Abstract

Architecture Arts & Humanities Computer Science Computer Science, Interdisciplinary Applications Science & Technology Technology
We present the initial findings of our research project aiming at development of a 3D-printing process for wood composites. The 3D-printing method employed is based on material extrusion principle and utilizes industrial robotics for position and motion control. The unique characteristic of our approach is in the development of the where we employ exclusively organic components for both the matrix and reinforcement; a decision informed by prioritizing environmental considerations.
