About WaterWorks Soluble
Concentrate
™
WaterWorks
in combination with Stratasys' soluble support materials
dissolves temporary support structures with a water based solution, rather
than manually removing support material or using solvents to clean parts.
Stratasys software automatically
creates any needed support structures
to build specific parts. When
applicable, WaterWorks provides the
final step allowing the building of
complex geometries and fully
functional assemblies in a single build.
Soluble support materials are dissolved
in a water based solution resulting in a
part with a smooth surface finish and
fine details intact.
Some parts have support materials that
are hard to remove (e.g., parts with
thin, deep channels) that result in longer dissolving times. Some parts have
support material that cannot be removed (e.g., hollow parts with non-
accessible interiors).
