Abstract
In general, techniques are described for a patterned filament for fused filament fabrication. An additive manufacturing system may include a substrate defining a major surface, a filament delivery device, and a computing device. The computing device may be configured to control the filament delivery device to deposit a filament on the substrate, the filament including a primary material and a first binder, where the primary material distributed in a pattern having a first cross sectional geometry that differs from a second cross sectional geometry of the filament, and the binder is configured to be substantially removed from the filament.
