20160107396 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FABRICATION OF CUSTOM MADE MOLDS AND CONCRETE ARCHITECTURAL COMPONENTS - A method and system for constructing an architectural component from a three-dimensional form are disclosed. In a preferred embodiment, the system comprises a movable support table for supporting and moving a three-dimensional form; a multi-task robotic arm having a base end configured for controlled movement along a path proximate the support table and a distal end configured to extend, translate, and/or rotate relative to the base and to include an end effector for applying successive layers of material onto and/or removing material from a form on the support table; optionally, a linear rail to which said base is attached; and a computer processor for controlling a sequence of movements of the support table, the base, and the distal end of said multi-task robotic arm, and for controlling application or removal of material to or from the three-dimensional form to form an architectural component of a predetermined shape and dimension. | 04-21-2016 |
