Description
Meet the DW14 Desiccant Dryer — a smart dehumidifying dryer made especially for drying plastics before they’re turned into filament.
Why it matters:
Moisture in plastic ruins filament quality—causing bubbles, weakening, or bad prints. The DW14 helps prevent that by drying the plastic well before extrusion.
How DW14 Desiccant Dryer works:
- Inside is a honeycomb wheel coated with molecular sieve material. That wheel spins, passing moist air through drying and regeneration zones.
- There are three main parts:
1. Drying section: pulls moisture out of the air going toward plastic hopper
2. Regeneration section: reheats a part of the wheel to remove absorbed moisture
3. Cooling section: cools it again so it’s ready to dry more air
Features of DW14 Desiccant Dryer you’ll love:
- Programmable timer: you can schedule drying to start before production.
- Material presets: built-in settings for common plastics like PLA, ABS, PETG. You can also save your own recipes.
- Protection safeguards: it watches the return air temp and load, so it won’t over-dry or damage plastics.
- Energy-efficient: It can save up to 40% energy compared to older twin-tower dryers.
- No external lines needed: Works without compressed air or cooling water hookups.
- Modular design: The dryer is easy to maintain. Tool-free access lets you clean or swap parts.
