ABS filament settings 3D printer

ABS filament is a very popular 3D filament: you can print this filament relatively easily, but you do need a heated bed.

ABS filament shrinks if it cools down too quickly and as a result warping and layers can split. Therefore, ensure that you print ABS in an enclosed space or enclosure.

ABS is made from oil residue, is not degradable and therefore has a large biological footprint.

Keep the following 3D printer settings for ABS:

• Nozzle temperature: 220 - 240 ° C
• Heated bed: 80 - 100 ° C
• Fan cooling: 0 - 20%
• Enclosure: Yes, if possible
• Print speed: 25 - 70 mm / sec.
• Basis: Raft or brim
• Bed adhesion: Yes, Gravity Spray or Magigoo
• Minimum nozzle diameter: from 0.25 mm
• Nozzle: Regular brass is sufficient
• Storage: Always keep your filament in an airtight bag at room temperature in a dry environment
