SICCO Solo and Solo Crystal

10.09.2024: BOM is now available

In August i released the SICCO Box for the Prusa XL . The interest was enormous! Thank you for feedback and ideas.
One of the ideas has come to fruition. I modified the SICCO Box for XL to be independend. It now comes in 2 Versions for you to choose.
SICCO Solo and the SICCO Solo Crystal are two variants of the same design. Both are Dry boxes and Filament Storage Systems to keep your filament safe and organized. The Solos both can take 5 Filaments or 2x2kg + 1 Kg spools. All of the spools roll on Ball bearings and are guided outside with ptfe tubes to your Printer, Multiple Printer or MMU.

*Voron/ERCF users, keep an eye open*

The SICCO Solo is almost completely Printable and supports Drying mods , like the SUNLU Mod for the Original SICCO Box.

The SICCO Solo Crystal is a variation that is almost completely made of acrylic sheets. the Filament Carrier and connection struts are still printed. 

Are you tired of failed prints, brittle filaments, and inconsistent results? The SICCO Solo support you, so that you have the best 3D printing experience and your prints are always top-notch.

Why the SICCO Box?

1: Easy front Access: No more fumbling on the side of the printer. The front-loading access design makes it incredibly simple to swap out filaments, saving you time and frustration. This user-friendly feature is perfect for frequent filament changes.

2: Clean filament: no debree, dust or other particles that can lay on the Filament, and clog the Nozzle

3: Easy and natural unroll of spools compared to other solutions. Cardboard spools tend to have a higher resistance when unroaling. With the used Ball bearings on Silicon rollers, every spool unwinds with ease.

4: Passive Moisture control: 2 Big Silica Gel Containers:Filaments are highly susceptible to moisture, which can cause poor adhesion, stringing, and failed prints. This Filament Dry Box keeps your filament dry and ready to use, ensuring optimal printing conditions every time.

5: Real Time Moisture Control (Sunlu Mod): Equipped with smart sensors, the SICCO Mod continuously monitors and displays the humidity levels, giving you peace of mind knowing your filament is in the best possible condition.

6: Active Filament drying, before and WHILE printing: By using dry filament, you’ll notice immediate improvements in your print quality—sharper details, stronger layers, and smoother surfaces. Say goodbye to inconsistent results and hello to professional-grade prints.
Take control over the environment with active chamber heating, ensuring your filament stays at the ideal temperature. Perfect for those challenging print jobs.

Easy assembly: Soldering iron for heat inserts, and Basic screw driver needed. 
Designed with seamless integration in mind. It’s compatible with a wide range of 3D Filament spools, making it a versatile addition to any setup. It is compatible with 99% of spool sizes. Even 2 kg spools.

What will you get: 

1:  All Files for the Printed parts.
2  3dx Files to laser cut the Acrylic sheets for the “Pizza Door” and Side Panels of the SICCO Crystal
3. A list with affiliate links from 3d-Printiverse for the needed parts from Shops in Germany and the US. Of course all parts can be ordered very cheap on ALIEXPRESS.

I thank all supporters of this Design! And am happy for Feedback.

Licence: I would be happy if someone is interested in making a ready to build Kit with all but printed files.
 

Digital Part Licence: I want to allow to remix the Heating tubes , so that other heating elements can be implemented. For all other Remixes please contact me.

Thanks and Happy printing!
