The drying box could become an essential accessory for most 3D printing users in 2025.
For a long time, 3D printer users have witnessed many cases of printing failures due to wet consumables. Moisture in consumables will seriously affect the quality of FDM printing, especially some consumables that absorb water easily. In order to solve this problem, professional consumables manufacturer Sanlu has developed a series of drying boxes, aiming to effectively solve the problem of moisture in consumables and ensure the smooth running of the printing process.
Over the past four years, SUNLU Sanlu has successively launched a variety of drying ovens, including FilaDryer S1, FilaDryer S2, FilaDryer S1 Plus and FilaDryer S4. These products have been widely praised for their excellent performance and reliable drying effect. .
Today, SUNLU Sanlu once again launched a new series of E products. FilaDryer E2 is a new solution specially designed for engineering plastics users. It integrates drying and quenching functions and can efficiently handle 3 high-performance 3D printing materials.
FilaDryer E2 stands out for its maximum drying temperature of 110°C, making it the first product in the industry to cross the 80°C threshold. This feature makes it an ideal choice for processing technical materials such as PA and PC which are extremely sensitive to moisture. For example, PA yarn can be completely dried in 2-3 hours at 90°C, greatly improving work efficiency. With a simple, user-friendly design, the E2 is equipped with a one-touch drying function that automatically adjusts to the best settings for different types of consumables, further improving ease of use.
The FilaDryer E2 is more than just a drying oven for filaments, it is a powerful tool for annealing finished 3D printed parts. As the first filament dryer supporting technical print annealing, the FilaDryer E2 effectively eliminates residual stress through consistent heat treatment, significantly improving mechanical strength and stability. This feature is particularly important for high-performance materials such as PA and PC, which are particularly suitable for components subject to high loads, such as drone parts and screw connections. Users can flexibly adjust annealing time and temperature based on specific project needs to ensure the best results every time.
Additionally, the FilaDryer E2’s sealed and insulated design further optimizes drying performance. Thanks to the double-chamber insulation structure, E2 can effectively retain internal heat while blocking external moisture, ensuring the stability and efficiency of the drying process. Its combination of silicone seal, magnetic seal and integrated silicone cap completely eliminates the risk of moisture reabsorption, maintaining the filament in optimal condition over time, guaranteeing ideal results with every print.
The internal space of the FilaDryer E2 can accommodate 2 spools of 1 kg filament or one 3 kg spool and is equipped with an intelligent protection system, including temperature cut-off and the use of flame-retardant materials, to ensure safety during operation. At the same time, the double-insulated design ensures that even if the internal temperature of the device exceeds 100°C, the external temperature will always remain below 60°C.
