PC ABS

PC ABS is an incredibly durable automotive grade material, perfect for mechanical parts and technical applications. The addition of polycarbonate (PC) to acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) creates a material that prints consistently with near perfect adhesion between layers. The end result is a quality print that is lightweight, durable, and has a glossy surface.

Unset PC ABS

Unset filaments are your eco-friendly choice for your next projects. These filaments are made from waste material produced during our manufacturing processes. This means that Unset filaments are made from 100% recycled materials. and help reduce waste . The color of these filaments varies with each order thanks to the different color combinations of the recycled materials.

Recommendations for the press*:

• For best results, print at 265-285°C.
• A print bed temperature of 110°C is recommended. This material must be printed with a closed 3D printer .

* Ideal temperature may vary depending on the printer used.

Applications

PC ABS filament is highly regarded in the 3D printing industry for its unique combination of toughness, high heat resistance (up to 122°C) and ease of printing.

Functional prototypes

PC ABS is widely used to create functional prototypes that need to undergo rigorous testing and evaluation. Functional prototyping is a critical step in the development process in several industries, as it provides valuable insights into how the final product will perform in real-world conditions, as well as allowing for design adjustments and improvements. Automotive components such as ventilation systems, dashboard prototypes, and door handles can be 3D printed with PC ABS to thoroughly test their performance under conditions such as mechanical stress and exposure to high temperatures.

Consumer product components

Due to its excellent durability and strength, ABS PC is used to 3D print end-use parts for a variety of consumer products. For example, ABS PC is used to print custom cases for electronic devices such as handheld devices (smartphones, tablets) and drones. ABS PC's high heat and impact resistance ensures that the electronics inside are protected in a variety of environments.

Custom components for production

The versatility of PC ABS makes it ideal for producing custom fixtures, jigs and other components used in manufacturing processes. These include tooling, assembly supports and custom fixtures that must be durable and resistant to industrial environments.

Product storage

We recommend storing the filament in a cool, dry, enclosed space with a silica desiccant pack, away from UV light.
