The Big Book of 3D Printing is not just a book. It is a tool for education, industry, and the future.

About the author

Krasimir Georgiev is a mechanical engineer, entrepreneur, and additive technologies expert with over 10 years of practical experience in 3D design, prototyping, and manufacturing. He is the founder of the Edufacturing educational initiative, which aims to develop technological education, STEM, and the professions of the future in Bulgaria.

In his professional career, he has worked with hobby and educational systems as well as industrial solutions for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The accumulated experience in real projects, mistakes, and successful applications forms the basis of the book’s content.

The Big Book of 3D Printing was created over 1,500 hours of independent work, without a publisher, without funding, and without a team, with the clear goal of bringing together in one place knowledge that had previously been scattered, difficult to access, and mostly in foreign languages.

The author believes that access to understandable and practical technological knowledge is key to the development of industry, education, and the next generation of creators in Bulgaria.

The innovative device, made from high-quality insulating materials, features advanced temperature control, ensuring that the external temperature is maintained between 50 and 100°C during the melting process. FC01 heats up to 185°C in just 3 minutes and is designed for temperatures up to 240°C, making it compatible with various 1.75 mm printing materials such as PLA, ABS, and PETG.

The user-friendly, compact design, uncomplicated settings, and intuitive interface make FC01 suitable for beginners as well. The combination of a semi-transparent lid and a real-time temperature monitoring display keeps you informed at all times.

Included in the delivery:

• Combine only identical materials with each other (e.g. PLA with PLA, ABS with ABS, etc.)
• Use only filaments with a diameter of 1.75 mm
• Use preset temperature settings depending on the material.
• Store the device at an ambient temperature of at least 10 ℃
• Disconnect the device from the power supply when not in use (the reason is that when turned on, the device automatically starts to heat up to the preset temperature)
• • 1 x Filament Connector
  • 1 x USB cable
  • 1 x Set of Teflon tubes (approximately 200 pieces)
  • 1 x User Manual

Double 360° hot air heater with PTC heating technology

For even heating, the dry box is equipped with a fan that circulates hot air at an angle of 360° for effective drying of wet filaments. The system is supported by a durable and energy-saving 110-watt PTC heating element.

LCD Touch Screen

Creality Space Pi Filament Dry Box is equipped with a convenient and easy-to-use 3.7-inch touch screen for monitoring drying conditions. The drying countdown, real-time temperature, and real-time humidity can be tracked on the display.

One-key setup for 12 types of filaments with a 48-hour timer function

The box has 12 different temperature settings for various types of filaments. The temperature can be freely adjusted between 45 °C and 70 °C. The heating duration can also be freely adjusted from 0 to 48 hours.

Memory function on power off

In the event of an unexpected power interruption, the device can be easily restarted as it remembers the previous material settings and temperature.

Specifications:

• Product: filament drying box
• Filament diameter: 1.75 mm and 2.85 mm
• Temperature adjustment range: 45 C – 70 C
• Weight: 1,120kg.
