Prusa Research, a company specializing in3D printersfor consumers, on Thursday unveiled a new large-format 3D printer.
This increases stability, something a large format 3D printer needs, especially when making tall prints.
Its modular heating system heats smaller cells on the bed as needed, keeping everything flat and even.
The Prusa XL also comes with a new extruder system that Prusa calls the Nextruder.
The Nextruder uses a 20:1 gear ratio to accurately feed the filament through the easily swappable heat block.
The entire Extruder looks repair-friendly, as all of the parts are easy to disassemble.
Only the new Prusa XL uses that system.
The team has also added new information not available at the time of publication.
