PVA Filament is used as a support material that dissolves in water

PVA Filament absorbs water from the air very quickly - even on longer prints. We strongly recommend printing with this filament while it is in an enclosed (dry) container, such as the PolyBox

PVA is a dissolvable support material for PLA, TPU, Nylon and PVB (eg: PolySmooth) materials

Key things to know when using Raise PVA
1. You must not let the PVA get above 15% humidity. Preferably store at 10%. This is vertually impossible without something like a polybox in Australia (where Sydney gets an average of 86% humidity and the whole east coast is almost always above 50%), and even then you will need to add extra silica to get to that level.

2. Some optical filament sensors see through PVA and you may need to run PVA in the left intead of right extruder for example

3. You need to adjust your Raise profile to select the extruder to print the raft and support in PVA. We find that printing the raft in PVA is better for adhesion of the support to the raft.

4. Reduce Raft to model gap to 0.1 or close to that.
