The 3d visuals of this printer have been on the internet for more than a year but there are still no pictures and movies of a working version.
Concrete printing is not new so I wonder what is keeping them from building the printer over a year later.
- oilytheotter 13y agoDid you see the video and pictures of the printer in the video? It wasn't full scale, but it wasn't far off either.
- ohwp 13y agoYes I've seen the video's (a year ago). That's why I wonder why they didn't built a house already. They have the knowledge and tech. Some speculation: maybe it's very hard to print concrete out in the open with all kinds of weather messing up the print. Or companies just don't believe in the benefits so investors are hard to find.
- jared314 13y agoI remember reading that D-Shape[1] had clogging problems with their printer. Perhaps CC has the same issue. [1] http://www.d-shape.com/tecnologia.htm http://www.d-shape.com/tecnologia.htm
