INTRODUCING BOD2
BOD2 is an upgraded and improved version of the printer which
was used to 3D print the first building in Europe, The BOD.
Based on the experience obtained with the BOD printer, the BOD2 incorporates improved functionality and stability compared to the first version. It is build on the same proven principles as the BOD printer. This assures the customer of a tested and proven system.
2. generation
BOD2 is the only second generation construction printer on the market.Modular construction printer
BOD2 is developed to fit any project. Decide the size of BOD2 by its modules – add modules to fit the projects specifications.Print speed
BOD2 is 3x faster than the first generation, with a 18 meter/minute print speed.Gantry system
The gantry system is optimal for in situ projects as well as fabrication of elements off site.Interchangeable nozzle system
New optimised nozzles are developed to insure smooth surfaces. Standard layer height is 2 cm, and 5 cm in width.Flexibility
Beside the modular system, the BOD2 is flexible in terms of mounting. It can be mounted to the foundation or to movable concrete pillars.
FIRST IN EUROPE
We 3D printed the first building in Europe, to demonstrate how far the technology had come. The building was constructed in Copenhagen and acts as an office space for the harbor industry surrounding it.
MATERIAL
In collaboration with FORCE Technology, we have developed a strong and sustainable recipe for the concrete mix, utilizing recycled materials.
FREE FORMS
One of the big advantages 3D construction printing brings to the table is the free forms in the architecture – the printer doesn’t care if the walls are straight or bend.
COST
Due to the speed, material, and low labor requirements, the cost of a 3D printed building is relatively low compared to standard constructed buildings.
TAKE PART IN THE FUTURE
Our goal is to provide visionary companies and universities with the right tools to construct the buildings of our future, share our knowledge and spread the information we continue to obtain during our research.
If you want to 3D print the buildings of the future, get in touch and let us explain how we can help you.
LATEST PRESS
Danish university awards COBOD tender for BOD2 construction 3D printer
Construction 3D printing startup COBOD International has been building a solid reputation for itself since it was founded as a spin-off of 3D Printhuset last September. Following a series of announcements, including the first EU tender for a construction 3D printer and new distributors for its BOD2 construction 3D printer, COBOD has announced the receipt of its second European tender.
Massive interest for COBOD 3D construction printers at bauma
Before the bauma COBOD International had announced a new exclusive distribution agreement with PERI for Germany, Austria and Switzerland. COBOD followed up on that by being present at the huge 5.000 m2 PERI stand that received almost 30.000 visitors daily. COBOD’s part of the PERI stand received massive interest and was constantly crowded with representatives from the conventional construction industry interested in the new technology.
