Introduction
In the world of 3D printing, the quality of the filament plays a decisive role in the final result. The PolyDryer sets new standards in filament drying and storage. This modular drying box with a removable, active dryer base has been designed to make filament handling and care not only more efficient, but also more aesthetically pleasing.
Modular design for maximum flexibility
The basics of the PolyDryer system
The PolyDryer consists of a simple, sealed drying box and a removable, active dryer base. This modular approach allows users to switch the dryer base between different boxes as required, allowing for individual and flexible use. Each box is equipped with a desiccant holder and a humidity indicator, allowing for continuous monitoring and control of storage conditions.
Advantages of modularity
- Adaptability: users can switch the dryer foot between boxes as required.
- Expandability: Additional boxes can be added at any time to increase storage capacity.
- Cost-effectiveness: Modularity means you can invest in additional boxes without having to buy more drying units.
Powerful drying technology
Effective moisture control
The PolyDryer uses advanced drying technology to protect the filament from moisture that could affect print quality. The effective sealing of the box ensures that no moisture can penetrate. Smoke tests have shown that the PolyDryer's seals are so effective that the drying box inflates without losing the seal.
Optimum storage conditions for different filament types
The drying box is designed for filament diameters of 1.75 mm and 2.85 mm and can hold spools of up to one kilogram. This ensures that most filament types available on the market can be stored safely and effectively.
Sustainable and user-oriented development
Community-based innovation
Polymaker has developed the PolyDryer in close collaboration with its community. Ideas were collected and implemented through consultations via the company's Discord channel. This collaborative approach has not only resulted in a product that reflects the needs of the users, but also strengthens the bond with the community.
Extensions through 3D printable add-ons
On the Polymaker product page, it is announced that 3D printable add-ons will soon be available for the PolyDryer. These add-ons will offer additional functions for hanging or connecting the boxes, which will further increase user-friendliness and functionality.
Conclusion
The PolyDryer is an innovative solution in the field of filament drying and storage. With its modular design, effective drying technology and the involvement of the community in the development process, the PolyDryer offers a future-proof option for anyone working in the 3D printing sector. The planned expandability with 3D-printable add-ons will establish it as an indispensable tool in the world of 3D printing.
