The ABS prototype is one of the common prototype that accounting for about 80% of the total prototype fabrication.Because ABS is an engineering plastic, Its strength meets the needs of all kinds of prototype processing, For example, testing functions, polishing and coloring. ABS material is easy to polish and the surface is smooth and high after polishing. Since there are many processing methods for ABS prototype, So according to the actual situation to choose the appropriate way of processing.

      1.CNC machining: TheCNC machining is a good way If ABS prototype is large in size and relatively simple in structure, It has the advantages of low processing cost and high precision.If the ABS prototype is large in size with complicated structure, it is still recommended to use CNC machining, which only requires the parts to be split processing, Due to the good adhesion of ABS material, it has little influence on the strength even if it is made by split processing.

     2.3D printing: Since 3Dprinting is charged by weight,If ABS prototype is small in size with complicated structure, The 3D printing is a good processing method

     3.Vacuum casting:If you do small batch production for ABS prototype from which the Vacuum casting is more suitable way. The principle of vacuum casting is: First, make a original edition through 3D printing or CNC machining, and then use the processed original edition to make the silicone mold, and then copy the silicone mold. A silicone mold can be duplicated about 10 times. However, there are disadvantages of Vacuum casting that is easy deformation, low precision.

     Through understanding the above processing mode can be based on the actual situation to choose the appropriate processing mode.
