  • Looking for a large-scale FDM 3D printer at an affordable price? Look no further than the ELEGOO Neptune 3 Max, priced at just $470! With a massive printing size of 420x420x500mm, this printer is perfect for those looking to create larger models or print in batches. The dual-gear direct drive extruder with gears made of SUS303 stainless steel features adjustable extrusion force and a 3:1 reduction ratio, which ensures smoother filament feeding and stable & accurate printing, greatly reducing nozzle clogging and gear jumping problems. Ideal for printing PLA, PETG, ABS, and flexible filaments such as TPU. The non-contact high precision sensor automatically scans 63 points of the hotbed to compensate for any unevenness and inconsistencies of the printing platform.

    Good video, thanks. My Neptune 3 Plus arrived yesterday to replace a very old CTC Makerbot clone. Whilst I needed a large print area for future projects, the Plus is as big as I would want to go. Gosh it feels huge. At 14.2kg this has some heft on the desk The printer feels like a quality item. The Buddha test print came out great. First impressions are that things have moved on a great deal and become a lot more refined with the bed being an excellent example - it sticks very well and releases the print when flexed / cool.
    I like the touch screen interface but since I'm using a non Elego version of Cura, I have used the sigathi Thumbnail package to try to make the image of the print appear on the units screen (not seen this work so far). This is a nice to have...
    Elegoo did impress me with a sub 24 hour delivery (I'm in the UK). I had expected the unit to be delivered in a few weeks time from the US. As you say, packing is excellent. Shame there is only enough PLA included to print the dinky Buddha...
    My primary use case is printing model airplanes. So look forward to trying vase mode on a fuselage later today.

    I want a large format 3D printer that is capable of good print quality that I can use to print multiple parts at once for my online business. The 420 x 420 mm bed may be too big! I don't want to waste the energy to heat that big bed. This ginormous print volume printer would be good for people printing cosplay stuff like big helmets, faux armor... or someone who is printing car parts! That's awesome.

    Interesting Video.
    With such a huge bed, ringing can be a problem when printing fast. Maybe Klipper with input shaping would be a good idea. Maybe adding a Sonic Pad would be nice in future.
    The hotend does not seem to be high flow. For a 0.8 mm nozzle a Bondtech CHT might be a good idea as an upgrade.
    A little problem might be to build an enclosure for this printer. Due to energy crisis my ambient temperature in the house actually is about 10°C. Thats totaly enough for me - but not for my 3d-printers. My mk3s always complain. So I put them into enclosures, use a hairdryer to het nozzle and bed (at least near the thermistor) to 15°C to avoid min-temp error, and preheat the bed for 10 minutes inside the enclosure to get a sufficient warm enviroment for the printer. For the Neptune 3 Max this seem more of a problem; most tables I have only are about 80cm deep. No problem placing the Max without enclosure, as the bed could swing over the front edge of the table, and I could place the printer back to the wall (or under the table) if not in use. But an enclosure would take more space that the table provides permernantly. I am not sure, if the bedslinger design is the right decision here. On the other hand it keeps the price down... Maybe I just redefine the smal toilet room for guests and call it my new "printer enclosure" (and start a YT-chanel "CNC-WC" as homage to Stefan's CNC kitchen)

    Fantastic, would love to see the hot end upgrade option video, as I print ABS with my heavily modified CR-10 with great results. Could I ask a favor, my Neptune 3 Max is preordered and I want to get started on my enclosure build. What is the min clearance needed forward and back with the bed travel taken into account? Also how high is the printer from table-top to the top of the horizontal support, not including the spool holder extension arm?

    • @randymay
      @randymay  Рік тому +1

      So took the time to look it over and see how much area you would need for it so it didn't hit anything and if you wanted to make an enclosure for it:
      42" Front to back- this will give you a little room in the back so the bed doesn't hit the wall along with the cable.
      32" Side to side - this is with a few inches added to make sure you have clearance around it.
      39" with the spool on it and to have some room to replace the spool
      32" without the spool with a few inches added so you would have clearance over the top of it.
      Hope this helps and I'm going to make a short about it.

