InFormed Ceramics: Multi-axis Clay 3D Printing on Freeform Molds
This paper addresses a novel technique of 3D clay printing using a robotic arm along with the architectural applicability of the proposed fabrication technique. In the initial phase of research, we selected the clay material to be used for printing in consideration of its viscosity and developed the clay extruder customized for the material. In the late phase, to verify how effective the robotic fabrication technique we propose is, we manufactured the freeform foam mold and tested multi-axis clay 3D printing on it by using three end-effectors consecutively: hotwire cutter, spindle, and clay extruder. Also, applying the proposed technique to a larger-scale ceramic structure consisting of nineteen panels, we checked the feasibility of fabricating actual ceramic building components with this technique. If this robotic clay 3D printing technique is improved more and fulfills the demands of the industry in future, it will enable cost-effective ceramic modular fabrication for a customized design in architecture.
