Material Overview
Support for ABS enhances ABS printing operations through specialized support material technology. Engineered for straightforward processing and effortless removal, material ensures flawless support interface consistency. Full AMS system compatibility streamlines ABS printing workflow from initiation to completion. Eliminates tedious support removal procedures, delivering smoother, more efficient operational workflow.
Simplified Removal Process
Formulation specifically engineered for ABS applications provides precise adhesion to ABS surfaces, enabling simplified support structure removal. Streamlines post-processing operations, ensuring enhanced workflow efficiency.
Premium Interface Quality
Support for ABS enables 0mm Top Z distance and 0mm Top interface spacing during printing operations, guaranteeing scar-free support surfaces. Enhances detail definition sharpness, improving overall appearance and structural integrity of final fabricated objects.
RFID Integration
Processing parameters embedded in RFID tags enable automatic configuration via AMS (Automatic Material System). Load-and-execute workflow eliminates manual parameter setup.

Processing Guidelines
Limonene Solubility: Support for ABS dissolves in limonene solvent. Observe proper usage protocols and safety procedures.
Emissions Warning: Pungent, unpleasant odors may emit during printing operations. Ensure printer enclosure integrity and adequate ventilation.
Interlayer Bonding: When interlayer strength critical, increase purge volume above 800mm³. Insufficient purging may compromise layer adhesion in primary model sections coplanar with support surfaces.
Peelable Support Enhancement: Increasing "initial layer speed" parameter generates more peelable support structures. However, this modification elevates warping risk probability.
Pre-Print Drying: Pre-use drying recommended for enhanced print quality. Drying specifications: 80°C, 4 hours (blast oven); 85-95°C, 6 hours (X1 Series heatbed). Reference: Filament drying documentation.
Advanced Support Configuration: For comprehensive support-related parameter adjustments, reference: Support documentation.
