The Rise of Robotisation in Construction: Transforming the Industry
Robotisation is revolutionizing industries across the globe, and construction is no exception. As the sector grapples with challenges like labor shortages, tight project timelines, safety concerns, and the demand for higher productivity, robotics has emerged as a game-changer. Here, we explore the growing impact of robotisation in construction and what it means for the industry's future. Key Areas Where Robots Are Making a Difference 1. Construction Site Automation Robots are taking on repetitive and hazardous tasks on construction sites. Examples include: Bricklaying robots: Machines like the SAM (Semi-Automated Mason) can lay bricks much faster than humans, reducing time and improving consistency. Concrete printing: 3D printing robots can create custom concrete structures, enabling faster and more precise construction. Demolition robots: These machines can safely tear down structures, minimizing risks for human workers. 2. Offsite Manufacturing and Prefabrication ...
