Ultimaker ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) is formulated to minimize warping and ensure consistent interlayer adhesion. ABS material is a great choice for creating functional prototypes and complex end-use parts.
Ultimaker’s ABS filament is one of the easiest to use on the market. When combined with the Ultimaker 2+ and Cura’s material profiles, even tricky mechanical parts are realized with ease.
ABS plastic spools come in 0.75kg. 2.85mm diameter.
Printing Settings:
- Print bed: 80 C
- Nozzle temp: 250 C
- Fan: 20% (Your print will fail if set too high)
- Bed Material: glue stick + glass (glue stick a must)
- Adhesion Setting: Brim
- Door: recommended (advanced printing kit)
Reasons to Choose Ultimaker ABS:
- Excellent interlayer adhesion
- Good bed adhesion
- Enhanced strength for functional prototypes and manufacturing end-use parts
- Enhanced mechanical properties over regular ABS
- Not suitable for applications where the printed part is exposed to temperatures up to 85ºC
