Robot technology revolutionizes timber construction
Two KUKA KR 500 FORTEC robots manufacture innovative lightweight timber construction components for a
pavilion for the Bundesgartenschau. The ICD of the University of Stuttgart has developed the robotic
manufacturing solution in collaboration with system integrator BEC. Robotic solutions such as these have the
potential to be a game-changer for the timber construction industry, which has only made limited use of
automated production processes until now.