    • @imagesh1
      @imagesh1 Рік тому +1

      @@randymay So wonderful, thank you! I will probably make it 32" tall with a printed short "spool holder extension" straight up so the spool is outside the enclosure, with a simple slit in the enclosure material (water cooler foil insulation) to allow the filament to slide back and forth a bit. I use the "slit" concept on my CR-10 enclosure in a number of places and it works well. I print ABS almost exclusively in the CR-10, and the heat from the bed is enough to keep the enclosure at a nice elevated temp, and I use an Amazon purchased air filtration system to simply pull a very slight negative pressure out of the enclosure and through carbon filter. Absolutely no smell...
      Thanks so much!

    What I like is that they use CZCL PSU, which are reliable and safe PSU, and they have their own UL code, which is something I really appreciate. The only negative I can say about CZCL are the capacitors they use, they are not of high quality, but if they are replaced by Japanese ones, that source will last the life of the printer.
    That PSU brand is usually mounted by Anycubic a lot.
    My recommendation is to leave the original PSU, because it is a psu with active PFC, and with a high quality electrical design, the only thing that would do as indicated before, change the capacitors and that source will last many years.

I'm using the ones that came with the printer, after doing all the upgrades from the other video...
    I'm not trying to print nothing crazy but I just like when things work when I need and it's the best I can... anyway! thanks for the videos - It has helped a lot!

    • @randymay
      @randymay  Рік тому +1

      For the most part going up to a 0.8mm nozzle will speed up your print times but it will lower your print quality. So if you are making larger objects that don't need a lot of fine details or if you need functional prints then 0.8mm is nice to use.

I have this printer, tell me which are the best components that I can buy on Amazon to optimize it more, I don't want to have problems in the future, can you make me a list and the link where I can buy them, I would really appreciate it.

    Hey @Randy, did you intentionally say Creality at 6:20 regarding firmware or you meant Elegoo? FYI.

    • @randymay
      @randymay  Рік тому +2

      Nope not at all totally messed up on that one meant to say Elegoo. I think the reason for that was because I was looking at all the different parts needed for swapping it over to an all-metal hot end and most of the parts happen to be from Creality or meant for reality printers.

      Yeah that was a slip of the tongue I guess, I had Creality on the mind because a lot of the parts that I was looking up are Creality parts to upgrade this. I did contact Elegoo though and they did get back to me so I'm working on another video showing how to do all the upgrade work as I type this. I'm hoping to have it out by tomorrow.

    What is involved w/ setting up the printer when you change nozzle sizes? I imagine somewhere you have to tell/set it to which one you're using.

    • @randymay
      @randymay  Рік тому +1

      There is a setting in the slicer for different nozzle sizes and it should adjust things for you so it will print and you can adjust settings as needed from that point

      @@randymay Thanks! What is your opinion on getting the Max vs the Plus/Pro if you don't really NEED the size? Does the Max do as well on small prints? At this time, I don't need one that big, but I also don't want to have to buy another one down the road if I wanted bigger...and at $470 (IF you can find one), it's almost a no brainer....as long as small items print just as well on it as the smaller printers.

      @randymay  Рік тому +1

      So took the time to look it over and see how much area you would need for it so it didn't hit anything and if you wanted to make an enclosure for it:
      42" Front to back- this will give you a little room in the back so the bed doesn't hit the wall along with the cable.
      32" Side to side - this is with a few inches added to make sure you have clearance around it.
      39" with the spool on it and to have some room to replace the spool
      32" without the spool with a few inches added so you would have clearance over the top of it.
      Hope this helps and I'm going to make a short about it.

    So strange how they equipped this with a 0.4mm hot end, for such a build size 0.8 and up is the only way to go. Wouldn't be bad to do a klipperizing on this one, speeding up such large prints can save days.

    • @randymay
      @randymay  Рік тому +1

      I understand why they shipped it with a 0.4mm nozzle. If someone new to this and just getting files online most of them are designed to be printed using a 0.4mm nozzle. I do think this printer should have been shipped with 0.6 and 0.8mm replacement nozzles so you would be able to try them out. I have asked in an email if this printer can easily run klipper, so as soon as I get that info I will be sure to share.
