Spectrum Smart ABS deep black

Spectrum Smart ABS

Spectrum Smart ABS is an advanced filament that offers enhanced properties compared to standard ABS. This material is characterized by high impact resistance and relatively high stiffness. The "Smart" version brings improved processability, significantly reducing issues associated with additive manufacturing, such as lower shrinkage and reduced emissions of irritating volatile substances. The material maintains its properties even at temperatures down to -40°C.

Key Benefits

• Reduced shrinkage ratio
• Glossy print surface
• Lower printing temperature
• Increased flow rate

Key Properties

• High impact resistance and stiffness while maintaining relatively high dimensional accuracy
• High gloss of the outer surface
• Reduced deformation ratio (0.5-0.7%) compared to regular ABS
• HDT: 85°C
• Good inter-layer adhesion, especially when using a 3D printer with a heated chamber
• Low moisture absorption
• Easy post-processing (sanding, drilling, cutting)

Recommended Applications

Spectrum Smart ABS is ideal for producing covers, guards, and other impact-exposed objects. Thanks to the possibility of mechanical modifications, it is suitable for manufacturing installation aids such as handles, rulers, and gauges. It is also suitable for producing end-use parts, industrial design, tools, and custom components. Chemical treatments (acetone vapors) ensure extremely smooth surfaces of printed objects, which is ideal for industrial design and decorations.
