ADVANCED MACHINERY

Advanced Machinery focuses on one fundamental driver of the customization process in the construction sector: the use of advanced digitally controlled fabrication tools. The utilization of sophisticated digitally controlled fabrication tools is the primary subject of Advanced Machinery, which examines this important aspect of the customizing process in the construction industry. Architectural systems produced to order require specialized fabrication techniques, which are detailed in order to aid the designer in incorporating fabrication characteristics into a design using parametric tools. The three basic typologies of CNC equipment, robotic fabrication, and additive manufacturing are examined. This classification shows a unique strategy that the design team should use for the project while taking into account the various production technologies. Particularly with the use of robots, there is a transition away from specialized industrial production methods like adaptable machinery. This has the potential to fundamentally alter how mass customization is currently understood, enabling experimentation on the part of architects.

By enabling architects to experiment endlessly with a wide range of technological and aesthetically pleasing solutions, this has the potential to completely transform the way that mass customization is currently understood. Additionally, additive manufacturing has been rapidly evolving in recent years to meet the needs of the AEC, primarily in two ways: to produce components and sub-components that can be assembled and joined to form larger structures, and to “print” massive and independent architectural elements as a whole. A significant amount of work is being done to create large-scale 3D printers, and at the same time, various materials and tectonics with useful features are being experimented with. the aspect of the customizing process in the construction industry.
