Now, combine that speed with an acceleration of 20000mm/s, and you get a printer that can handle even the most complex prints with ease.
Any concerns about vibrations or instability are alleviated thanks to the intelligent input shaping and pressure advance function, which work together to minimize any unwanted movements. This results in precise flow control and vastly improved print quality. The ARM 64-bit 1.5GHz quad-core high-performance processor also plays a significant role in ensuring fast, stable, and precise printing.
Processor and Print Quality
Now, let’s look into the brain of the Neptune 4 and explore its processing power and print quality.
ARM 64-bit Quad-Core Processor
Processor-wise, the Neptune 4 boasts an ARM 64-bit 1.5GHz quad-core high-performance processor, which enables fast, stable, and precise printing. This powerful processor ensures that your prints are executed quickly and accurately, making it ideal for complex models and large prints.
Intelligent Input Shaping and Pressure Advance
Pressure control is crucial in 3D printing, and the Neptune 4 excels in this area with its intelligent input shaping and pressure advance function. This feature minimizes vibration effects and enables precise flow control, resulting in greatly improved print quality.
Plus, this advanced feature allows you to achieve smooth and consistent layer transitions, reducing the risk of layer shifting and improving overall print accuracy. With the Neptune 4, you can expect precise and detailed prints, even at high speeds.
Extruder and Filament Feeding
Not only does the Neptune 4 boast impressive printing speeds, but it also features a robust extruder system designed to handle demanding printing tasks.
Dual-Gear Direct Drive Extruder
Directly driving the filament through a 5.2:1 reduction ratio, the self-developed dual-gear direct drive extruder provides powerful extrusion and smoother filament feeding, ensuring consistent print quality.
Metal Throat Pipe and Air Duct Design
Extruder performance is further enhanced by the metal throat pipe and innovative air duct design, which work together to minimize the risk of nozzle clogging and ensure reliable filament feeding.
To take full advantage of this design, the metal throat pipe is precision-engineered to provide a smooth pathway for the filament, while the air duct design efficiently directs airflow to prevent heat buildup and clogging. This results in a more reliable and efficient printing experience, allowing you to focus on creating high-quality prints with your Neptune 4.
Temperature Control and Cooling
Once again, the Neptune 4 impresses with its advanced temperature control and cooling system, designed to ensure optimal performance and reliability.
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| High-Temp Nozzle | Reaches temperatures up to 300°C for fast melting and extrusion |
| Cooling System | Double-sided cooling fans with strong airflow for comprehensive heat dissipation |
300°C High-Temp Nozzle
Even with demanding filament materials, the Neptune 4’s high-temp nozzle ensures reliable and consistent printing. With a temperature range of up to 300°C, you can experiment with a wide range of materials, from PLA to nylon.
Efficient and Instant Cooling System
Temperature control is crucial in 3D printing, and the Neptune 4’s cooling system is designed to keep your prints cool and stable. The double-sided cooling fans provide strong airflow, ensuring that your prints are cooled quickly and evenly.
With the Neptune 4’s efficient cooling system, you can say goodbye to warping and layer shifting. The ball bearing blower fans behind the print head rapidly cool down newly deposited models, allowing you to achieve smooth and precise prints. This means you can focus on creating complex designs without worrying about temperature-related issues.
