eSun ABS+ High Speed Filament – 1.75mm Fire Engine Red

1kg of Fire Engine Red ABS+ High Speed Filament, optimised for fast high-flow prints of excellent durability, strength, and heat resistance with enhanced layer adhesion.

 

When it comes to projects where functionality and strength are needed, ABS is often the first filament we reach for printing tough models up to the task. However, ABS is considered an advanced and sometimes difficult polymer. eSun ABS+ is a filament formulation that was designed with the intention of addressing many of the common problems that Makers would face when printing with standard ABS. While it does typically require higher temperature beds and extruders, ABS+ is composed of extra additives for extra strength and stability when printing. Compared to standard ABS plastic, ABS+ warps far less, with a much greater first-layer adhesion. But what if you need to print ABS+ at high speeds?

eSun ABS+ is fantastic for functional prints with tough mechanical strength, and now their new range offers an optimised ABS+ High Speed Filament! When 3D printing at speeds higher than 250mm/s, normal filaments might struggle to keep up and become clogged within the nozzle. That’s why eSun has specialised many of their popular PLA, ABS, and PETG ranges into high-speed filaments for ultra-flow and smoothness. eSun’s new ABS+ High Speed Filament lets you turn out functional prints at whopping speeds. Print up to 300mm/s with amazing smoothness on every layer. With eSun’s specialised high-speed filaments, you can enjoy the printing performance of high-speed printers like the Creality K1 without compromising on the quality of your prints. Enjoy rapid prototyping and beautiful models.

This Fire Engine Red ABS+ High Speed Filament is one of a wide range of colourful options to print your strong, high-speed projects. Another key benefit of ABS+ is that it offers a unique, beautiful finish, which is often compared to a smooth nylon appearance. It is less opaque than typical ABS, and when polished, it can actually become moderately transparent. These fantastic advantages, as well as improved strength and flexibility, are what make ABS+ filament a good investment for all 3D Makers. Print for both functionality and aesthetics with eSun ABS+, having great-looking parts that still withstand the test of time, taking hard knocks, rough scrapes, impacts, and sheering forces without breaking.

Helpful Tips for Printing with ABS Filament:

As many experienced 3D Makers will know, ABS filament is often regarded as the “higher-grade” filament when compared to PLA, as it is substantially stronger and more durable than PLA but can also be quite a lot more difficult to print with. However, this doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s impossible to print with, and once you’ve got your settings dialled in just right, it can be just as easy as any other filament. It simply requires more practice and patience to get right, and of course, because of the higher temperatures required, it’s often recommended to get an enclosure of some kind to prevent the plastic from cooling too rapidly.

With this in mind, and to make your life as a 3D Maker a lot easier than if you were just going in blind, we’ve taken all of our knowledge and experience with this polymer and refined it down to three simple tips, which should help you get off to a running start, or at least assist in getting your settings sorted, from which point you can perfect your settings according to your particular setup:

  • ABS Printing Tips – Controlled Printing Environment: Although we all want to print parts that are both easy to produce and highly durable in real-world applications, we often can’t have the best of both worlds, and ABS is a prime example of that, offering high levels of durability and resistance but requiring stricter and arguably more difficult printing parameters. This is why we always recommend a good-quality enclosure for your 3D printer for printing ABS, as this will give you even better control over these parameters and will help prevent uncontrollable external forces from affecting the print while it’s being produced. With that said, some of the extra parameters that are important to keep in mind are that you want to keep the filament nice and toasty without cooling it down too quickly. This will prevent differential cooling of the part, which in turn would cause warping as some parts cool faster than others, and will help to ensure strong adhesion between layers, leading to a great print that doesn’t layer-separate or present weaknesses in various parts of the print.
  • ABS Printing Tips – Benchmarks Save Time & Troubles: As you can probably tell by now, printing with ABS is quite a bit trickier than many of the other popular filaments we stock, and this is why we will always recommend “dialling in” your 3D printer with calibration or benchmarking prints. And while some may argue that calibration prints are a waste of filament, we’ve actually found the opposite to be true, as calibration prints typically use minimal amounts of filament while greatly assisting with rapidly calibrating the printer for a higher level of quality. This can save you substantial amounts of wasted filament from failed prints while only using a small amount of filament to get it all calibrated, resulting in saved time, saved money, and (most importantly) saved filament to use for your next exciting project!
  • ABS Printing Tips – Tiny Adjustments Can Make a Big Difference: Finally, we often see beginners go through the common problem of overshooting their changes and modifications to settings, and instead of making tiny changes at a time, they tend to try a few different changes, only to suddenly face an entirely new problem altogether. And this is why we always recommend making very small changes, and preferably only one at a time. This way, you can know precisely what is helping, what might be hindering, and how to better fine-tune settings in the future. Conversely, if you make a lot of different changes all at once, even if they fix the problem you were having, you may never know which of those changes helped or hindered or how they affected the overall quality. As such, small changes help you pinpoint problems with precision, ensuring that if you ever face that problem again, you will know exactly which settings to tweak and how much to tweak them by to get your print quality back to the level that you’re happy with.

Fortunately, although ABS is more difficult to print with than many other options, with the above three tips, you already have a great place to start from, and of course you should never be scared to do further research too. Additionally, consider getting involved in discussions and asking questions in online communities. You may be surprised at just how helpful and friendly the SA 3D Maker community can be, and there are always great people eager to help others, often just waiting for an opportunity to do so.
