Up to 4× faster, hands-off

A magnetic rotor circulates water into every cavity, dissolving PVA up to 4× faster than motionless soaking and cutting operator time by up to 80%. Set 225 or 100 RPM by part fragility, press start, and walk away.

About this product

The UltiMaker PVA Removal Station automates support removal for dual-extrusion FFF prints. A magnetic rotor circulates water around the part to dissolve PVA supports up to 4× faster than soaking in a motionless container — with only a few minutes of operator time per print.

UltiMaker PVA Removal Station dissolving PVA supports up to 4x faster than motionless water
Up to 4× faster PVA removal versus dissolving in motionless water.

What the PVA Removal Station Does

PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) is a water-soluble support material printed alongside models in PLA, Tough PLA, Nylon, PETG or CPE on dual-extrusion systems. The UltiMaker PVA Removal Station dissolves that support automatically: load the part into the rinsing basket, press start, and collect a finished print — no manual scrubbing and minimal maintenance. It reduces operator time by up to 80% compared with hand-tended soaking.

Rotor-Powered Water Circulation

A magnetic rotor drives high-speed circulation that reaches into cavities and lattices motionless water never clears. Choose 225 RPM (normal) or 100 RPM (low) depending on part fragility; every two minutes the rotor reverses direction to push water evenly across the model. See full specifications below.

Prints Stay Safe and Submerged

The rinsing basket (200 × 230 × 165 mm) holds the print fully submerged in the 13.7-liter tank while dissolving, then lifts out for mess-free draining and removal — no reaching into solution.

Easy to Monitor

A transparent, illuminated tank lets you watch removal progress, and a saturation indicator shows when to refresh the water so dissolving stays fast.

Common questions

Don't see yours? Email [email protected] — NDA standard, typical reply within 4 hours.

Which printers and materials does the PVA Removal Station work with?
The UltiMaker PVA Removal Station works with any dual-extrusion FFF print that uses PVA support material — including the UltiMaker S-line and other printers running PLA, Tough PLA, Nylon, PETG or CPE alongside PVA. It is optimized for PLA with PVA support and also handles equivalent third-party water-soluble supports.
How much faster is it than dissolving PVA in a container of water?
Up to 4× faster. The PVA Removal Station uses a magnetic rotor to circulate water around the part, reaching cavities and lattices that motionless water cannot clear. The rotor reverses direction every two minutes so water is pushed evenly across the whole model, dissolving support in hours rather than overnight.
How much operator time does it need?
Only a few minutes per print. You load the part into the rinsing basket, press start, and collect the finished print when the cycle completes — the PVA Removal Station reduces operator time by up to 80% versus hand-tended soaking, and needs almost no maintenance between cycles.
What are the tank and basket dimensions?
The illuminated tank holds 13.7 liters (3.6 US gal) and the rinsing basket accepts parts up to 200 × 230 × 165 mm (7.8 × 9 × 6.4 in). A saturation indicator on the transparent tank shows when the water should be refreshed to keep dissolving fast.
Do I need to heat the water or add chemicals?
No. PVA is water-soluble, so the PVA Removal Station uses plain room-temperature water and rotor circulation — no heaters or solvents. Operate it in an ambient temperature of 15–32 °C (59–90 °F); power consumption is just 38 W.
