COBOD Releases World's First Configurator for 3D Construction Printing

COBOD International has launched the first live and 3D visualized configurator to create 3D construction printers.

With the world's first configurator for 3D construction printers, made by COBOD International, contractors and developers can now estimate the time to 3D print a specific building and calculate the amount of concrete materials needed. For instance, the configurator shows layer by layer how the printer can build a 170 m² (1.900 square feet) villa in just 26 hours.

Users can adjust printer length, width, and height, before then seeing the printer in action printing one of pre-selected building options.

The company has developed both an app and browser version of the configurator.

According to the consulting company McKinsey, there is a potential for doubling productivity in the construction industry by realizing the automation potential. A potential that has made the global construction industry keenly aware of how robotic 3D printers may become standard equipment at the construction sites of tomorrow.
