Ireland: Construction company Harcourt Technologies used COBOD's gantry-mounted 3D for a three-unit social housing development in Dundalk, County Louth. Voxel Matters News has reported that the equipment reduces construction times by 67% and labour requirements by 33% for projects of this kind. Delivery of the homes is scheduled for October 2024.
Harcourt Technologies’ managing director Justin Kinsella said "It’s like building a concrete block wall, but the machine lays 50mm layers instead of manual placement. As architects and engineers, we design the building digitally, and the model guides the printer to extrude the material layer by layer."
