Neptune 4/Pro nozzle: tinyurl.com/mu2... - Наука та технологія
I broke mine and had to get a new unit. Nozzles wear out. I don’t know why Elegoo makes this so hard. They need a quick exchange nozzle without having to take it apart. I guess they want to sell a lot of extruders. Poor design. This and the 4 Plus were rushed to market. Firmware is horrible. They should have used regular Klipper instead of their version.
Agreed, I like the bed size, but my Bambu Lab A1 is my new workhorse. More reliable.
I definitely agree, I’m replacing my nozzle for the second time and I use some pliers on the silver casing thing and broke it a little, seems rather dangerous to be that close to a 210*c piece of metal too
Be very careful with the ceramic heater. I broke mine. I'm very surprised by how fragile this part is. Don't even touch it. Make sure the metal retaining ring stays on the brass heat block and doesn't come off with the silicone sleeve. If it does things will smoke when you turn it on.
Wish I read that before
I had to send my 4 max back because of my heated bed was failing. I had to get the regular 4. I wish mine worked. 😢
When will replacement nozzles be made available?
I don't know if it's me (I'm new to Klipper) or the printer but I've had an issue on both my Neptune 4 Plus (same hotend as the Max) and the basic where my Z-Offset got reset and the nozzle buried itself into the bed during a print. This destroyed the nozzle and damaged the magnetic sheet. The regular nozzles are fairly easy to source (as are the magnetic sheets) but the Plus/Max nozzles are not.
My Plus is now out of operation until I manage to get a new nozzle.
Hello friend, it will be in Dec. If you need it urgently, please email to 3dp@elegoo.com and our staff will help you further.
@@ElegooOfficial Thanks - I have emailed...
I had this same exact thing happen to me today.
Elegoo Klipper is an awful rushed excuse for a firmware, theres many known issues that have been present since launch, and still continue to be. Swap over to official Klipper if you want, its nicer waters over here.
You forgot a very important thing I guess, the layout on my Neptune 4 Max is a bit different, theres a sensor cable mounted on the nozzle head. One has to be sure that this cable doesn't get out and is placed behind the heating shield when mounting together again. Otherwise it is going to smoke and stink inside your building. 😏
Hey man! The sensor cable got out of place. Could you help me out real quick?
@@rsd865 I just put it into place again and placed everything as it was before, did not solder/glue or anything else. Until today it's fine as it is 🤞🏻
Can we replace the neptune 4 max hotend with neptune 3 max? Because the neptune 4 max hotend is shit, its wires are so thin and fragile
Hey elegoo how do you remove filament that jamed and set around the nozzle and you can't take the printer head off easily
I actually am having this issue for the second time now. I had to heat up the nozzle (even though it says not to) to melt the filament and pull everything out. Printer then worked fine for a while! Just about to fix this again though, and am thinking this is an issue possibly caused by having too high a print temp?
Be careful doing it. But it’s usually caused by a adhesion failure

Clockwise to remove nozzle and counter-clockwise to add a nozzle ?
For some reason, my Elegoo Neptune 3 pro melts the filliment much too fast even after I set the extruder to 200 degrees. And when I do a simple print, it won't even stay on the base. It just twirls up and gets stuck on the extruder nozzle. My dad suggests it might have something to do with the software that needs to be updated or fixed, but I've only had this printer for a month or two. Any tips or ideas, 😮anyone?
Same here with the Neptune 4 Max, I am going to change the nozzle now as everytime after 1 minute printing I have a huge Clodge sitting inside my print head. I don't get it out with melting or sthg else. Let's see how this works out 🤞🏻
The nozzle change was one half of my solution, now it's the best printer I've seen in a long time. Within the last 2 Days I figured out why my nozzle was full of Filament the whole time ... ⚠with the new Firmware the nozzle temperature was set to 170°C instead of 200°C as before! ⚠ Even if you heat up the bed and nozzle and want to load a filament afterwards, it goes down to 170°C, which is min. 30°C too low! 🚨 That's exactly what ruined my nozzle. Now everything works best and we printed 40x40 parts already with flawless first layers 👌
@Natedog-gx3nj This is exactly what's happening to me...I've had mine for about a week. The filament ends up looking like a fruit roll-up! I'm so frustrated!
while unplugging the proximity switch, i somehow was able to rip the whole fucking solder points out, and i was pulling even more gentle than in that video!
are there replacement pcbs?
Great.
Whats the recommended tightening torque for the nozzle?
My nozzle is too tight to get out, I put all of my strength in to it and it didn’t budge
Wait like 5 min at 210c
Get it hotter for sure.
What about short circuit ? While its open, This will be bad.
This is a great printer but this video isn't the best. The nozzle needs to be heated up to more than 210. I broke two ceramic elements before I got this right. The elegoo discord is very helpful.
thanks! I heat to 295 to do this. With 210 happened nothing.
Crappy design of hotend....
How
ok but, how do I get mine to park at this height?
Prepare… Move… press 10mm and tap Z+ until it’s at your desired height.
TBH CHANGING THIS NOZZLE IS REALLY ANNOYING
this vid was very helpful
Thank you!
Yeah that nozzle did even budge, ended up rotating the whole thing and in the end it broke. Have to spend $50 to get a new one
Righty loosey lefty Tighty ?
Thanks elegoo
what a fuking mess...i try to put out the black plastic and the metal part holding little cabe broke
yea i broke my housing from the board hell yea fat fingers for the win
What a terrible product. Just removed the fan bracket like in the video. It's cracked now and the stepper fan not working anymore
Just found the same thing on mine :(. Luckily I have super small washers but your right, very poor product quality.
WE WANT THE 0.8 and 1 mm NOZZLES!!!
no love for the .6?
@@scrogathon no bro I need to print fast lol
I know the feeling @@Hellosirrrr
i got .2 .6 .8 and 1.0 nozzles for mine.
@@scrogathon for the Neptune 4 max? Where?
