ABS-Like

ABS-like is our closest representation of injection molded ABS in a 3D printed material. It has the same high resolution appearance as VeroWhite, but the material is much stronger and more durable.

  • Gaps for mating parts: 0.1mm off of each wall.
  • Avoid sharp corners.
  • Avoid enclosed designs. To remove support material from PolyJet parts, the machinist must have line-of-sight access to all areas that require cleaning.
  • Ribbing helps avoid warping on long, flat parts.

About the Process

PolyJet is a 3D printing technology similar to inkjet document printing, but instead of jetting drops of ink onto paper, PolyJet 3D printers jet layers of liquid photopolymer onto a build tray and instantly cure them with UV light. The layers build up to create a precise 3D model or prototype.

Along with the selected model materials, the PolyJet 3D printer also jets a gel-like support material specially designed to uphold overhangs and complicated geometries. It is easily removed by hand or water.

3D Printing for Rapid Prototyping: Processes, Benefits, & Applications

In product development, the rapid prototyping stage is one of the most important, iterative, sometimes hectic, and hopefully fun. There’s nothing like cranking out prototype iterations overnight, to come back to the parts the next day and start the process again. During this phase, engineers and designers can test and validate their ideas, refining them […]
