Drywise dryer
As an in-line system, the drywise dryer only dries the part of the filament used for printing, during the 3D printing process as opposed to drying the whole spool. Conventional methods can take up to 48 hours to dry wet filament and can damage the filament spool and/or the filament itself. The filament drying process is pre-calibrated and tailored for every material type, taking out the guesswork required when using traditional drying methods.
Why is filament drying important?
Hygroscopic FDM filaments tend to absorb significant amounts of moisture from the environment over the course of a few days. Some materials cannot be printed out of the box due to high moisture levels already present in the material. The presence of moisture in filaments can cause visible artefacts during printing, including poor surface finish, stringing, and oozing. Moisture in filaments can potentially cause print failure and potentially affect the mechanical properties of the printed part. As a result, moisture sensitive materials need to be dried prior to printing, however without special storage or pre -treatment the print quality can still degrade noticeably, especially during the course of a longer print.
Drywise Key Features
- Fast: An in-line design dries only the section of filament that os 3D printed, reducing the amount of work needed.
- Intelligent: Smart sensors help to dry filament to the best 3D printing condition, avoiding overheating and over drying.
- User friendly: A user friendly UI guides the user all the way. Exchangeable and rechargeable desiccant. Cartridges will eliminate down time.
- Safe: Smart sensors detect idle moments and switch off heaters to ensure safety.
- Upgradable: The list of certified filaments with calibrated settings is constantly growing.
Available for 1.75 & 2.85 mm
