A tireless long-distance mason who gets the job done. 10 square meters of masonry work per hour, up to a height of 3.25 meters. WLTR accomplishes what a 5-person masonry team does.
An absolute perfectionist, uncompromisingly precise. Laying robot-compatible bricks according to a virtual wall model. WLTR communicates via tablet and works with consistently precise quality.
An unstoppable workaholic who knows no rest breaks. In operation day and night, in all weather, never tired or sick. You can always count on WLTR.
A real doer who achieves a lot and needs little. Aimed at maximum efficiency, requires only electricity and water. WLTR increases productivity and reduces costs.
Construction robotics brings numerous improvements to the construction industry, significantly impacting efficiency, safety, and quality of work.
Their deployment on construction sites enhances the industry's image and increases the attractiveness of construction jobs, partially addressing the current skilled labor shortage.
While the masonry robot builds a long, straight wall, construction workers can focus on other aspects of the project.
The masonry robot works with high precision and consistency. Each brick is placed with machine accuracy according to project specifications, eliminating human error and ensuring consistent quality of work.
WLTR significantly increases the pace of work compared to the manual process. The masonry robot works continuously without breaks at a constant speed, leading to higher productivity on the construction site.
Automated bricklaying reduces manual work and thus lowers labour costs. WLTR is effective even in the harshest weather conditions, leading to long-term savings.
Masonry robots can reduce the hazards associated with working on construction sites and at heights, preventing work accidents. The implementation of safety features eliminates human failure.
WLTR is not limited by working hours or the physical constraints of human labor. It can work multiple shifts, speeding up the progress of construction projects.
Thanks to precise control and planning, the masonry robot optimizes the use of building materials. WLTR places the bricks with great precision based on a module with 125 mm increments. This design eliminates the need to cut bricks, resulting in minimal waste and cost savings.
The masonry robot is equipped with sensors and cameras that allow detailed documentation and monitoring of work status. This provides valuable data for monitoring project progress and optimizing work processes.
WLTR works cleanly, precisely, efficiently, and quickly.
A cross-line laser is used to align the masonry robot. WLTR uses it and its sensors to monitor the horizontal alignment of the wall and other parameters specified by the operator.
After completing the surveying, WLTR picks up two bricks at a time from the front, facilitated by specially developed grooves on the brick faces. Using its sensors, the masonry robot detects damaged bricks and alerts the operator. If the bricks on the pallet are misaligned and cannot be picked up simultaneously, it picks them up individually.
In the next step, the masonry robot wets the surface of the bricks and applies Porotherm Dryfix foam in two strips according to the manufacturer’s instructions using the nozzles at the front of the machine. The container for two adhesive foam cartridges is located inside the robot in a moderately heated space.
In the next phase, the masonry robot places the bricks into the wall with machine precision, using a laying plan or virtual model of the wall structure. Using this plan, it can inform the supporting worker in advance about necessary adjustments, such as openings in the wall or the need to fit a cut brick. These tasks fall under the responsibility of the human. WLTR repeats the laying process until the bricks are used up or it reaches the maximum range.
When WLTR runs out of bricks, the supporting worker removes the empty pallet and places a new one at the location determined by the robot’s laser. Alternatively, WLTR can start grabbing bricks from a second pallet.
When the masonry robot reaches the maximum range, it does not need to be moved manually, as it can move independently along the built wall. WLTR lifts itself using a hydraulic device and slides the base to the next position. It then continues with further masonry work.
If the masonry robot needs to be moved within a floor, the delivery includes an electric pallet truck that can move both WLTR and the pallets of bricks.
Additionally, WLTR fits through a standard opening for an 80 cm wide door in the carcassing phase (without floor construction). Thus, there is no risk of the masonry robot walling itself in a room. For moving between floors, a crane can be used to suspend the robot by handling points.
The masonry robot communicates with the operator via a tablet and needs one supporting worker to ensure the supply of new brick pallets and to take care of tasks such as cutting bricks and fitting wall anchoring clips when connecting walls.
