Neptune 4 Max

Hey u/NeiaLancia , Congrats on your new 3d printer! Longtime Elegoo Neptune 4 Max owner here, that was the first printer I owned and started on and absolutely love it. I have over 1500 hours printing on it now and she still works like new. Just a few pieces of advice 3d Printing is a continuous lear

u/Fioricascastle this is normal for the Neptune 4 Max. I have over 1500 printing hours with mine, this is what mine look like after just cleaning the chassis the weekend previously. So long as the bed is not wobbly and is freely moving, there will be some POM dust generated during prints. When they

I got a neptune 4 max about a month ago. After 2 small prints, I went all in and printed a prototype xbox shell. 190 hours. The amount of rubber dust from the bed was insane, but its broken in now haha.

Neptune 4 Max needs just a replacement of springs with silicone spacers and proper frame adjustment (plus knowledge that the induction sensor is not compensated). Nothing else needs to be done to this printer to work reliably with PLA (maybe adding a little loctite and biweekly cleaning and lubricat

I am (or better, was) in the same boat as you. I bought the N4 max in Dec 23 as an upgrade for my Kobra 1 Max. It took a lot of tuning and tinkering to get parts to even print, not even reliably, let alone good looking ones. To be fair it was my first klipper printer, but with the box standard POM w

Dang, I feel like I am missing out.😃 My Neptune 4 Max is my first printer. I was meticulous about assembly, making sure everything was square and tight. Washed the plate with soap and water. I went through the leveling process included in the box (even using "gasp" the paper method), then auto level

before I reach the price point that a new printer at this build volume (400x400x500) commands So the rub is you can get an Elegoo Neptune 4 Max for under $400, which is roughly the same build volume(420x420x480) but already has Klipper, auto bed leveling, a direct drive extruder, hot end rated for 3

I'd say it depends on several factors but overall the Neptune 4 Max is a wonderful printer for FDM printing. Do note that buying a printer 2nd hand does void the warranty on Elegoo's terms and conditions so any part replacement will be on the buyer of 2nd hand products vs using the traditional Elego

It is a great value. I bought a refurbished unit that has worked out well. pros: - excellent value - good web app interface - no frills, simple and straight forward design cons:- A single pom wheel bolt head is inaccessible on the left side of the gantry. The only way to access it is to fully remove

Calibrated 4 Plus prints better than fancy stock Bambulab X1C. Rule of thumb is: if it works, don't fix it. If you don't need to make adjustments between prints - then you are fine. I have Neptune 4 Max with thousands of hours (basucally Plus with bigger print volume). I tried different upgrades. Ra
