Bettan – Industrial robot and application for Finja Exakt build system

• This paper reports on efforts to create a robotized construction build system, based on the Finja Exakt manual build system. The equipment used is a generic off-the-shelf industrial arm robot integrated with a spindle crane carrier for mobility. The approach offers technical, safety and usability challenges as well as integration and business challenges for placing a generic industrial robot onsite as part of an automation solution. The question we address is if a robotized build system is a viable niche for industrial robotics in construction. In this paper the question is partially answered by reporting on an industrial robot partially adopted for work on a construction site with evaluation of individual processes in a build system.
