Disclaimer:

"This product is being renamed from PolyLite™ Galaxy ABS to Polymaker™ Galaxy ABS.

PolyLite™ ABS is made with a specialty bulk-polymerized ABS resin, which has significantly lower volatile content compared to traditional ABS resins. It delivers excellent printing quality with minimal odor during printing.

Which 3D printer can print PolyLite™ ABS?

Depending on the size of the models you are trying to print, PolyLite™ ABS can required enclosed 3D printer, or even actively heated chamber.

In general a non-enclosed 3D printer with 90˚C bed temperature and 260˚C printing temperature can handle models smaller than fist size. For bigger prints you will required an enclosed 3D printer (~40-50˚C), for models bigger than ~15-20cm in any direction, it will require an actively heated chamber (~70˚C+).

Using proper bed adhesion can also help printing larger parts without deformation/warping issue.

We can recommend Magigoo or BuildTak as adhesive and bed surface options.
