What does Drywise dryer do?

The Drywise filament dryer takes out the guesswork when 3D printing hygroscopic materials. The Drywise needs about 50 minutes to pre-treat your filament and bring it to the best printing conditions before 3D printing can start. An in-line drying design assures that long 3D prints will always be printed with consistent material dried to best printing conditions.

Why is filament drying important?

1

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.


2

The presence of moisture in filaments can cause visible artefacts during printing, including: poor surface finish, stringing and oozing.


3

Moisture in filaments can potentially cause print failure and affect the mechanical properties of the printed part.


4

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

Key Features 

Image Product

Fast
An in-line design dries only the section of filament that is 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.

More Benefits of the Drywise Filament Dryer.

As an active drying in-line system, the Drywise dryer only dries that part of the filament used for printing, during the 3D printing process as opposed to drying the whole spool. Conventional methods can take many hours to dry wet filament and can damage the filament spool and/or the filament itself. Further more once out of the oven the filament will restart absorbing moisture immediately.

The filament drying process is pre-calibrated and tailored for every material type, taking out the guesswork required when using traditional drying methods.

What did they say about Drywise

I am very impressed at how easy Drywise makes it to create engineering parts with materials that are hygroscopic. Typically, these materials are difficult to print, require extensive drying prior to printing, and in some cases even degrade on the time scale that printing a part takes, so they have to be stored in anhydrous circumstances during printing. All this is a hassle. With Drywise, it has become as simple as loading the filament, and after the pre-heat pre-dry cycle, just start printing with a guaranteed top conditioned filament. Therefore, it’s no surprise that I would wholeheartedly recommend using Drywise for any hygroscopic filament, such as many polyamides / nylons. Drywise has been certified as a third party hardware to work well with Ultimaker 3D printers.

The project for launching new circular PA6 material had hit a roadblock. The material was ready but due to its very high moisture sensitivity and the lack of technology enabling direct in-line drying, it had to be placed on hold. Drywise is the solution we were waiting for to enable this material, allowing it to be reliably 3D printed every time and finally unlocking the circular economy to Additive Manufacturing.

Drywise provides an excellent on-demand solution to the elimination of moisture absorption in 3D printing filament, which can have such a detrimental effect on those higher strength parts intended for demanding applications. When the material being used has been adversely affected by moisture absorption the in-line filament drying carried out during printing is capable of delivering a successful part without the need for any lengthy material pre-conditioning.

Using Drywise has been a game changer for our 3D printing process. As a prototyping manager at Toly Products in Malta, I have tested numerous methods to improve the quality of our nylon 3D prints, but none have worked as well as Drywise. The humidity issues we faced in our industrial setting were greatly reduced, and we were able to achieve prints of superior quality with ease. I highly recommend Drywise to anyone looking to improve their 3D printing process and achieve exceptional results.

Ask Us Questions

Why must I keep my 3D printing filament dry?

A large majority of 3D printing plastics absorb moisture from the surrounding air which can significantly impact the quality of your 3D prints. These plastics are known as hygroscopic. As the filament is extruded, moisture absorbed in the plastic will rapidly expand, boil and rupture, forming bubbles in the extruded plastic. These bubbles can have a significant impact on the surface quality, layer adhesion and mechanical performance of your 3D printed parts. To avoid this, we recommend using Drywise in-line filament dryer.

How does your product work? 

3D printing plastics are prone to take in ambient moisture, which results in reduced print quality. Our dryer pre-treats the filament to best printing conditions.

Where is Drywise based?

We are solely an online brand, but we operate out of Malta.  

How long will it take me to get my order?  

Processing for orders can take 2 to 5 days. Then EU Shipping takes 1 week. We are currently only accepting pre-orders though. We will start shipping our current orders in Q2 2022.
