Functional Testing
Dimension printers create models of ABS plastic that are tough enough to be used as working parts – other 3D printers can’t do that. That enables you to test form, fit and function - and as many design iterations as you need - right from your desktop.
Compared to models produced with photo chemicals, wax or other forms of 3D printing, Dimension’s ABS prototypes provide a higher level of precision. Pieces actually snap or fit together. ABS allows you to build durable and functional prototypes that can withstand rigorous testing and won't warp, shrink or absorb moisture.
ABS models can be drilled, tapped, sanded and painted. ABS is the most commonly used plastic in manufacturing today, used in cell phones, television sets, and the majority of car interiors.
