measurements for xl structure 5 extruders
Good morning everyone, I wanted to know if any of you have created a structure for an XL5 extruder... I need to know what size the base must have... considering that the coils are placed on the sides... and if you have some photos, thanks

I published a fairly detailed model of the XL that may be of some use.

Thank you but I didn't mean about enclosures... but about space if I have to make a table

The model is of the XL itself. It can be used to derive the measurements quite easily.

Where did you place it?

It's a model in Printables. I already supplied the link.
As far as table size, it's a fairly large unit and consumes about a 2'x2' square (600x600mm). I think one of the most important things about your support structure (aka table) is that it's extremely heavy and sturdy. The XL moves a lot of mass around fast so the forces imparted to the table are significant. Damping out those motions with a heavy and sturdy table will result in better printing results and finer details.
My table moves too much and weighs in at around 250 lbs (100kg) and that's not enough.
