Thats a lot of money per active spool… Nice design though.

That looks great! I’d love to get one, but I couldn’t find how this drys. Is it a heated dryer, and if so, what’s the maximum temperature? Looking forward to trying this out.

</div>

Is there any difference between the normal polydryer and the snapdryer?  
Some Kind of Integration with the can bus or something like that?  
In other words: why is it a “corporation”? Isnt it just a relabel of a current product? Am I missing something?  
The polydryer is a solid product, but I would expect more… 🤷🏼‍♂️

</div>

It’s a single black box with a own power supply, this means there is no integration into canbus or any other machine function.

It heats up to 75°C if I remember correctly.  
Here are some unboxing pictures:

Its smart to use a sealed (dry) box for storing and if needed you could dry it by unsealing and sitting it on the top of the heating module.

@xchrisd, there are older reviews of the polydryer like here: ([https://youtu.be/D\_pnPikeYVQ](https://youtu.be/D_pnPikeYVQ) - sorry in german).  
So what is the news for the snapdryer? Is it the same?

The rumor about a filament dryer is as old as my forum account. And now comes a product that already exists. I’m kind of disappointed.

Polydryer is sitting at $80. Let the price war begin 🙂

Very cool. This will save my rolls of filament. I’ve thrown some away in the past due to being too brittle. Considering the price of the Polydryer, getting the Snapmaker branded version for $55 is good. I’ll probably get one or two. Keep the collaborations coming, maybe try to work with a 3D scanning company in the future.

Additional to the dryer and storage box are a few items for the fitting to the singleextruder (dualextruder not sure).  
Well, the color is different to the stock one.

I hope that’s not the only temperature. It’s too high for PLA and PETG in my experience. I’m hoping it’s more like 60ºC.

I’ll be curious to see how expensive extra boxes will be.

There are three temperature steps on the polydryer. There is a Matrix attached on the snapmaker Shop listing which Level you should use for which filament.

It doesn’t read in temperatures, it has “power levels” of 1-3. However, roughly power level 1 is 50C, 2 is 60C, and 3 is 70C.

It has couple of points where it measures the temps. One at the radiator to catch thermal runaway. And other thermocouple sits on the exhaust to measure hot air. It just doesn’t display the values of it.

 ![img_v3_02g3_c4905459-51c7-498e-953b-db6fc43b28bh](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/snapmaker/original/3X/8/3/83db1c99be620c61c7187fd3534fa0bfad27b829.jpeg)

Thermal runaway is managed by a fuse and it will cut the power if the radiator heats up to around 140C. Pic below shows 121.6C because I was a bit slow to take a picture. It stopped heating somewhere around 134C.

 ![img_v3_02g3_ad122ac5-93b0-4516-a070-ec1284bae14h](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/snapmaker/original/3X/d/3/d36d59f762e929cb897599cdcacbed0848f84463.jpeg)

As far as review goes - it does it’s job. I don’t need to dry filament too often and I have alternative method that works pretty well and free. For the testing of this dryer I had a spool of petg sitting outside for a week in 100% humidity through the rains. In 6 hours there was a significant improvement in the filament moisture content.

There is a good fan installed that is choked by restricted airflow through the vents. A LOT. So if I would keep mine, I’d cut up the vents to increase airflow. Like every other slot would be removed.

 ![img_v3_02g4_43b1c79c-1208-4f5b-ac08-c3ab1534623h](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/snapmaker/original/3X/6/2/623de6d21960ec234b0b1eada34a721b2c2d9036.jpeg)

Here is a couple of closeup videos from the testing we’ve done.

This is good info. I have a couple filament dryers I’m not terribly impressed with, and the only one I still use is the PrintDry Pro because it gets to 85C. I’m thinking of picking these up specifically for PETG, and your videos make it seem like it does a good job. Thank you @xchrisd as well!

I really like the built-in rechargeable desiccant. It looks to be a more versatile solution than my Sunlu dryers, especially since I only need to buy one heating unit and swap it between boxes.

It looks much too big to do so, And anyway, if you have more than one box, you would want to have one box sitting on the dryer module while another box is feeding the machine with filament.

So the first video is worst case, after the filament has been out in the rain? Hopefully something most of us rarely have to deal with. 😉 At least it shows how bad moister can affect filament.

If you leave a spool of PLA exposed to air in a space that doesn’t have air conditioner and it is not freezing cold for a few weeks - it will be the same. I just had to speed things up.
