UltiMaker PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) is a leading water-soluble support material for multi-extrusion 3D printing. It offers you freedom and convenience: to design complex model geometries that require supports, which dissolve away in tap water.
Where to buyUnlike supports printed with build material, PVA 3D printing support structures reduce the chance of scraping and cutting marks on detailed surfaces.
Preparing a print with PVA gives you the freedom to orient your model in any way possible to customize its strength or aesthetic properties.
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.
Precision engineered with a magnetic rotor and adjustable speed settings, just add water to dissolve PVA supports up to four times faster compared with motionless water – ensuring faster design iterations with minimal operator time.
