PrintDry Filament Dryer PRO4
Advanced 3D printer filament dryer with real-time humidity monitoring, six temperature presets and direct feed-and-dry functionality for improved filament performance.
- Real-Time Humidity Monitoring – Monitor the relative humidity inside the dryer from below 15% up to 99% while your filament dries
- Six Temperature Presets – Select 35°C, 45°C, 55°C, 65°C, 75°C or 85°C depending on the filament being dried
- Up to 48-Hour Timer – Set extended drying cycles with automatic timer control for moisture-sensitive materials
- Dry & Feed Function – Feed 1.75mm or 3mm filament directly from the dryer to a compatible 3D printer while drying
- Larger PTC Heating Unit – The upgraded heating system is designed to reach target temperatures faster and provide more consistent heating
- Closed-Loop Temperature Control – Heating is automatically cycled according to the selected temperature
- Expandable Capacity – Additional chamber kits can be used to increase the number of spools that can be dried and fed
Moisture Control for 3D Printing Filament
Moisture absorbed by filament can affect the consistency and quality of 3D printing. The PrintDry Filament Dryer PRO4 uses controlled heat and airflow to help remove moisture from filament before and during printing.
The integrated humidity monitor provides real-time feedback, allowing users to see the relative humidity inside the drying chamber as the drying cycle progresses. PrintDry states that chamber humidity can fall from above 60% to below 15% in under five minutes during its testing conditions.
Six Temperature Settings
The PRO4 provides six preset drying temperatures: 35°C, 45°C, 55°C, 65°C, 75°C and 85°C. This range allows the dryer to be used with a broad selection of common 3D printing materials.
PrintDry recommends different drying temperatures and times depending on the filament material. Actual drying times can vary according to the material, additives, initial moisture content and surrounding temperature and humidity.
Dry While You Print
The PRO4 is designed to both dry and feed filament. A filament can be routed directly from the dryer to a compatible 3D printer while the drying process continues.
The system supports both 1.75mm and 3mm filament and is suitable for use with 3D printers where the filament can be fed from outside the printer enclosure.
Key Specifications
Heating & Temperature Control
The PRO4 uses an upgraded larger PTC heating unit and a revised heating control algorithm. Its closed-loop temperature control switches the heating unit on and off according to the selected temperature.
PrintDry notes that temperature distribution inside the dryer is not uniform. Temperature readings are taken close to the hot air vent, so temperatures can differ between locations inside the chamber.
Expandable Drying System
The PRO4 can be expanded with optional chamber accessories. An additional chamber kit can provide space for two more 1kg spools, allowing the system to serve multiple printers or dry additional filament at the same time.
Recommended Filament Drying
PrintDry's drying recommendations are based on stated test conditions including 50% ambient relative humidity, 20°C ambient temperature and a 500g filament spool. Actual drying times vary according to filament composition, moisture content and environmental conditions.
