Tukkari TLX White - 3D Printer Enclosure for Prusa i3 MK3/MK4 with MMU
This enclosure is specifically designed for the Prusa i3 MK3/MK4 3D printer with MMU unit. It maintains the standard size of our popular TLX enclosure series, but features a height extension to provide sufficient clearance for the Prusa MK3/MK4 printer and MMU unit.
Benefits of Using an Enclosure for Your 3D Printer
- Helps combat VOCs and microparticles generated by your 3D printer.
- Stable temperature inside the enclosure improves the quality of your 3D printing.
- Reduces noise.
- Provides dust protection for your printer and improves 3D printing safety.
Why Choose Our Enclosure?
- You're buying direct from the manufacturer.
- TLX enclosures feature a rigid assembly made of 5mm extruded clear acrylic sheets and 18 mm melamine-faced panels, ensuring excellent strength and stability.
- Our laser cutting technology ensures clear and polished edges on all acrylic parts.
- We use only the highest quality materials and components.
- This is the most complete enclosure kit on the market. Everything you need to get your enclosure up and running is included. There are no extra charges for additional options or features.
Key Features:
- Front door with dual magnet door catch allows for easy left or right hand installation.
- The wide, barrier-free front door allows the 3D printer to be set up and removed quickly and easily without disassembly or modification.
- There's no need to position the printer power supply outside the enclosure. The enclosure comes with a PSU ventilation shaft.
- The clear acrylic panels of the enclosure provide a completely unobstructed view of your 3D printing.
- Cable inlets with swivel covers are positioned on both the left and right sides.
- The combined carbon/HEPA filter is located in the filter housing at the rear of the enclosure.
- For active airflow, any standard 120mm fan can be attached to the filter system. (The fan is not included.) You can find further details on optional fan installation and selecting the appropriate fan for your enclosure in the "Optional Installations" section.
- The height of the enclosure allows for the use of Prusa MK3/MK4 with the MMU unit. However, since filament buffers come in various shapes, it's up to the user's preference where to place them. For this reason, there's no specific location on the enclosure designated for attaching the buffer.
- NEW: Now, you have the option to choose between a fixed filament holder with an aluminum shaft for filament spools up to 1 kg or a filament holder with bearings for spools up to 2 kg (refer to illustrations below). Simply make your selection when adding the enclosure to your shopping basket.

How to install a fan in TLX enclosures
TLX enclosures are prepared for optional installation of a standard 120mm fan. Installing a fan is a useful and inexpensive upgrade if you want to add active airflow through the included combined carbon and HEPA filter. Four M4/40mm Allen screws are included to securely mount the fan to the rear of your enclosure.
Not all users will find it necessary to install the fan, depending on their specific application. Therefore, the decision to add a fan is up to the user. The fan is not included in the kit, but can easily be added at a later time if needed.
You can use any standard 120mm 12V PC fan or a 5V USB fan. 5V USB fans are especially convenient because they can be plugged into any USB port. Some also come with an on/off switch or fan speed controller. You can buy your fan locally from computer stores or online platforms like Amazon. Just search for "5V USB 120mm fan" in these stores.
Tip: The optional fan can be installed on either side.
Want to install a fan inside the enclosure? The enclosure is designed for this option as well. You'll only need four 30mm M4 screws to mount the fan.

Carbon/HEPA Filter Replacement:
Your enclosure comes with one combined HEPA/carbon filter. If you are using your 3D printer on a daily basis, you will typically need to change the filter every 3-6 months. Rest assured that we always have replacement filters in stock, so you can always get a replacement filter directly from us. The price is 10 USD per piece. We ship them economically by air in small packets for 9.50 USD, and up to 3 filter replacement kits can be placed in one packet.
