Great to share the RC-50 with another group! It truly is a remarkable platform. Thanks again to Megan Kreiger, Samuel Stidwell IV, and the US Army Corps of Engineers for helping with the demo and also sharing their unique capabilities! #3DCP #3DPrinting #Automation #Robotics #AdditiveManufacturing
Very grateful for the opportunity to see (and operate!) the latest in #AdditiveConstruction tech! (aka concrete #3DPrinting). Although not printing actual concrete during the demo, Stephen McEnery of MAC Construction Inc. (Ohio) and I gained a lot of insight on the state of the tech and where there are possibilities for improvement. The platform is a crawler base with outriggers connected to a 50' 5-axis arm with a 6-axis KUKA arm at the end. It was super cool seeing the auto-compensation work with all those degrees of freedom! I think this is a huge step forward to help with the housing crisis with more affordable options. Thank you very much Matthew Friedell & Chris Gilman at Robotic Construction Technologies, Inc. for setting this up for us. Thank you very much Megan Kreiger & Samuel Stidwell IV at US Army Corps of Engineers at Army CERL (Construction Engineering Research Lab in Champaign, IL) for allowing us to be there and for the tour. #AdditiveManufacturing
