Description

Multiple Color (White) ABS Filament

ABS remains for Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene, which is a robust, oil-based plastic used in 3D printing.

This material comes in filament form with a 1.75mm diameter and various colors. It is a sought-after material for industries looking to produce functional parts or prototypes, despite its more challenging printing process compared to PLA.

ABS is favored among 3D printing professionals for its superior strength, impact resistance, and heat tolerance, which range from -20°C to 80°C.

The material has an opaque appearance with a smooth, shiny finish and can be chemically bonded using acetone.

ABS has a higher melting temperature compared to other materials, around 200°C, and it is recommended to use an extrusion temperature between 230 and 260°C.

A heated bed with a temperature between 80 and 130°C is also required for successful ABS printing.

FAQs

What can I avoid warping while using it?

Warping occurs when the corners or edges of the ABS print lift off the build plate during printing, causing the print to deform. This problem can be prevented by using a heated build plate, ensuring proper adhesion, using a brim or raft, and properly cooling the printed object.

How can I get rid of cracks in ABS prints?

Cracks in ABS prints are due to rapid cooling or improper temperature control. To avoid cracks, it is important to have proper temperature settings, slow down the cooling process, and avoid cooling the object too quickly.

How to deal with ABS stringing?

ABS stringing can be due to high temperature or over-extrusion. To reduce ABS stringing, lower the temperature, adjust the retraction settings, and clean the nozzle regularly.
