3D concrete printing

3D concrete printing is the application of additive manufacturing processes with concrete as the raw material. A nozzle extrudes a concrete mixture and the structure is built up layer by layer. Larger components, but also entire houses or buildings can be produced with this technology.

The advantages here are a significantly shorter construction time and less manpower. In addition, there are significant material savings in buildings produced using the 3D concrete printing process. With the help of additive manufacturing technologies in the construction industry, unique building possibilities are made possible that can be produced with a 3D concrete printer without any additional effort.

Prerequisites for use

Stable foundation for the printer

In order for the concrete 3D printer to work accurately, it needs a stable foundation and must be calibrated at the beginning.

Knowledge of requirements for the filling material

Depending on the requirements and intended use, the filling material (the concrete) can be individually adapted.
