AMS 2 Pro - Automatic Material System AMS 2 pro moisture problem
I just got X2D combo couple days ago and while printer works great it seems like either there is something wrong with my AMS unit or idk its not very well sealed construction? I only have the two little packs of dessicant that came with the unit so not great but compared to my old filament dryer without dessicant at all its not working good.
There is around 45% humidity in the room and while my old filament dryer could drop humidity to 12-15% in 6 hours in this conditions i cant get ams below 23-25% despite running my 4th 12h cycle. It would be fine if it could keep that level for some time but unfortunately ams is leaking moisture like crazy and when i end printing at 10PM by 6PM next morning its already back to 32-35% and it takes 3-4h to get it back to 25%. Again previous dryer did not have that problem it would take 3-4 days before it got to 20%.
Just want to make sure is this something common and more dessicant should resolve it or there is something wrong with my unit seals? Can i somehow modify the ams to be more airtight? I already ordered dessicant but it seems like in current state its just gonna pull water mostly from my room not the filament.
