File A common digital file format used in
a wide range of 3D model software.
This file is created in 3rd party
3D software or downloaded from
Dremel3d.com.
Object A tool used to separate your objects
Removal Tool from the build platform.
PLA. A bioplastic derived from renewable
resources such as corn starch
PETG A thermoplastic filament that
combines flexibility, strength and
durability similar to Nylon but is easier
to print, similar to PLA
Spool Holder A plastic piece located to the left of
the build platform inside your Dremel
3D45 build area that is designed to
hold a filament spool.
Spool Door A removable door which locks the
filament spool to the spool holder.
Stepper Motor A brushless DC electric motor used
to drive the guide rails and extruder
gears.
.STL File A common digital file format used in
a wide range of 3D model software.
This file is created in 3rd party
3D software or downloaded from
Dremel3d.com.
Touch Screen Full color display that is touch
activated. It allows you to monitor
your Dremel 3D45 and objects while
also providing commands directly to
your Dremel 3D45 without the use of
a computer.
USB Flash A portable memory card used on a
Drive wide array of devices.
WIFI A local area wireless networking
technology that allow electronic
devices to communicate.
X-Axis Guide A set of rails on either side of the
Rails extruder that allow a stepper motor to
move the extruder to the left or right
side of the build area.
Y-Axis Guide A set of rails on either side of the
Rails build area that allow a stepper motor
to move the extruder to the front or
back of the build area.
