Linking Robotic Hotwirecutting and Assembly » Robots in Architecture Workshop at RMIT

Combining Robotic Processes » Linking hotwirecutting and assembly

• Design an economic, stackable, hot-wirecut structure out of planar EPS blocks (50x30x15cm)
• Create an interactive design tool within Grasshopper for aesthetic and production immanent control
• Use KUKA|prc to integrate the robotic fabrication processes

All projects were developed and fabricated within a 5-day robot workshop at the RMIT Design Hub. The full-scale prototype was designed by Cam Newnham.
Special thanks go to our hardworking and enthusiastic students from RMIT’s architecture program, as well as the RMIT faculty - especially Jane, Andrew, Roland, and Rafael - for their continuous support and for being great hosts.
