PVA PROFILE FOR CURA

I’m trying to use my flex dually v2 and use esun pva for support. I looked into the profiles listed on luzbot no such luck. Does anyone have a profile already created so i can import to cura 2.6.69 or above. I tried to create a new material and cura will not let me do anything. Every time i click on the button nothing happens. Or does anyone have any other ideas.

TIA.

Thank you for bringing that to our attention. We will be incorporating that material profile into the next revision of Cura that comes out. For the time being, if you would like you can create a profile for PVA in Cura.

Here are the steps to create a custom profile.

  1. Load Cura make sure that in the ‘Material’ drop down menu on right side of screen you have your preferred filament selected.

  2. Make sure you have the detail profile you want to print with selected from the ‘Profile’ drop down menu directly below ‘Material’ menu (Your new profile will be set to whatever detail profile you selected so if you want to print using our standard detail of .25mm you will have to make sure this is selected before moving forward).

  3. Switch from ‘Recommended’ to ‘Custom’ settings if you are not already in the correct area by selecting the option for ‘Custom’ you can find this next to the area labled ‘Print Setup’.

  4. Make any and all adjustments to the settings that you need.

  5. Once changes have been made to the settings a star will appear in the drop down menu for ‘Profile’.

  6. Click the arrow on 'Profile" drop down menu and select option labeled ‘Create New Profile From Current Settings/Overrides’.

  7. This will bring up a new window in which you will be asked to name your new profile. We recommend labeling these something specific so they are easy to keep track of, but that is entirely up to you. You can then export the newly created profile from Cura, and import it into other materials that are using similar parameters for the profile drop down menu, without having to create a whole new profile.

  8. Once your new profile has been saved you can select it by first choosing the Material that you used to create the profile then in the ‘Profile’ drop down menu select the new option that will be available from this menu. This new profile should include all the setting adjustments you just made.

Here are the settings that are in the PVA material profile.
