This Revolutionary Machine Lets You Print The House Of Your Dreams

Technology is being put to work making affordable concrete houses thanks to a cutting-edge 3D printer called “the Vulcan.” There are a variety of 3D printing methods used at construction scale, these include the following main methods: extrusion, powder bonding and additive welding.

3D printing at a construction scale will have a wide variety of applications within the private, commercial, industrial and public sectors. Potential advantages of these technologies include faster construction, lower labor costs, increased complexity and/or accuracy, greater integration of function and less waste produced.

This is an idea which is substantially cheaper than making a house which we know today, also the material used is significantly cheaper along with the fact that you don't need people to actually construct the house. The Vulcan as they call it make the shell of the house and all that is needed are the windows and electrical wires to be installed all the way through the house. They say, that their goal is, the hole process to be machine made.

This means, that the Vulcan will make the house, a robot would build the wiring and a drone would do the painting. There goal is first to produce a house for as little as $4000 US along with helping with housing in 3rd world countries.

What an inspirational idea, would't you say?!
