Prusa XL Build Thread - Two Head Version  

RE: Prusa XL Build Thread - Two Head Version

Oh darn that's fancy thank you

RE: Prusa XL Build Thread - Two Head Version

The next step is to assemble the LCD and run the wires.  Running the wires was the toughest stap.  It was a pain in the behind.  Once done, below, you can barely see them. 

LCD Installed.  

RE: Prusa XL Build Thread - Two Head Version

Now, you install the upper section.  Again- 8 screws.

You can see the arms that support the print bed.  They are mounted to linear rails.

It is upside down, but at the bottom is the electronics boxes and gantry.  The two long objects are the power supplies.  They are integrated and prewired.  

RE: Prusa XL Build Thread - Two Head Version

No issue.  Any other targeted photos?

is all the electronics like psu and buddy board prewired

RE: Prusa XL Build Thread - Two Head Version

I have been asked I I had any issues.  I have one that is ongoing.  My bed is higher in the back than in the front.  

I did resolve one.  My printer failed to recognize the filament on the second head and thought it was always loaded.  I spent 3 hours on the phone with support sending them photos and videos.  It was a corrupted firmware.  A hard reset, and it fixed itself.  

RE: Prusa XL Build Thread - Two Head Version

Yes.  You have to plug in the fans, XYZ Axis, LCD, and sensors.  It really is mostly complete.   It saved my $500 and was well worth it.

Here is a close-up of the electronics.  

You just have to run the wires in the photo below and plug them in.

The next step is to attach the printer gantry.  Again, about eight screws with the pre-installed Gantry.  The top section or gantry came as a single assembled piece.  

RE: Prusa XL Build Thread - Two Head Version

Next, I installed the bed and placed a box on the sheet to install the print heads.  I missed a few photos, during the build.  The bed instalation required 8 screws.
