Filament drying

Track filament drying dates and roll history

Moist filament can reduce print quality. A drying history helps you see when a roll was last dried and whether it should be checked before use.

Why track filament drying?

Many filament materials can absorb moisture over time. Tracking drying dates gives you a better overview of which rolls may need attention before use.

  • See when a roll was last dried.
  • Combine drying history with material and remaining weight.
  • Plan better before important prints.

Useful for several filament materials

Drying can be especially relevant for materials such as PETG, TPU, nylon and other filaments where moisture can affect the result.

  • Track rolls stored in dry boxes.
  • See history directly on the roll.
  • Use QR labels for quick access.
