Description

The ABS Plus Machine-3D filament is a high-quality filament with little sensitivity to heat deformation (warping), it provides an excellent surface finish on your 3D printed parts while respecting their measurements. ABS (Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene) is a thermoplastic material that is widely used in general industry due to its excellent impact resistance. It will be suitable for printing small precise parts in their design, or mechanical parts by its higher resistance to heat and stress. Its special formulation falls down bad smells and it is adopt both by makers to professional users. The use of ABS requires the systematic use of a heatbed to limit the warping effects of the plastic on the base of the 3D part. The Machines-3D ABS has an attractive price and above all a wide range of colors!

Recommendations

For optimum quality, we recommend that you set your extrusion temperature from 245°C to 265°C for this filament, while the heater plate should be set between 90°C and 110°C.
ABS contains styrene, which is emitted during melting in the form of fine particles, which can be dangerous for users with respiratory disorders and whose effects on humans are little known. As a precaution, we advise you to choose seamless and filtered 3D printers to print in ABS, in dedicated or airy empty spaces.
