Description
Summary Ultimaker PVA is at the heart of our market-leading dual extrusion 3D printing experience. Reliable adhesion to PLA, Tough PLA, CPE, and Nylon Non-toxic formula dissolves in regular tap water which can be disposed of safely 100% biodegradable with no hazardous by-products Good thermal stability gives better degradation resistance compared to other PVA filaments Properties Melting temperature 163 ºC Water-soluble support material Dissolves in ordinary tap water Applications Parts with complex geometries and internal cavities Concept models Molds Compatibility Ultimaker PVA is officially supported by Ultimaker S5, Ultimaker S3, and Ultimaker 3 series 3D printers, using a BB print core. It is supported for dual extrusion with: Ultimaker PLA Ultimaker Tough PLA Ultimaker PETG Ultimaker Nylon Ultimaker CPE Get smoother surface details and complex geometries Unlike supports printed with build material, PVA 3D printing support structures reduce the chance of scraping and cutting marks on detailed surfaces. Orient prints for maximum optimization Preparing a print with PVA gives you the freedom to orient your model in any way possible to customize its strength or aesthetic properties. Endless possibilities for mechanical parts Multi-component applications such as ball bearings, ball and socket joints, and caged gear mechanisms can be 3D printed as a complete assembly in a single run.
