Mixtures, materials

The printer prints with standard sand concrete available for free sale in any construction market. Gypsum, mixtures with mineral additives and fiber can be used (they are also manufactured industrially, all the necessary documents are available). The operating instructions have technological regulations for the mixture, according to which it will not be difficult to prepare the necessary concrete for printing. Also, when buying equipment, we teach you how to prepare working mixtures.

Printers print with standard compositions based on cement of the 400-500 series available for free sale almost everywhere. Accordingly, certificates should be asked from sellers (suppliers).

It is also possible to use mixtures with mineral additives and fiber (they are also mass-produced, all the necessary documents are available). The operating instructions have technological regulations for the mixture, according to which it will not be difficult to prepare the necessary concrete for printing.

There are test reports. They indicate that the characteristics of the mixtures in terms of strength, moisture resistance and frost resistance correspond to those declared by the manufacturers of the mixtures.

Cement, sand – up to 2.5 mm. If you use crushed stone, it should be agglomerated. You can add polyester or glass fiber to increase compressive strength and ensure crack resistance, plasticizers.

The printer can print with standard sand concrete, freely available on any construction market.

In an economical version, the finished mixture is comparable in cost to conventional concrete.

That's pure design decision. The printer lays concrete only, and then what to do with the structure should be decided by designers (to insulate, polish, paint, plaster).

Everything depends on the purpose of the building and the region of construction.

The composition of the mixture can be any. The printer prints with any sand concrete, if you use a mixture of M300 – accordingly, the characteristics will be declared.

Our printers can print with standard M300 sand concrete. Most our buyers do just that.

You can add plasticizers, which are on sale in your region. The addition of polyester and glass fiber gives a slight increase in strength and provides crack resistance of long parts.

That's exactly what the Danes did, catching up with the compressive strength to 350 units.

You can use any non-metallic materials with a fraction of up to 2.5 mm.

Our printers can print with ordinary sand concrete, which is available in every region.

Printers print non-removable formwork from any sand concrete, for example M300. You can add fiber and plasticizer.

The composition is regulated by the project. The purpose of the permanent formwork is to withstand the pouring of ready-mixed or structural concrete, foam concrete into the inner cavity of the wall. External coatings may be present – this will increase moisture resistance and, accordingly, increase frost resistance.

The characteristics of the mortar depend on the composition of the mixture. Accordingly, the finished M300 mixture will give the characteristics declared for this concrete. The operating instructions have technological regulations for the mixture, according to which it will not be difficult to prepare the necessary concrete for printing. When buying equipment, we teach you how to prepare the mixture yourself. Another option is to buy ready-made mixtures from our manufacturing partners. We recommend you to watch our video about mixtures https://youtu.be/0V3H1s1KNU4 

The printer prints with standard M300 sand concrete, i.e. with materials that are freely available on any construction market.

If you use the M300 mixture, the characteristics will completely coincide with the declared ones.

The operating instructions have technological regulations for the mixture, according to which it will not be difficult to prepare the necessary concrete for printing. When buying equipment, we teach you how to prepare the mixture yourself. Another option is to buy ready-made mixtures from our manufacturing partners. We recommend viewing the article 3D mixtures and practical recommendations for printing.

Materials suitable for your conditions must be considered during design. Various materials can be poured into the cavity and laid before pouring. The dew point is calculated during the design.

Yes, the construction printer prints with standard cement-based compounds, i.e. those that can be bought in almost any construction store.
