Robotic Non-Planar Additive Processes for Complex Curves and Structures

Innovative Robotic Fabrication
Shared by the Avenco team, this showcase demonstrates how advanced robotics enable additive manufacturing of challenging geometries. As seen in the videos, a robotic arm with a heating and clamping tool consolidates carbon-fiber layers, while a gantry system precisely deposits continuous-fiber thermoplastics into intricate shapes.

Complex Geometry in Industrial Applications
With ENCY Robot, engineers and designers in shipbuilding, die & mold production, and the arts can handle large-format additive tasks that involve non-planar surfaces and dynamic layer orientations. The images display prototypes—from hemispherical domes to fedora-styled hats—produced with controlled layer fidelity.

Highlights in Practice
This approach ensures functional strength and enhanced aesthetics, starting from self-printed supports and extending to tailored composite structures. The process is particularly well-suited for producing molds and custom maritime components, as supported by ENCY CAD/CAM software.
