Flower power timber robots: How robots can revolutionize architecture and timber industry

Efficient, cost-effective, precise – KUKA robots can offer these benefits and many more when manufacturing timber components. Two KR 500 FORTEC KUKA robots manufacture innovative lightweight timber construction components for a pavilion for the Bundesgartenschau horticulture show. The ICD of the University of Stuttgart has developed the robotic manufacturing solution in collaboration with system integrator BEC. Robotic solutions such as these have the potential to be a game-changer for the timber construction industry, which has only made limited use of automated production processes until now.
