3D printer - Original Prusa MK4 - set for self-assembly

Product description: 3D printer - Original Prusa MK4 - kit for self-assembly

3D printer from the Czech company Prusa , known among 3D printing enthusiasts. The device is based on a 32-bit motherboard and supports Input Shaper and Pressure Advance technologies, which reduces printing time by up to 70% compared to the MK3 printer, without compromising quality. The working area of the printer has dimensions of 250 x 210 x 220 mm , and the entire structure - 500 x 550 x 400 mm. The set consists of elements for self-assembly.

MK3 vs MK4.

Improved speed

Use of Input Shaper and Pressure Advance technology in the printer software, it allows you to eliminate vibrations during printing, as well as predict the flow of the filament. Thanks to this, the printing time is reduced by up to 70% compared to MK3. It took her less than 20 minutes to print the "Benchy" model - check out the manufacturer's video . What's more, the printer is very quiet even at these speeds.

Exceptional print quality

Durable construction and new precise 0.9 ° Trinamic 2130 stepper motors on the X and Y axes reduce vertical undulations on prints (Vertical Fine Artifact) . Additionally, there are thicker 10mm rods on the Z axis. The result of these improvements is a very good quality of the resulting models, even when using demanding filaments.

New extruder

The innovative direct extruder, Nextruder , has many new features, and the auxiliary "LoveBoard", located inside it, ensures quick and easy replacement of parts such as thermistor, fan or heater. In addition, Nextruder uses Quick-swap nozzles and has a Hall sensor that detects the end of the filament.

The perfect first layer

Obtaining a perfectly level table is a real challenge for 3D printers. Fortunately, the Prusa MK4 has a strain gauge built into the head that carries out this process automatically. The nozzle touches the table and moves over the grid of measurement points, measuring the distance and calculating the correct offset. The result is a perfect first coat on any surface, with no manual adjustment required.

Operation of the printer interface will not be a problem even for beginners.

Prusa Connect

The MK4 printer is fully supported by Prusa Connect - a platform that allows you to control the device over the Internet . Each connected printer has its own desktop where you can control its operation. For added security, communication between the platform and the printer is encrypted.

User-friendly interface

The printer display has an easy-to-use interface that displays model thumbnails and allows you to control the printing process . Directly below the screen there is a programmable strip of RGB LEDs, which use different colors to indicate the current status of the printer.

Other features of the Prusa MK4 3D printer

• Die-cast aluminum frame
• All-metal filament path, no PTFE tube
• Planetary gear with a ratio of 1:10
• Power panic function
• 4 high precision thermistors

The stable construction of the printer ensures the highest quality printouts.
