Additive Manufacturing (AM) technologies have been emerged as a fabricationmethod to obtain engineeringcomponents within a short span of time. Desktop 3D printing, also referred as additive layer manufacturing technologyis one of the powerful method of rapid prototyping (RP) technique that fabricates three dimensional engineeringcomponents. In this method, 3D digital CAD data is converted directly to a product. In the present investigation, ABS +hydrous magnesium silicate composite was considered as the starting material. Mechanical properties of ABS + hydrousmagnesium silicate composite material were evaluated. ASTM D638 and ASTM D760 standards were followed forcarrying out tensile and flexural tests, respectively. Samples with different layer thickness and printing speed wereprepared. Based on the experimental results, it is suggested that low printing speed, and low layer thickness has resultedmaximum tensile and flexural strength, as compared to all the other process parameters samples.
