Creality Filament Drying Box 2.0

Whether having fun with PLA or printing serious with Nylon filaments, a dryer on hand will save you trouble on a rainy day. Some 3D filaments are extremely sensitive to humidity levels and moisture, causing issues with clogging and poor quality while printing. And other 3D filaments simply can get old. In a similar fashion to how some things go dry and stale, filament can slowly absorb moisture over time and become brittle. This is why it’s always a good idea to dry out filaments if they have been opened for longer than just a few weeks. The Creality Filament Dry Box 2.0 is your easy drying solution to have your filament in top shape every time you print.

Useful Features of the Creality Filament Dry Box 2.0:

Compatible with any 1kg roll of filament, the Creality Filament Dry Box 2.0 is similar to SunLu’s FilaDryer S2 in that they are both excellent tools for high-quality printing.

The Creality Filament Dry Box 2.0 offers these handy features:

• Dry While Printing – You can keep your filament roll in the Dry Box 2.0 while printing! This dryer doubles as a spool holder that feeds out your dry and moisture free filament through a carefully insulated silicone plug.
• 360° Heating – Special fans push hot-air all around your spool so that your filament dries evenly throughout. No wet spots can escape the dryer’s might.
• 45℃ to 65℃ heating – This temperature range is more than suitable to print easy with PLA, ABS, ASA, PETG, TPU, PP, PC, PA, and more.
• Real-time Monitoring – A display allows you to monitor your drying filament with a glance. See the temperature and humidity levels in real-time. You can also set a timer up to 24hours to fullly dry your filaments.

It’s nearly impossible to hide from humidity. Fortunately for us, filament drying boxes save us from throwing away old spools or precariously drying them out in a non-PID-control oven. 3D printing in Nylon, PETG and other highly hygroscopic materials, you may quickly realise they gather moisture surprisingly fast. Even spools of PLA can become affected substantially by slow moisture absorption over time.

Although Creality 3D have been working within the industry since 2014, their addition of the Creality CR-10 series is what really catapulted them to the front line of competition, as it offered substantially better quality compared to other 3D printers – while simultaneously reducing the cost and complexities of the machines.

The quality of Creality’s 3D Printers and accessories shows through in their market history, with the brand selling around 3000 printers in their first year on the market, followed by about 10,000 sales over the next year. Now, Creality easily sells around 30,000 or more 3D printers each year, with sales continuously rising as they bring out more models. These are impressive numbers when considering the fact that they entered the industry as unknown competitors, quickly rising through the ranks and now even competing with Wanhao and similar top brands.

If you are looking for excellent 3D Printers that offer affordability without compromising on quality, Creality 3D is certainly a brand that you should take note of. From the basic Creality Ender 2 all the way up to the large build volume Creality CR-10 S5, there are few other brands who are capable of offering such a refined package while still maintaining some of the most enticing prices in the industry.
