How Loud is the New Filament Dryer? #filamentdryer

Thordsen 3D 2025-02-12 | For those wondering about the noise level of the air pump in the IFD-175 AP, here is an informal baseline to give you an idea. It's only a few decibels louder than our Bambu Lab A1 during a print.

Introducing the IFD-175 AP Inline Filament Dryer

Thordsen 3D 2025-02-03 | For those that want a re-upload of the previous video describing the IFD-175 AP with corrected audio, here you go. There was an error with the export but it has been fixed. We will leave the old video up because we do not want to take away the conversations that started in the comments. This new filament dryer brings a new way to dry your filament by using heat and forced air to dry your filament while you print. This can be especially helpful for filaments like carbon fiber nylons as they are very hygroscopic and can still absorb moisture while on the spool holder during a print.

IFD-175 AP HIGH SPEED RACE

Thordsen 3D 2024-11-22 | Getting tired of printing benchys and Buddas. Time for something a little more my speed, AIRCRAFT CARRIERS!! Our IFD-175 AP equipped Bambu A1 and Elegoo Neptune 4 blasting away at 300mmps.

Thordsen 3D 2024-11-22 | This is an un-powered test of the IFD-175 AP mount for the ELEGOO Neptune 4 PRO. It's printing a Budda at 300mmps. The mount is just double stick taped on with Permacel high bond.

IFD-175 AP RUNNING AT 300mmps on a BAMBU A1 PRINTER

Thordsen 3D 2024-11-20 | This video demonstrates that the IFD-175 AP can handle the rapid movement of the Bambu A1 at 300 millimeters per second. The filament is four year old Makeshaper PLA and the object is a remote control holder for my sister. It finished with ZERO flaws!!

I had to reverse engineer the tip of the original tube splitter in order to get the head to feed correctly. There's a little magnet inside that closes a circuit inside the head. The STL/STEP files will be uploaded to Thingiverse.com soon.
