Technology
TesserianTech printing system is conceived to print structures in any place, on Earth as like on Moon and Mars, without any human intervention. The key points for the capabilities of the system are freedom of movement, extrusion technique and system framework. The system is made of:
Team of robots:
- units work synergistically to print a complete structure.
- having total freedom of movement in space.
- no limit to the size or design that have to be printed.
Several teams can cooperate on the same project:
- the printing speed results scalable.
- possibility to print large projects on site within a reasonable time.
- no needs to divide the project into parts like prefabricated modules.
With our system:
- no need to produce printers of different sizes or with different printing capacities depending on the use.
- have the advantages of on-site printing with the adaptability of off-site printing without the respective disadvantages.
All these capabilities are possible thanks to hybrid hard-soft robots, new construction materials and a new extrusion technology, in particular TesserianTech is the only one that use two techniques combined applied by robots fully controlled by AI.
Sustainable
The precise use of material and the topological optimisation of the shape of the structure allow our printing system to significantly reduce the amount of material waste that comes typically from materials discarded during the construction process and of the excessive amount of material due to over-engineering adopted for faster construction and lower labour costs.
The consequence of this reduction of waste reduces the carbon footprint of the entire building. This system also reduces the additional carbon emissions compared to off-site production, which needs a more complex and impactful logistics system to transport parts from the factory to the site.
Safe
Our fully autonomous system ensures that humans are not involved in placing the reinforcement, which is the most dangerous phase of construction with the highest number of injuries of any other phase, bringing unmatched safety to the site. In addition, workers are no longer forced to work on dangerous grounds full of obstacles, such as the slab before pouring the concrete, which will reduce the risk of accidents due to accidental falls. Replacing heavy machinery with smaller and lighter robots and automated systems also guarantees increased safety for the surrounding areas of construction sites located in areas with high vehicle and human traffic.
Cost-effective
The Tesseriantech system can replace a large number of different tools and machines usually used in the construction industry, which saves their cost and the cost of material no longer needed thanks to topology optimisation. The use of robots that maintain a constant construction speed and greater accuracy also increases productivity and saves labour costs.
Reliable
An apparatus that constantly analyses the extruded material and the precision of its laying is built in the Tesseriantech's extruders. This makes our product a reliable system in ensuring the higher quality of the finished product with the greatest consistency possible, leading to superior structural integrity and durability of the building.
