ELEGOO Neptune 4 Plus Upgrade Kit

Product features:

1.The installation base is made of aerospace-grade aluminum alloy with CNC processing, good flatness and verticality, high dimensional accuracy, lightweight product, and reduced motor load.

2.The Y-axis adopts a unique structure of double guide rails and double sliders, which makes the Y-axis more evenly and stably loaded. The linear guide rails and sliders are made of high-carbon chromium bearing steel and use electroplating rust prevention technology, with high hardness, wear resistance, smoothness, and good rust prevention ability. The linear guide models : X-axis, MGN 9H, length 400mm, with 1 MGN 9H slider, Quantity: 1 sets;
Y-axis, MGN 9C, length 440mm, with 2 MGN 9C sliders, Quantity: 2 sets; Z-axis, MGN 12C, length 450mm, with MGN 12C sliders, Quantity: 2 sets.

3.Easy to install, retaining as many original machine parts as possible, and the machine's motion size (printable size) will not be lost after installation.

This product can effectively solve the following problems:

1. The problem of POM wheels causing hair and powder friction.



2. The need to adjust the POM wheel every once in a while, and not knowing how to adjust it correctly.



3. Provide a hardware foundation for stable and fast printing, such as if you need to use klipper.

Comparison before and after the X-axis upgrade.

The Y-axis upgrade kit for Neptune 4 Plus comes with an additional small component used for adjusting the position of the accelerometer (see diagram).


Precautions:

Do not let the slider slide out of the guide rail, as this may damage the slider. When assembling, do not completely tighten all the screws of the same part. Wait until all the screws of the part are partially screwed in before tightening them completely.

For the first-time use, it is recommended to apply some sewing machine oil on the rails.

After installation is complete, you need to level the platform first before starting the printing process.

Product category:

X-axis upgrade guide kit (HIWIN guide): includes one sets of HIWIN linear guides, X-axis mounting brackets (2 types), and screw packs.

X-axis upgrade guide rail kit (林邓 guide rail): includes one sets of 林邓 linear guide rails, X-axis installation brackets (2 types), and screw packs.

Y-axis upgrade guide kit (HIWIN guide): includes two sets of HIWIN linear guides, X-axis mounting brackets (2 types), and screw packs.

Y-axis upgrade guide rail kit (林邓 guide rail): includes two sets of 林邓 linear guide rails, X-axis installation brackets (2 types), and screw packs.

Z-axis upgrade guide rail kit (林邓 guide rail): includes two sets of 林邓 linear guide rails, Z-axis installation brackets (3 types), and screw packs.


Z-axis Dual Synchronous Belt Kit: Includes upper bracket, lower adjustment bracket, drive shaft, 3 types of timing pulleys, circular timing belt, open timing belt (Gates), motor extension cable, auxiliary materials (screws, zip ties, isolation pillars, etc.).

This kit is suitable for machines that have already been upgraded with Z-axis linear guides and is not suitable for original equipment. The purpose of this upgrade kit is to replace the original lead screw transmission with synchronous belt transmission, reducing printing layer lines caused by lead screw transmission and minimizing the noise of lead screw transmission.
