US firm unveils robots that can 3D-print entire homes
Cazza’s robotic builders use 3D-printing technology to create structures of up to three storeys.
미 '카자'Cazza'가 3D 프린팅으로 완전한 건물을 건설할 수 있는 로봇을 개발했다.
이 로봇은 주택 뿐 아니라 빌라, 사무실 빌딩 등을 건설할 수 있으며 Cazza X1 mobile
트랙모델은 3층 높이의 건물을 건설할 수 있다.
카자사는 공기 경제성 내구성 면에서 기존 방법보다 뛰어나다고 말하고 있다.

Cazza has launched a line of automated construction machines capable of 3D-printing entire buildings.
The robots are capable of constructing entire houses, villas, office buildings, and other structures. The Cazza X1 mobile tracked model is able to build structures of up to three storeys in height.
The US-headquartered construction automation firm claims that its machines are faster, cheaper, and more sustainable than conventional methods.
The Cazza robots use an in-house blend of concrete, formulated for additive manufacturing, to transform digital models into physical structures. The machines use less than half the concrete typically required to build equivalent structures, according to the company.
A statement released by the company said: “This announcement by Cazza is a landmark in the race to bring commercial 3D-printing construction systems to market. As of today, Cazza is the only company with a commercial construction robot of this nature on offer to the public.”
Cazza was founded in Silicon Valley by Chris Kelsey and Fernando de Los Rios. The company has already tested its 3D-printing technologies in Dubai’s high ambient temperatures.
While Cazza is not limiting orders, production quantities are restricted. Only 30 machines of each type will be available during the first round of production.
The robotic builders are now available for purchase globally via the company’s website.
