A comparison of the flexural properties of PLA and ABS printed parts

The additive manufacturing (AM) technique produces three-dimensional objects by stacking successive layers of material. Fused deposition modelling, abbreviated FDM for convenience, is an additive manufacturing (AM) technique. Using FDM, objects are c...
