PrimaSelect PVA+ profile????
In anticipation of getting the MMU, I bought two rolls of PrimaSelect PVA+ Soluble Support 500g from Prusa's site...
https://shop.prusa3d.com/en/special/169-primaselect-pva-soluble-support-500g.html
Tested and recommended as soluble supports for our Multi Material upgrade.
But I only see a profile in Slic3r for the Verbatim BVOH Soluble support filament.
Can I use the Verbatim pva profile with PrimaSelect pva?
If not will there be a separate profile created for PrimaSelect PVA?
Does anyone have experience printing with primaselect pva. Any tips or suggestions.

Re: PrimaSelect PVA+ profile????
i have both BVOH materials the Prima and Verbatim
just use the Verbatim for the prima and adjust as needed.
i used the material for the first time and was very disappointed in the performance of soluble filament.

I'm giving it a go as we speak on the palette 2 pro. I needed to make adjustments indeed. but in what direction?? who wants to trial and error expensive filament. seems to be working but i'll need to continue tweaking the profile.

Re: PrimaSelect PVA+ profile????
trying the pva as we speak. seems something is odd with the soluble material profile. I might try the normal profile but its working. purge block is all wrong.
I have a Prusa,therefore I research.
Re: PrimaSelect PVA+ profile????
pva default BVOH settings
mk3 optimal soluble setup.
wasn't very high BUT the model is in water now. hitting print one something else

Re: PrimaSelect PVA+ profile????
PrimaSelect had a profile for MMU1; I don't think it has been considered for MMU2 as BVOH was pushed by certain people 🙁
My experience of PVA is that it can be very problematic. It is very difficult to manufacture with consistent diameter and often goes way out of spec. The roll of eSun I tried to use on MMU1 would on occasion, not pass through the cooling tubes.
I ended up trying PrimaSelect which worked OK; I also have an unopened spool of Scaffold.
I did try BVOH on the MMU2, but it's characteristics changed significantly over the course of a 12 hour print, to the extent that it was unprintable at the end. However, that was during a humid period in the (very) hot summer.
Basically, I gave up with soluble supports 🙁

Re: PrimaSelect PVA+ profile????
well im taking 1 for the team. just ordered some PVOH.
but so far so good. kinda had to fight with it for the first few loads. but it seems fine now. I think I should run some proto pasta metals to score out some of the tubes 😀

Re: PrimaSelect PVA+ profile????
wow the mmu is so well tweaked. It's running this crappy gizmo dorks neon green crap that tormented me before I got my mmu
I have a Prusa,therefore I research.
Re: PrimaSelect PVA+ profile????
hey should pva cool all the way before removing? I swear it took some of my pei off. almost petGish. but maybe it will clean up
I have a Prusa,therefore I research.
Re: PrimaSelect PVA+ profile????
2nd pva print seems like a success havent dissolved it yet. Im 95% convinced 1st pva print could have been a success if i didnt have to adjust the primaselect pva profile. That stringy hair behind model is from octolapse moving print head quickly to take a shot - and also untuned pva settings.
@pjr guess i Got lucky. I'm still scared to try on mmu2 but I guess I must now..... What do u guys think of my drybox?

Well, as you know, I have had huge issues with MMU2 (until I changed the extruder body), so I may try again. However, the best thing to do is to cut off the amount you need and keep the spool in a dry bag.

Re: PrimaSelect PVA+ profile????
I've been playing with some Gizmo Dorks PVA I had laying around from a previous dual extruder clone. I tried the PVOH profile and it was a huge failure. I've had much better luck with the old MMU1 PVA profile.
Re: PrimaSelect PVA+ profile????
ok. Doesn't dissolve as quickly or as easily as i thought.
Also didnt need such a dense support.
Gonna try soluble interface only, next.

Re: PrimaSelect PVA+ profile????
Yeah, doesn't really dissolve so much as it just gets slimy. But the results are nice. Here's an upside down Benchy. With regular supports this would look terrible.
Re: PrimaSelect PVA+ profile????
When you get it tweaked in, can you post your profile info?
