Secondly, it is incredibly thick, much thicker than I feel it needs to be; there is no serious computing horsepower in there (just the standard STM32), there is no battery, and no wireless connectivity, but it is a good 20mm of so thick, for no real reason. I feel that this one possibly common mistake warrants an additional step to clarify its correct path in the instructions. It has become a simple case of passing the filament effortlessly though the detector at the top of the gantry, pressing the comfortable lever on the top of the print head before inserting the filament a few cm's and then releasing. Printing habits and variations in consumables can cause the PTFE tubing to wear out and need to be replaced. The addition of LEDs turned out to be more welcome than I had expected, illuminating the machine and print to allow for a clearer view of what's happening.

I will print the same one created by AutoDesk and Kickstarter I use on all FDM printers which I review.

Another thing I personally dislike about the Neptune 3 Pro is the screen, whilst yes it is an objectively nice screen; the 4. Neptune 3 also comes with a guide wheel structure to reduce the feeding resistance of consumables and noise generation.

The accessories need attaching next which includes the magnetic screen mount, extruder cable clip, spool holder and filament sensor.

More Stable Printing] The Z-axis with dual synchronized lead screws and dual-motor drive for more stable movement of the print head and higher printing accuracy, avoiding the printing deviation driven by a single Z-axis lead screw motor. If you're not familiar with Slicing Software then it's the middle stage which takes your computerised 3D models and 'Slices' it into individual layers, usually 0.
