Cura saying 'Not Supported' when I load Breakaway

Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong? This is my first time trying to use the Ultimaker brand breakaway material with my Ultimaker s3. I have loaded the material into the machine, no problem. The issue comes when I try to load a model into the Cura software, and update material settings, but it says "Not supported"? Is it something I am doing with my model, the material, or Cura? I am trying to print a custom pint glass. Any ideas? Thanks!

    Which print cores do you have it set up for? It only works with AA 0.4

    Hi,

     

    simple rule of thumb:

    BB = only PVA

    AA = everything else except abrasives

    CC red = abrasives

     

    If you refer to the material section at ultimaker.com, in "compatibility" each compatible printcore and nozzle size is listed.

     

    Regards

    Thanks @Enigma_M4! Just got my s3 in the mail last Wed and feel like the package didn't come with very much product information included; was hoping there would be more documents in there, at least a usb loaded with a user manual, or something that would have tables with this information in it. At least for Ultimaker brand materials.

    @maht Do you have a reference that I could access for which print core to use with which materials? This could really back me up in the future as I continue to broaden my uses with the s3!

    Yeah sure, take a look over here https://support.ultimaker.com/hc/en-us/articles/360012058219-How-to-print-with-Ultimaker-Breakaway

    @maht do you know of any charts or tables I can find online that visualize all of the information for all the materials the s3 is capable with; almost like a tap & die hole sizing chart, but with the different materials listed with compatible print cores, and common uses and strengths of the materials?

    None that I'm aware of but it's a good suggestion, I'll pass it on.

    Thanks. I just feel like something like that would do well hung on the wall behind my printer.

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
