3D printing filaments like PLA, ABS, PETG, Nylon, TPU, and PVA are hydroscopic, they absorb moisturefrom the air, affecting their printability, strength, and surface quality. This results in print failures, weakparts, nozzle clogs, and poor surface quality. Proper drying and storage are crucial for consistent, high-quality 3D prints.

Moisturized filament can severely disrupt 3D printing by causing the plastic to bubble and pop as the absorbed water turns to steam during extrusion, leading to inconsistent flow, weak layer bonding, poor surface finish, and even mechanical issues like skipped steps or layer shifting. These defects not only reduce print quality but also increase the chances of failed prints and wasted material. A Weavum filament dryer box addresses these problems by gently heating and actively dehumidifying the filament before and during printing, removing the moisture that causes instability in the melt. By keeping the filament dry and stable, the dryer box ensures smoother extrusion, stronger layers, and more reliable, high-quality prints every time.
