Ou pleasure! Private message us if you will be at the World of conrete next week! We would love to chit chat about the crazy places this industry will take us :)
Could you print a headstone with all of the writing on it? How much would it cost for a small one? I wander through cemeteries sometimes, and many of the oldest stones are illegible. I think replacement headstones would be a good market for you if the process was not too expensive.
Amazing! Are you using fast hardening concrete? or is the mortar mix really dense so it stands the weight of the upper layers? Congrats on the records!
Hi Ignacio, Yes, these mortars are quick setting and have very specific rheological properties which reduce slump. Advances in materials keep pushing the limits of what we can print.
Wow. The robotic toolpath developed to print an arch is pure genius. What is maximum span you can achieve with your current mixture and strategy? Have you thought about incorporating any localised reinforcement to help increase the span?
Thanks! This was the span which worked for that particular design but we can most likely do even better! Reinforcment can definitely improve curing propoerties and final properties so the limits can be pushed even further. :)
I see a serious shortage of Mason and concrete sand. Are there alternatives. Can old concrete be ground-up and used in lew of sand or as a percentage of mix design.
Mix design including recycled aggregates are being tested by a few companies in the industry already yes. The materials portion of the equation will be evolving to a high degree over the next decade.
@@teknoman3425 not too much more! the only difference is slightly more powerful axis servos. **The figure of 8kW is actual power consumption not nameplate power consumption which is much higher.

Never disappointing. Always very cool things to see here. Thanks for posting it!

@@twente-am Will do!
arches are really amazing
Just Amazing
awesome!

So very cool! You guys are very talented! Kootenay talent!
Thanks!

amzaing job you did hope the future coming soon
Thanks!
Nice. Does the robot damages the middle arch a bit at 2:29?
It was the loose hoses that bumped in a few places. Probably could use a housing for the nozzle.
Okay, @2:09 I was really impressed by that

Hi, really coooool, and could you publish the printing materials?
Hi Cody, The Print Materials from this video is the Printcrete from Baumit.
@@twente-am thanks for your kind reply, could you provide the link, I didn't find it online.
@@ericjing7532 send us an email at info@twente-am.com
And then after pumping a ton of concrete you suddenly have a layer shift...
How much watt electric does use that concrete printer? Please answer
It consumes approximately 8kW on average.
@@twente-am okay and for big one ? For example making big buildings

How much do you sell them?
Depends on the size and type, send us an email if you need a quote. info@twente-am.com
Oh wow, very cool! I have a slightly smaller printer LOL check out some of my prints 😉
Это круто👍
