LARGE SCALE ROBOTIC SYSTEM
PLATYPUS X8
GUARANTEED QUALITY
ADVANCED HOME CONSTRUCTION
The PLATYPUS X8 3D Concrete Printer is at the forefront of the fourth industrial revolution. Complete for reliable and quality results in large scale projects. Powered with an advanced software package and the TURISOPS proprietary extruding mechanism, this printer can construct profiles with complex geometries of up to 3 metre in height, and 8 metres width, including unlimited length.
PLATYPUS X8 is able to print large structures/homes in single prints, with vast possibilities through freedom in design.
This enables home builders and construction companies, both large and small, to optimise their operations and have an edge to compete for more geometrically demanding projects while remaining financially feasible. PLATYPUS... levels the playing field.
