PC-ABS is a blend of polycarbonate and ABS, combining the toughness and heat resistance of PC with the easy processing of ABS. It’s widely used for durable prototypes, automotive parts, and electronic housings.
What printing conditions are required for INTAMSYS PC-ABS?
It needs a high-temperature extruder (≥260 °C), a heated bed (≥100 °C), and ideally a heated chamber to minimize warping and ensure strong layer adhesion.
What are the key advantages of INTAMSYS PC-ABS over standard ABS?
PC-ABS provides higher impact resistance, better heat tolerance, and improved dimensional stability compared to ABS alone.
What applications are best suited for INTAMSYS PC-ABS?
It’s well-suited for functional prototypes, automotive interiors, tool housings, enclosures, and parts requiring both strength and heat resistance.
Does INTAMSYS PC-ABS require special handling or storage?
Yes. Like many engineering filaments, PC-ABS is hygroscopic and should be stored in a dry box or sealed container. If moisture is absorbed, drying before printing is recommended to prevent poor surface quality or weak prints.
