A NEW WOODEN CONSTRUCTION SYSTEM THAT COMBINES ROBOTICS AND CRAFTSMANSHIP

The British company Automated Architects (AUAR) has developed an innovative wooden construction system that uses robotics and craftsmanship to create modular, customizable and sustainable homes. The system consists of a robot that aligns wooden panels to form building blocks, which are stacked and assembled with the help of local craftsmen and builders. The result is high-quality, affordable, eco-friendly and beautifully designed living spaces.

The AUAR system is based on the principles of circular design, as the wooden blocks can be disassembled and reused for other purposes, reducing construction waste and environmental impact. In addition, the system allows units to be customized according to the typologies of the site, the lifestyle of the occupants and their aesthetic preferences. Thus, each unit is unique and adapts to the needs of each client.

AUAR has completed its first permanent unit, which will be used as an office and rehearsal studio for a couple of Bristol musicians. The unit has an area of 10 m2 and is built with a customized modular system, which integrates automation, robotics and its own production line. The unit also incorporates sustainable and low-carbon materials, such as a recyclable and non-toxic roof, a rubber floor and cellulose paper insulation.

London-based company AUAR seeks to redefine methods of providing living spaces with its timber construction system that combines robotics and craftsmanship. With this system, AUAR aims to offer an alternative to traditional construction, more efficient, economical and ecological.

Wood construction using robotics has several advantages, both for the sector and for clients. Some of these advantages are:

  • The simplification of processes, since robots can perform complex, precise and repetitive tasks more quickly and efficiently than humans.
  • The digitization of data, which allows improving decision making, quality control, project monitoring and resource optimization.
  • Automation to facilitate management tasks, reducing human errors, delays, waste and costs.
  • Environmental sustainability, since wood is a natural, renewable and recyclable material, which has a low impact on energy consumption and carbon emissions.
  • Personalization and creativity, since robotics allows units to be adapted to the needs and preferences of each client, creating unique, affordable and high-quality living spaces

Conclusion

Wood construction using robotics is an innovative system that offers multiple benefits for the building sector and for clients. This system allows us to simplify, digitize and automate construction processes, improving efficiency, quality and project management. Furthermore, this system uses wood as the main material, which contributes to environmental sustainability and the reduction of the carbon footprint. Finally, this system allows you to customize and create unique, affordable and high-quality living spaces, adapted to the needs and preferences of each client. Wood construction using robotics is an alternative to traditional construction, more efficient, economical and ecological.
