Researchers from ETH Zurich, Switzerland have fused 3D printing with casting methods to devise an “eggshell” concrete 3D printing process. Combining large-scale robotic Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) 3D printing with the simultaneous casting of a fast-hardening, set-on-demand concrete, enabled the team to produce complex structures in a more material-efficient way. Moreover, casting the fast-hardening concrete […]
