ABS: Performance and Convenience
Providing exceptional performance and convenience, ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) boasts remarkable mechanical properties. This material ensures the production of durable parts showcasing less brittle quality compared to similar polymer parts.
| Standard lead time | About 4 working days, depending on part size, quantity, number of components and finishing degrees. |
|---|---|
| Standard accuracy | ±0.012 in (± 0.3 mm) - may vary depending on geometry. |
| Layer thickness | 0.004 in (0.1 mm) to 0.024 in (0.6 mm) |
| Minimum wall thickness | 0.039 in - 1 mm |
| Maximum build dimensions | Dimensions are unlimited as components may be composed of several sub-parts. The maximum build envelope is 3.28 x 3.28 x 3.28 ft (1000 x 1000 x 1000 mm). |
| Surface structure | Unfinished parts typically have a rough surface but all kinds of fine finishes are possible. FDM/FFF parts can be smoothed, painted and coated. |
