Overview
Toolchanging heads on a CoreXY gantry let the Prusa XL switch between materials or colors within one job. A Nextruder with a Loadcell sensor sets the first layer, and a segmented heated bed heats in zones to cut warping on large prints.
Multi-material and full-color parts in one job are what this machine exists for, and the large bed handles big prototypes. Expect a heavy unit that ships partly disassembled, with no stated nozzle temperature or filament list to plan materials against.
Who it's for
Engineering teams and studios that need mixed colors or mixed materials in one large part get the most from the toolchanger. Casual users printing small single-color models would leave most of the machine idle.
Pros and cons
- Up to five materials in one job
- Large cube build volume
- Segmented bed reduces warping on big prints
- Loadcell sensor for first-layer calibration
- Nozzle temperature and filament list not given
- Several parts must be installed on arrival
- Heavy unit needs a sturdy bench
- Large footprint for a home desk
Performance notes
Quality on multi-material jobs depends on clean tool changes, and smart tool management limits waste between materials. Input Shaper and Pressure Advance on the embedded platform hold accuracy at speed, while the Loadcell sensor supports the first layer across the whole surface. The segmented bed reduces warping on large footprints.
