Additive manufacturing machine for test specimens for architectural constructions

Abstract

This invention relates to the design of an additive manufacturing machine for test specimens for architectural constructions. This machine is designed to assist civil engineering laboratory personnel in 3D printing construction samples of various shapes, structures, and materials in order to test their performance. It can also be used for research and development of 3D-printed structures and / or for the manufacture of decorative elements and panels. The machine is equipped with three motorized carriages (longitudinal, transverse, and vertical), which are mobile relative to the chassis, allowing for precise positioning of the injection nozzles. These nozzles can operate separately or simultaneously to inject different construction materials. Each of the three injection nozzles has a separate feed system for the construction materials. The machine is electrically powered and equipped with a propulsion system. An onboard electronic module manages the system's operation.
