An item is created using a thermoplastic and a soluble support material. Material is extruded and built up layer by layer from the bottom up. FDM parts in ABS Plus may have threads and can be sanded, drilled, tapped, glued, painted and even chrome plated. Items built in ABS Plus are slightly flexible.
Items can be built with different density interiors Solid - a tight cross hatching Sparse High Density - a fine cross hatching of 0.5mm squares Sparse Low Density - an open cross hatching of 4mm squares The software automatically shells a solid area with a 2mm wall thickness and fills the remainder with the designated density.
