I must admit that ABS is little difficult material to handle in FDM type additive manufacturing. Although this is not the first time i am using ABS for printing my stuffs, still i thought the learnings are worth sharing.
I faced two major challenges:
- Uprooting of the printed part from the base-plate
- Slender members getting broken while printing by hitting with the extruder
The following video will explain what are those FDM ABS ALM challenges and how i overcome those challenges:
Working on a project? Quickly need a 3D printed (FDM for now) prototype, you may like to show your interest getting the part printed through mechGuru by contacting us at info@mechguru.com
