en.Wedoany.com Reported - Australian construction robotics company Luyten has opened early reservations for its Ascend A27 system, which converts existing tower cranes into robotic concrete 3D printers.
The company stated that the reservation window is open until October 25, allowing developers, contractors, government agencies, and infrastructure suppliers priority access to its initial production quota.
Luyten said the Ascend A27 transforms existing tower crane infrastructure into a computer-controlled concrete printing system, utilizing robotics and sensors to monitor construction site conditions and adjust printing during the process.
The company reported that the underlying control system and printing method were developed and tested on the Platypus X12 platform before being applied to the tower crane design. Luyten's Platypus printers remain focused on smaller residential and low-rise projects, while the Ascend A27 targets larger vertical buildings.
The company cited Australia's first fully 3D-printed multi-story house and deployments across five continents as validation for the new platform.
Luyten founder and global president Ahmed Mahil stated that the ASCEND A27 represents a new era of intelligent construction, enabling clients to build at greater speed, smarter methods, and larger scale.
Mahil noted that early reservation customers will form the first commercial deployment group for the platform and will collaborate with Luyten on delivery, commissioning, training, and implementation. He pointed out that the construction industry is entering the next industrial revolution, and the ASCEND A27 was developed to help clients lead this transformation, combining robotics, artificial intelligence, and advanced manufacturing into a practical platform for large-scale vertical construction. Opening early reservations marks the beginning of the company's commercial rollout, with Luyten partnering with industry leaders shaping the future of automated construction.
