ELEGOO is a globally recognised leader in consumer and prosumer 3D printing, founded by a team of engineers dedicated to making advanced manufacturing accessible to everyone. Known for combining innovation, reliability, and affordability, ELEGOO develops printers that empower creators - from beginners and educators to professional designers and engineers.
The Neptune 4 Plus Starter Pack combines ELEGOO's evolution in FDM printing with a reliable, easy-to-use PLA filament to deliver faster speeds, smarter automation, improved precision, and user-friendly operation. Representing the next generation of the Neptune series, the Neptune 4 range introduces high-speed printing powered by modern motion systems and intelligent firmware.
The ELEGOO Neptune 4 Plus expands high-speed FDM printing into large-format production while maintaining precision and reliability. Powered by Klipper firmware and a reinforced motion system, it enables creators to produce larger parts faster without sacrificing print quality. Designed for demanding workflows, it features an all-metal hotend, intelligent automatic bed levelling, and an upgraded cooling system, making it suitable for prototyping, cosplay components, functional parts, and batch production. Its larger build volume combined with high-speed performance makes it ideal for makers looking to scale beyond standard desktop printing sizes.
Complementing the printer is Elegoo PLA 1.75 mm / 1000 g filament on an eco-friendly paper spool, a premium, reliable, and easy-printing material designed for everyday 3D projects. This high-quality, general-purpose PLA (Polylactic Acid) offers consistent performance across a wide range of applications, with excellent dimensional stability, low warp characteristics, and a smooth surface finish, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced makers. The eco-friendly paper spool reduces plastic waste and supports more sustainable packaging without compromising filament quality or feeding reliability, while strong layer adhesion and predictable results ensure dependable prints for models, prototypes, toys, tools, and everyday functional parts.
You can easily access the recommended slicing software directly from the ELEGOO Africa website, where the latest version is available for download along with setup guides and supporting resources. This ensures you are working with the most up-to-date software optimised for the Neptune 4 Plus, allowing for a smooth setup process, simplified print preparation, and the best possible printing performance from day one.
