Chinese WinSu has just accomplished the incredible feat of creating an entire building from a 3D printer on a vast scale. After its trial of creating houses, the Chinese company is firmly intent on proving that this new technology represents the future of construction.
A large need for aluminum
Cette nouveauté pourrait être une bonne nouvelle pour le secteur de l’aluminium car il est à l’origine du métal en poudre créé pour faire la structure de ces habitations de plus ou moins grands modèles. La composition de ce métal spécifique demande un grand nombre de manipulations afin de pouvoir imprimer.
This innovation could be good news for the aluminum sector because it is the source of the metal powder created to make the structure of these dwellings of varying sizes. The composition of this specific metal requires a large number of processing steps in order to be printable.
This new generation of buildings should be approached with caution because if it could be responsible for an explosion in aluminum demand, being responsible for an explosion in aluminum demand, steel, for its part, would be obliged to bear the consequences while it is present in large quantities in current constructions.
A feat rather than a project
Concern has not yet seized builders and metal producers because the result obtained is considered more as a technological success than as an example to follow for the future. The solidity of constructions of this type seems to raise questions in terms of safety for potential occupants, so the revolution is not about to arrive.
Nevertheless, the various metal producers should take this news as a warning because progress in different fields could lead to relegating metals to the background. In general, each metal must seek new areas in which to excel and help advance society. Resting on past achievements leads to watching the capabilities of a 3D printer capable of completely replacing builders and their techniques in a matter of minutes.
