BLACK ABS Print properties

To obtain quality prints, it is important to respect certain printing conditions:

• Extrusion temperature: 220 – 240°C
• Platen temperature: 100 – 115°C
• Recommended printing speed: 20 – 50 mm/s

Mechanical and thermal properties

• Tensile strength: 70MPa
• Elongation at break: 13
• Glass transition temperature: 95 – 115°C
• Degradation temperature: >250°C

Medical applications

Black medical grade ABS filament is particularly suitable for specific healthcare applications:

• Orthotics: Ideal for the manufacture of orthotics and support devices, this filament enables the creation of parts that come into direct contact with the skin, while ensuring good mechanical and thermal resistance.
• Anatomical models: Thanks to its high precision and strength, it is used to produce anatomical models for surgical planning, teaching or medical training.
