Computerized production robot for additive manufacturing in civil engineering

增材制造在土木工程中的重要性不断提高。然而，由于缺乏提高增材制造建筑构件的生产率和质量所需的方法和过程，因此无法充分发挥其潜力。到目前为止，建筑、工程和建筑行业从增材制造的潜力中受益的程度相对较小。本项目申请的计算机化生产机器人旨在为土木工程增材制造的多学科基础和应用研究工作提供催化剂。除了生产机器人（“主设备”）外，还应用了其他组件（如传感技术和工业pc），以促进解决有关增强部件增材制造的关键研究问题，将智能传感器集成到增材制造过程中，以及开发数字模型和接口。这项主要研究仪器的应用是魏玛包豪斯大学和伊尔梅瑙工业大学的不同主席和研究所的联合倡议，他们在土木工程、材料科学、结构工程、结构力学和生产技术的计算方面具有核心竞争力。

The importance of additive manufacturing in civil engineering is continuously growing. However, the full potential cannot be exploited due to a lack of methods and processes required to improve the productivity and quality of additively manufactured building components. The architecture, engineering, and construction industry, so far, benefits to a relatively small extent from the potential of additive manufacturing. The computerized production robot applied for in this project is intended to serve as a catalyst for multi-disciplinary basic and applied research efforts in additive manufacturing in civil engineering. In addition to the production robot (“main device”), other components (such as sensing technology and industrial PCs) are applied for to facilitate solving critical research questions regarding additive manufacturing of reinforced components, integration of intelligent sensors into additive manufacturing processes, and development of digital models and interfaces. This application for major research instrumentation is a joint initiative of different chairs and institutes of Bauhaus University Weimar and Technical University Ilmenau with core competencies in computing in civil engineering, material sciences, structural engineering, structural mechanics, and production technologies.
