Stratasys ABS-M30 is a high-performance engineering-grade thermoplastic filament with exceptional strength and durability. It is a composite material consisting of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and a higher concentration of a carboxylated acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (c-ABS) modifier. This combination produces a more robust, challenging, and heat-resistant material than standard ABS.
Stratasys ABS-M30 filament is ideal for producing parts that require high tensile, impact, and flexural strength. The material’s stronger layer bonding enables it to withstand more significant stresses and strains than standard ABS, making it suitable for demanding applications. It can produce detailed and intricate geometries with clean, crisp edges, resulting in parts that are more durable, smoother, and have greater detail than those made using standard ABS.
Fused filament fabrication (FFF) or fused deposition modeling (FDM) is a well-known 3D printing process widely used. The process involves melting a thermoplastic filament through a heated nozzle and selectively extruding it to build layer upon layer. This versatile method offers designers and engineers several material options to create parts with specific mechanical properties. Fused Filament Fabrication 3D printing is a cost-effective process that can produce durable and rigid parts with moderate detail. That makes it ideal for businesses and individuals looking to create check fixtures, specialized tools, functional prototypes, and end-use parts.
