Bed adhesion in 3D printing is a property (not a model type) that describes how well a print sticks to the build plate. An ABS 3D model is a print made from ABS—a strong, heat-resistant thermoplastic filament.
- **Bed adhesion focuses on print success**: Poor adhesion causes warping or lifting at the model’s base, ruining prints. It’s essential for any 3D print. - **ABS relies on bed adhesion**: ABS shrinks a lot when cooling, so it needs strong bed adhesion (e.g., heated beds at 90–110°C or PVA glue) to stay in place.
In short, bed adhesion is a critical print property, while ABS is a material that depends on good bed adhesion to print successfully.
