Manual d'instruccions de l'assecador de filaments Creality Space Pi Plus

1. Introducció

The Creality Space Pi Filament Dryer Plus is designed to optimize 3D printing by effectively drying filament. Moisture absorption can lead to common printing issues such as stringing, clogging, poor adhesion, and layer shifting. This device helps maintain optimal filament conditions, enhancing print quality and minimizing environmental impact on 3D printing filaments.

2. Característiques del producte

• Dual Spool Capacity & Double Drying Design: Accommodates two 1 kg filament rolls simultaneously. Equipped with four filament holes and PTFE pipes, allowing for drying a wide range of filaments and feeding two 3D printers concurrently.
• Double PTC 360° Hot-air Heating & Advanced PTC Heating Technology: Features a built-in fan for rapid heating and 360° hot air circulation, ensuring uniform heating and efficient moisture removal. The 160W PTC heater provides consistent drying, unlike traditional PI heating pads that may result in uneven drying. This PTC heater is durable, energy-saving, and environmentally friendly.
• One-key Set for 12 Filaments & 4-inch LCD Touch Screen: Offers one-key temperature settings for 12 common and high-performance composite filament types, including PLA, ABS, PETG, TPU, PP, PA, PC, ASA, PET, PLA-CF, PETG-CF, and PA-CF. Temperature can also be manually adjusted between 45°C and 70°C. The 4-inch touch screen provides easy operation and allows monitoring of drying conditions and switching between °C and °F.
• Wide Filament Compatibility: Compatible with 99% of FDM 3D printer filament brands and various diameters, including 1.75mm and 2.85mm. Suitable for Nylon/PA/PC and other high-end filaments.

3. Configuració

1. Desembalatge: Carefully remove the filament dryer from its packaging. Inspect for any damage during transit.
2. Col·locació: Place the dryer on a stable, flat surface near your 3D printer.
3. Loading Filaments: Open the top cover. Place one or two spools of filament onto the rollers inside the dryer. Ensure the filament unwinds smoothly.
4. Connecting PTFE Tubes: Insert the PTFE tubes into the designated filament holes on the top of the dryer. Guide the filament through the tubes towards your 3D printer's extruder.
5. Connexió d'alimentació: Connect the power adapter to the dryer and then to a suitable power outlet.

4. Instruccions de funcionament

1. Encès: Press the power button on the touch screen to turn on the device.
2. Select Filament Type: On the 4-inch LCD touch screen, navigate through the material options (e.g., PLA, ABS, PETG, TPU) using the arrow buttons. The dryer will suggest a recommended temperature for the selected material.
3. Temps d'assecat definit: Adjust the drying time (0-48 hours) using the time adjustment buttons on the touch screen.
4. Començar l'assecat: Press the 'Start' button to begin the drying process. The screen will display real-time temperature, humidity, and a drying countdown.
5. Seguiment: Monitor the drying progress on the LCD screen. The dryer will maintain the set temperature for the specified duration.

6. Manteniment

• Neteja: Regularly wipe the exterior of the dryer with a soft, dry cloth. Ensure no dust or debris accumulates on the air vents.
• Inspecció interna: Periodically check the interior for any filament debris or dust. Clean as necessary to ensure optimal air circulation.
• Desiccant (if applicable): While not explicitly mentioned for this model, some filament dryers utilize desiccant. If your model includes desiccant, follow manufacturer guidelines for regeneration or replacement to maintain drying efficiency.

7. Solució De Problemes

• Filament Not Drying Effectively:
  • Ensure the correct filament type and drying temperature/time are selected on the LCD screen.
  • Verify that the dryer's vents are not obstructed, allowing for proper air circulation.
  • Check ambient humidity levels. In extremely humid environments, longer drying times may be necessary.
• Dryer Not Powering On:
  • Confirm that the power cable is securely connected to both the dryer and the power outlet.
  • Proveu la presa de corrent amb un altre dispositiu per assegurar-vos que funciona.
• Sorolls inusuals:
  • Check for any loose components or obstructions inside the dryer, especially near the fan.
  • Si el soroll persisteix, contacteu amb l'atenció al client.
