3D Printing is a technological process for the creation of tridimensional solid objects, starting from a digital file. The object is created by overlapping layers of an extruded material; each one of those layers can be conceived as a transverse horizontal section of the final object. 3D printing allows to produce complex shapes using less material if compared to traditional production methods.
The material adopted to print the 3D object is commonly known as plastic, however we use a plastic material called ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) in spool wrapped filaments. We chose this material because of its outstanding resistance and hardness.
It is perfect for 3D Printing because it is solid at room temperature, and melts at about 100 °C.
