CPE and ABS do not adhere well to PVA and may not yield good results. Under the Print Set-Up section on the right hand side, choose "Print support using PVA." It is also helpful to turn on "Print Helper Parts" to assist with build plate adhesion. Please note, at this time, only PLA and Nylon are supported combinations with PVA. Step 2-Select your main print material and your support material from the dropdown menus (Print core & Material) on the right hand side of Cura. For this object, a horizontal orientation with PVA supports should yield the best results. Step 1-Load your STL file in Cura and orient your object using the rotation tool on the left hand side of the screen. Make sure that the correct printer type is selected in the Settings -> Printer menu. To slice a print with a regular material in one Core and dissolvable support material in the other Core, please follow the following steps. The photos below have the Star Trek Enterprise model by Darren Watson as an example. Select your quality settings, infill choice, and choose whether you want supports or additional adhesion, and you're ready to save the file and print! AA cores should be used with all other materials (ABS, CPE, Nylon, and PLA). The BB Core should only be selected if printing with PVA. If you need to change the materials for either Print Core, select the Core from the tabs in the photo and use the drop down menu to select your Print Core and Material types. Step 5-You now have a dual extrusion model that can be printed. Then, right click to make the dialogue box below appear. Step 4-Select both models at once by holding down the shift key and selecting them so that both models are highlighted. Step 3-Next, select the STL file you want to use for Print Core 2, and choose Print Core 2 from the drop down menu under "Print model with". Don't worry if a different material (ABS, PVA, etc.) is currently listed for Print Core 1. Step 2-Select the model you want to use for Print Core 1, and then on the "Print model with" menu on the center left hand side of the screen, choose Print Core 1 from the drop down menu.
Make sure that under the Settings -> Printer menu, you have selected Ultimaker 3 or Ultimaker 3 Extended to match your machine. Step 1-Load both of your files into Cura. The file pictured below is available at YouMagine. Here's a collection of some dual extrusion files available for download. You can also find ready made dual extrusion prints on YouMagine or Thingiverse.
You can separate files using other programs like MeshMixer, SpaceClaim, or Autodesk for example. There's no way to separate a single STL file into two parts in Cura. To print in 2 colors, you need 2 STL files that have been designed to fit together for dual extrusion. Updated screenshots from Cura 2.7 will appear soon. Please note these screenshots are from Cura 2.4.
