Description
Ultrafuse® ABS Fusion+ is an easy-to-print engineering material and enables a much more efficient printing process. Meaning 3D printing operators will spend less time tinkering and more time exploiting the full potential of your 3D printing rig. To top it off, Ultrafuse® ABS Fusion+ adheres to water-soluble support – no more hassle with chemicals, just dissolve your support in water after printing!
The 3D printing community has so far considered ABS an unforgiving material: Now, thanks to the unique properties of ABS Fusion+ you can look forward to a high success rate with greatly improved dimensional stability.
