In this video, I compare three different ABS materials and printing approaches:
- Stratasys ABS-M30 printed on a Stratasys industrial 3D printer
- Stratasys ABS+ P430 printed on a Bambu Lab H2D
- Bambu Lab ABS printed on a Bambu Lab H2D
Industrial 3D printers are often associated with superior part quality and performance, but how much of an advantage do they really offer? To find out, I tested tensile strength, layer adhesion, bending strength, impact resistance, heat resistance, creep behavior, and several practical load tests.
The results were not always what I expected.
I used paid Stratasys 3D printing services provided by Varinex (official site: https://www.varinex.hu/ ). The services were fully paid.
