About this accessory

MD-F01 · Filament drying cabinet

Dry filament, six spools at a time, for days on end.

Engineering filament takes up water from the air, and wet filament prints badly. The MD-F01 dries, stores and feeds in one cabinet: six spools stay connected and feeding, the air around them is held below 15% humidity, and when one spool runs out the next one takes over.

Why dry filament matters

Wet filament is where print quality goes first.

PETG, ABS, carbon-filled and nylon-based grades start taking up moisture as soon as they leave their sealed bag. In the hot nozzle that water turns to steam: the surface comes out rough and bubbly, threads string between parts and the layers bond weakly. The usual fix is to dry a spool before each job and hope it stays dry. The MD-F01 keeps every spool dry all the time.

below15% relative humidity

Temperature and humidity are measured continuously and the drying adapts on its own to what is loaded. There is nothing to set per material.

Built-in heating

Gentle heat, and it never switches off.

50°C

A heating system in the base runs continuous low-temperature drying, from room temperature up to 50 °C. Drying never stops between jobs, so the filament never gets the chance to take moisture back, whether the next print starts in an hour or next week.

Three tiers

Six spools feeding, more waiting in the dry.

  • Top tier: four 1 kg spoolsFor quick access and everyday colours, each on its own holder.
  • Middle tier: two 3 kg spoolsFor long runs and large models, where a bigger spool means fewer changes.
  • Bottom compartment: dry storage500 × 340 × 410 mm, room for ten 1 kg or four 3 kg spare spools, kept in the same dry air as the ones in use instead of a cupboard.

Spools up to 3 kg: 1 kg spools of Ø 200 × 67 mm and 3 kg spools of Ø 270 × 105 mm. The glass door keeps every spool in sight.

Automatic spool switching

When a spool runs out, the next one is already loaded.

The cabinet switches to the next spool on its own, with no operator and no pause. On a large model that matters beyond convenience: a stop to change filament is where a visible seam appears, or where the job fails if nobody is there to change it. MINGDA quotes more than ten days of continuous printing on a full cabinet.

Filament usage, live

See what is left before the long job starts.

The touchscreen on top of the cabinet shows every spool and its filament usage in real time. You know whether a job will finish on what is loaded before you start it, not after it has stopped, and a spool running low shows up while there is still time to plan.

RFID recognition

It knows which spool is which.

The spool holders read RFID tags, so official MINGDA filament is identified automatically as it goes in. In a shop that runs several grades side by side, that keeps material traceability simple: what is loaded, where, and how much of it is left.

Materials

Built for the filaments that suffer most from damp.

The MD-F01 takes 1.75 mm filament: PLA, PETG, ABS, PET-CF, S-Multi, HtPA-CF, PVA and dozens of others. PETG, carbon-filled grades, nylon-based HtPA-CF and water-soluble PVA are the ones that gain the most from dry storage.

AdPETGPLAPETGABSPET-CFS-MultiHtPA-CFPVA
  • AdPETG, the filament we supplyPETG takes up moisture from the air, which makes it exactly the kind of material this cabinet is built for. We supply both, so the filament and the way it is kept come from one supplier.
  • Not for flexible filamentTPU and other flexible materials are not supported: they do not feed reliably through the cabinet's path.

Out of the box

Arrives assembled. Plug it in and load the spools.

600mm wide
450mm deep
1560mm tall

About 85 kg of sheet metal and glass, on castors, so it can stand next to the printer it feeds. It runs on 220 V with a rated power of 1,000 W. There is nothing to build before the first spool goes in.

Frequently asked questions

What does the MD-F01 do?

It dries, stores and feeds filament in one cabinet. Six spools stay connected and feeding the printer, the air inside is kept below 15% relative humidity with continuous drying at up to 50 °C, and when a spool runs out the cabinet switches to the next one on its own.

How many spools does it hold?

Six spools feeding at the same time: four 1 kg spools on the top tier and two 3 kg spools on the middle tier. The bottom compartment, 500 × 340 × 410 mm, stores ten more 1 kg spools or four 3 kg spools in the same dry air. Spools can weigh up to 3 kg.

How dry does it keep the filament?

Below 15% relative humidity, held to within ±5%. Temperature and humidity are measured continuously and a heater in the base runs continuous low-temperature drying from room temperature up to 50 °C. The drying adapts on its own to what is loaded, so there is nothing to set per material.

Which filaments can it take?

1.75 mm filament: PLA, PETG, ABS, PET-CF, S-Multi, HtPA-CF, PVA and dozens of others, including AdPETG, the PETG filament we supply. Flexible materials such as TPU are not supported, because they do not feed reliably through the cabinet's path.

What happens when a spool runs out?

The cabinet switches to the next spool automatically, without an operator and without pausing the print, so there is no seam on the model where the spool changed. MINGDA quotes more than ten days of continuous printing on a full cabinet.

Can we see how much filament is left?

Yes. The touchscreen on top of the cabinet shows every loaded spool and its filament usage in real time, and RFID tags on official MINGDA filament are read automatically when a spool goes in.

What do we need on site?

A 220 V supply for a rated power of 1,000 W and a floor area of 600 × 450 mm, with 1560 mm of height. The cabinet weighs about 85 kg, stands on castors and arrives assembled, so it can be placed next to the printer and loaded straight away.
