Neptune 4 Pro is certainly a great addition to the Elegoo family. Learn more in a detailed description below.
The FDM printer relies on a high-performance computing processor to achieve a remarkable top speed of 500 mm/s! Elegoo recommends a standard print speed of 250 mm/s for optimal print results.
The processor is enhanced with a specialized motion control algorithm for precise step time calculations, ensuring enhanced motion accuracy.
The powerful ARM 64-bit 1.5G quad-core high-speed silent mainboard guarantees quiet operation and minimal printing noise. Additionally, it offers 8GB of memory and accommodates secure storage for over 400 model files.
Distinct from other Neptune series printers that are compatible with Marlin firmware, both the Neptune 4 and Neptune 4 Pro come with Klipper firmware.
Neptune 4 Pro has a popular FDM 3D printer build volume of 225 x 225 x 265mm, enabling the realization of the most creative 3D concepts.
Both the X and Y axes rely on durable all-metal guide rails, enhanced with U-shaped steel wheels for minimized friction and heightened precision.
Neptune 4 Pro features a 250-watt heated bed that rapidly reaches 110°C. It has an intelligent heated bed, featuring two autonomous heating areas: one at 100 watts and the other at 150 watts. This intelligent system significantly reduces power consumption by heating only the necessary area according to the model size.
While configuring slicer parameters, you can choose “intelligent mode.” This mode automatically identifies your model’s size, activating either one heating area for smaller prints or both for different-sized models. Manual control of heating areas is also available via the screen.
The Neptune 4 Pro’s distinctive dual gear direct drive extruder, exclusive to Elegoo, is 25% lighter than the Neptune 3 Pro’s extruder. This design guarantees superior extrusion force, achieving a 5.2x extrusion ratio and elevated printing precision.
A diverse range of materials, including PLA, ABS, TPU, nylon, and more, are fully supported.
The Neptune 4 Pro’s hotend is engineered to withstand temperatures up to 300°C. It features an all-metal high-temperature heat break, alongside a unique air channel design that enhances heat dissipation.
The extended nozzle design promotes thorough filament melting and even extrusion.
The advanced cooling system combines a heat dissipation module with intelligent fan control, ensuring impressive heat management during printing:
The Neptune 4 Pro integrates a high-precision, non-contact levelling sensor, gathering data from 121 points (11 x 11) on the build platform, thereby improving printing success rates.
Thanks to its specialized PEI coating, completed prints can be effortlessly detached from the build platform after the heated bed cools down, without requiring any tools.
The magnetic 4.3-inch touchscreen can be mounted on the printer base or conveniently held by hand.
Whether remote control or monitoring, you maintain visibility over your printing process through the web terminal.
Achieve optimal belt tension with the knob-operated system.
The widened Y-axis profile (56 mm) ensures greater stability and fluid motion.
The Neptune 4 Pro is equipped with two robust Z-axis motors, each with lead screws, promoting superior print quality and heightened precision.
Neptune 4 Pro is outfitted with LED lights. One LED light is located right next to the nozzle and the light bar with 30 LED lights on the top of the printer frame. Both LED sets can be effortlessly controlled via the touchscreen, enabling simple on/off controls.
While these printers share many similar features, three key distinctions set the Neptune 4 Pro apart:
