What is ABS used for?
There are numerous applications for ABS. Among the most commonly familiar is focus a computer keyboard, power-tool housing, the plastic face guard on wall sockets (often times a PC/ABS blend), and LEGO toys.
ABS for 3D Printing and Prototype Development:
Creative Mechanisms uses the Fused Deposition Modeling 3D printing process over other “printing” technologies (such as SLA, SLS, SLM) because ABS parts are conveniently available. It is often chosen because it is a good middle-ground option for a huge number of applications.
ABS is easily machined, sanded, glued and painted. This will make it a great material for prototyping. You can also get good aesthetic finishes with ABS and it can also be colored relatively conveniently, not like some other plastics. This is a reason it is often used for enclosures (housing) that might have different textures or glossy surfaces.

Properties:
1.Stable shrinkage, good dimensional stability, low warpage
2.Good processability
3.Balance mechanical properties
4.Good exterior, no need to be plated, sprayed
5.Flame resistant

Applications of the ABS plastic resin

1. Housing Material

Widely used in the production of housings for telephones, mobile phones, copiers, fax machines, toys and kitchenware.

2. Auto Parts

The specific items include steering wheel, instrument panel, fan blades, fenders, handles and armrests.

3. Machinery Parts

ABS can be used to produce gears, pump impellers, bearings, handles, tubing, fittings, battery compartments and power tool housings.
