A groundbreaking construction technology is set to make its debut in northern Michigan. During a recent meeting, the Board of Trustees for Northwestern Michigan College (NMC) unanimously approved the acquisition of a state-of-the-art BA-320 3D printer from Build Additive, LLC, a company based in Southfield. This innovative printer combines advanced 3D printing capabilities with traditional masonry techniques, paving the way for a new era in home construction.
The BA-320 is designed to enhance efficiency and sustainability in building practices, allowing for quicker construction times and reduced waste. By utilizing this cutting-edge technology, NMC aims to provide students with hands-on experience in modern construction methods, preparing them for future careers in the evolving field of architecture and engineering.
The introduction of 3D printing into the construction industry is expected to revolutionize how homes are built, offering potential cost savings and increased design flexibility. As northern Michigan embraces this technology, it positions itself at the forefront of innovative building practices.
