WHY DRY FILAMENTS
Enhances Print Quality
Hygroscopic filaments absorb moisture, resulting in bubbles, holes, and poor layer bonding. Drying it ensures a smooth finish and higher print quality.
Increases Print Success Rate
Moisture in filaments causes inconsistent flow, leading to under- or over-extrusion, stringing, and oozing. You can reduce print defects and failures by drying it.
Keeps Filaments Print Ready
Fully dried and optimally stored filaments save valuable time. Drying eliminates time spent during pre-printing steps so you can start printing right away.
Ensures Dimensional Accuracy
Wet filaments expand unevenly during a print, causing warping and inaccuracies. Drying it gives you precise prints by maintaining the material's original shape.
Improves Mechanical Strength
Wet filament prints are weaker and prone to cracking. Printing with dry filaments creates stronger layer adhesion and more durable prints.
WHY ANNEAL 3D PRINTED PARTS
Improves Mechanical Properties
Annealing 3D printed parts involves heating them to a controlled temperature and then slowly cooling them which rearranges the internal structure of the print. This helps release internal stresses that cause warping and distortion, ensuring the part retains its dimensional accuracy. The process also improves inter-layer bonding by fusing the layers more tightly, resulting in greater tensile strength, durability, and functionality.
Enhances Thermal Stability
Increase a part’s resistance to high temperatures by annealing. The process alters the material’s crystalline structure, making it less prone to deformation when exposed to heat. This improves the part's ability to maintain its mechanical properties in fluctuating or extreme temperature environments, ensuring long-term durability and performance in demanding applications.

Features
Your Printer’s Reliable Partner for Industrial Strength Prints
Two Chambers, Three Functions.
The 2-chamber system delivers optimal performance with three essential functions ensuring high-quality, reliable prints for even the toughest applications.
Dual Chamber Capacity
The DRYCON is equipped with two chambers (396mm X 455mm X 478mm each) that heat up to 180° C. They are both engineered to dry, store, and anneal parts to perfection.
The chambers house up to 16 spools of 1 kg, 8 spools of 4.5 kg, or 4 spools of 8 kg filament with custom temperature control. They can be set to different conditions to treat filaments with their ideal environment requirements. Both chambers operate independently, allowing for multiple functions simultaneously—such as drying or storing filaments in the upper chamber while annealing parts in the lower chamber.
Active Air Exchange Cycles
During the filament drying process, air is periodically exchanged to efficiently remove moisture by replacing humid air with fresh air. This air exchange system ensures consistent drying conditions throughout the process and is more energy efficient than other filament drying methods.

Annealing for Superior Parts
Both chambers heat to 180° C, ideal for annealing parts exposed to heat and mechanical stresses. Annealing significantly improves part accuracy, heat resistance, stiffness, dimensional stability, and other mechanical properties. The process also enhances the aesthetics of the part by giving it a smooth and even finish.
Streamlined DRYCON to 3D Printer Filament System
The DRYCON features four filament outlets that feed the material directly into your 3D printer. This eliminates the need for separate storage or manually transferring the filament to the 3D printer, making it a stream-lined drying, storage, and hassle-free printing process.
