Youth from Xàtiva Travel to Denmark to Train in 3D Building Printing
Five young people from Xàtiva have been selected for an exciting training opportunity in Denmark, thanks to a collaboration between the Rotary Club Xàtiva and COBOD International, a leader in 3D printing for construction. This initiative, Scholarships to Build the Future, will allow them to immerse themselves in cutting-edge technologies to erect real structures with giant concrete printers. Literally building the future! 🏗️
Technical Training with a Sustainable Future
During their stay, the scholarship recipients will learn about 3D printing at architectural scale, parametric design, eco-efficient materials, and automation on site. The training will take place in COBOD's real facilities, using specialized software such as Rhino + Grasshopper, Revit, and the company's proprietary systems to control the layer extrusion process.
- Architectural 3D Printing: Learn to handle large-scale printers.
- Parametric Design: Create adaptable and efficient designs.
- Eco-efficient Materials: Use sustainable materials in construction.
A Bet on Innovation from the Local Level
This scholarship represents a firm step toward a highly demanded professional profile: the digital technician in sustainable construction. It connects Valencian youth talent with a sector that, although it seems like science fiction, is already a reality. The learning is not only technical but also focuses on sustainability and scalability for future affordable housing.
Thanks to COBOD, the new 21st-century bricklayers won't carry bricks, but .gcode files. And if the concrete fails, perhaps the Grasshopper node flow needs to be reviewed. A future where construction and technology go hand in hand! 💻
This initiative not only opens doors to new job opportunities but also places Xàtiva on the map of innovation in sustainable construction. A bright future ahead! ✨
