Whats New about Digital ABS Plus
Digital ABS Plus is fabricated from RGD515 Plus and RGD535. Its designed to simulate standard ABS plastic by combining high-temperature resistance with toughness; however, Digital ABS materials uses PolyJet printers which have the ability to capture fine details in high resolution. Digital ABS plus is superior to Digital ABS as it has superior strength properties as well as a superior finish with smooth glossy surfaces. It also has high impact resistance properties and a shock absorption of 90 110 J/M.
The Digital ABS Plus materials new added durability and toughness mean it can now be used for all stages of rapid prototyping, from design verification to functional performance testing. Its new found strength means that Digital ABS plus is ideal for all types of jigs and fixtures, parts featuring drilled and inserted metal and components as well as short-run injection moulding tools.
Digital ABS Plus comes in two colours; Green and Ivory.
Can I use it on my Printer?
The Digital ABS Plus material can be used on the following printers:
o Connex 3
o Objet 1000/ 1000 plus
o Legacy Connex
