Abstract: Flexible molds have an elastic membrane supported by modules, arranged next to one another along a horizontal longitudinal axis of the mold. Each module has traction units, each forming a respective group with a respective thrust unit, with the groups arranged opposite one another at a preset distance. Pairs of traction units are arranged opposite one another in a direction perpendicular to the axis, and the respective thrust units thereof are arranged therebetween. The modules hold the membrane with the mold via reinforced eyelets distributed on both edges parallel to the axis. Each traction unit has linear actuators arranged horizontally and another linear actuator arranged vertically, which together enable movement. The membrane is previously deformed according to an approximation of the prior design of a part to be molded, and prestressed according to a mathematical prediction of the deformation thereof after receiving a conglomerate in liquid or plastic state.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a walking robotic cell for the manufacture of on-site printed buildings using a multi-axis 3D printing system, and a method for operating said walking robotic cell. The walking robotic cell comprises a quadruped mobile robotic system acting autonomously and remotely operated, a feeding device, and a multi-axis actuator, which is a reprogrammable electromechanical system, automatically controlled, and programmable offline or online in all its degrees of freedom from an external or remote computer.

Abstract: Device for cutting double curvature surfaces into expanded polystyrene foam volumes comprising a first pair of linear guides; over each of the linear guides two pairs of plates arranged over skids are moving, where a horizontal beam connects each pair of plates; the two pairs of plates and the pair of horizontal beams; a block of material supported on the plates is displaced by a first pair by of step motors simultaneously activated; where the block of material in its movement faces a rectangular frame which is arranged perpendicularly to the movement path of the block, with the rectangular frame having a fixed position and a flexible foil, which is covered with a sheath of thermal and electrical insulation, over which a resistive heating wire is helically wound where electrical current heats the wire and vaporizes the zone previous to physical contact with the block of material during displacement.

Abstract: Device for cutting expanded polystyrene foam volumes or the like, obtaining double-curvature surfaces, comprising a first pair of linear guides; over each of the linear guides two pairs of plates arranged over skids are moving, where each pair of plates is connected by a horizontal beam; the two pairs of plates and the pair of horizontal beams allow supporting and fixing a block of material of expanded polystyrene foam or the like for cutting; the block of material supported on the plates is displaced by a first pair of synchronous belts and pulleys, which are driven by a first pair of step motors, which are simultaneously activated; where the block of material in its movement faces a rectangular frame which is arranged perpendicularly to the movement path of the block, with said rectangular frame having a fixed position and a flexible foil, which is covered with a sheath of thermal and electrical insulation, over which a resistive heating wire is helically wound, through which an electrical current circulate
