CyBe’s three distinct pillars – technology, process innovation, and social prosperity – work in tandem towards creating a healthier organization. This distinctive blend of principles signifies CyBe’s position in the construction industry.
CyBe is the world market leader in 3D concrete printing with proprietary hardware, software, and printing materials. With these tools, CyBe is working in partnership and pushing boundaries with Lab040 in Eindhoven to build the first-ever, 3D-printed four-storey apartment.
High-capacity construction
Prefabricated Prefinished Volumetric Construction (PPVC) is a method of constructing complete and finished units off-site for on-site installation. Making use of this modular construction technology, 3D units are manufactured in controlled factory settings with optimized construction techniques and building tools.
The modules can be delivered to the construction site in a variety of states – from basic structural blocks to fully finished apartments complete with amenities. The assembly process is quick and maintains the concrete’s inherent benefits such as providing fire resistance, sound absorption, and thermal mass.
CyBe’s New environmental and cost-effective standard of living
It generates living solutions that support people and the environment. Its maximal Energy Performance Coefficient (EPC) is 0.2, setting the benchmark at an industry low-down. This amount transforms to reduced costs in, water, gas, and light – in some circumstances to zero. This also signifies low CO2 emissions – the procedure can even be oxygen positive.
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
CyBe’s holistic business model marks several of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), such as SDG 11, Sustainable Cities, and Communities. It employs a micro and macro approach to assure that cities and other communities are designed to be safe, resilient, inclusive, and sustainable. This is apparent through the company’s application of economic and environmentally inclined building technologies, and by way of their community-focused programs and initiatives.
A better approach to creating PPVC modules
The CyBe G Gantry is a 3D concrete printer that can print wherever in the interior of an established three-dimensional zone. It can be set up on-site, but it is best suitable for printing large modules, such as completed apartments, in an off-site factory location. This system is a steady setup of four columns and three beams and is optimal for PPVC construction.
The Gantry’s rapid and large-scale capabilities make it optimal for printing multi-unit, multi-storey buildings with PPVC. Printing off-site with the Gantry system, modular PPVC units can be constantly printed in the factory unit and then carried and connected on-site.
With this procedure, installation activities are moved off-site, designing a better factory atmosphere with lowered dust and noise pollution. The on-site assembly process is also streamlined with PPVC, necessitating less manpower and ensuring a safer construction environment.
3D concrete printing
Future-driven businesses in the construction industry have their visions set on 3D concrete printing. It’s an effective technique of building that minimizes labor costs and maximizes production. Specifically, in a housing dearth period, 3D concrete printers bring phenomenal significance to the construction industry.
3D concrete printing is an optimal way to create Prefabricated Prefinished Volumetric Construction (PPVC). PPVC is a system of building finished and completed units in an off-site location and then installing them into place on-site. CyBe Construction’s PPVC system is exclusively created for 3D concrete printing and reduces traditional construction costs by one-half.
Experience in the construction industry
CyBe is the legacy of Hendriks Construction Ltd. a family firm founded by Al in 1975. Preceded by Berry Hendriks, its avant-garde 3D printing method to construction affirmed its own professional incorporation and in 2013, CyBe and CyBe Construction were founded. Thereupon, the first 3D concrete printing software, hardware, and materials were created for industrial use.
Both Hendriks and CyBe Construction share a vision for an improved society – this vision is in the genetic code of the CyBe organization. For CyBe, this involves enabling firms to create faster with fewer resources, generating affordable, sustainable, and environmentally resilient constructions.
CyBe offers 3D concrete printers internationally and is the leading 3D printing contractor in the Netherlands. In addition to 3D concrete printers, the company generates the finest proprietary tools containing Chysel and Artysan software, CyBe Mortar, and the CyBe Lybrary learning platform. The company also presents design and engineering services to clients. This holistic approach streamlines the complex construction process and creates more effective workflows. It permits firms to construct with 3D printing and benefit from quicker and more sustainable production.
CyBe Mortar is a stand-out in the 3D construction arena. Creating locally considerably lowers transportation costs and lowers CO2 emissions by 32%. CyBe Mortar sets in only three minutes and accomplishes structural strength in one hour. This causes a high-speed and effective printing process to reduce costs and a sustainable outcome.
