BigRep Launches DRYCON Filament Dryer for Industrial-Strength Parts - Engineering.com

Industry News

DRYCON is designed to maximize filament performance for technical, flexible, and high-temperature materials.

BERLIN, Germany, Oct 15, 2024 – BigRep announced their latest product – the DRYCON, the only machine with dual chamber capacity that does three things at once: dry, store, and anneal. It is positioned as the perfect partner for industrial 3D printers by delivering superior filament care and high-quality parts.

A solution to maximize a filament’s performance, DRYCON is made for technical, flexible, and high-temperature materials. It features a large-build volume BigRep is known for, with dual chambers that dry and store up to 36 kg of filaments in custom conditions. The chambers heat up to 180°C, which is perfect for annealing 3D-printed parts to give them industrial-grade strength.

The DRYCON will be available across EMEA starting today on the BigRep website and globally in early 2025.

The DRYCON ensures hygroscopic filaments perform at their best by creating optimal conditions that enhance print quality, minimize extrusion problems, and improve the overall mechanical strength of a part. With it, users can achieve repeatable print quality and lower production cost by minimizing print defects and failures.

The DRYCON is designed to deliver consistent filament conditions for better and repeatable print quality, lower costs per part, and enhance a part’s strength and durability.
