Title
Optimized Design To Robotic Production: Integrating Multipoint Forming And Free Form Material Deposition In The Mass Customization Of Double Curved Facades
Abstract
The mass customization of double curved facade panels is still in its infancy, in spite of recent efforts in panel manufacturing techniques. As these techniques have typically developed workarounds for curved facade manufacturing, they present challenges regarding economic feasibility, facade surface continuity, accuracy and waste reduction. We present an optimized design-to-robotic production approach that integrates multipoint forming and adjustable moulds together with robotic free form material deposition to produce mass customizable double curved facade panels. We argue that our approach generates customizable panels with complex geometry, and optimizes fabrication workflow, with minimum waster and maximum accuracy in representing irregular forms.[GRAPHICS].
