Dehumidifying Cabinets
Store and protect 3D printer filaments, optical equipment, and other sensitive material in a humidity-controlled environment. Also known as dry boxes and desiccator cabinets, these cabinets prevent moisture-sensitive 3D printer filaments, such as nylon, ABS, and polycarbonate, from becoming brittle, discolored, or broken. They also keep sensitive electrical and optical equipment, such as microscopes and lenses, free from mold and fungus. Their moisture-absorbing desiccants recharge automatically, so you don't have to remember to charge them yourself or worry about the humidity rising unintentionally.
Standard cabinets are sized to store small equipment, such as flasks and lenses, as well as small filament spools. The desiccants recharge every 20 minutes to keep relative humidity below 30%. Although you cannot set the humidity to a specific level, a humidity meter on the door lets you check the reading.
Designed with 3D printing in mind, cabinets with filament feed ports are large enough to hold up to four 12"-dia. filament spools. They also have four filament feed ports, so you can keep filament dry while still feeding a printer, ensuring the filament doesn't go bad in the middle of a longer job. These cabinets can lower relative humidity to less than 20%; set and monitor the level using the analog display.
