Pantheon Innovative Builders, LLC, a Youngstown-based additive manufacturing construction company, delivered COBOD International’s BOD2 printer—the world’s most widely used 3D construction printer—to the Ohio State University’s Center for Design and Manufacturing Excellence (CDME) on January 6. The large-scale concrete construction printer is the first in Ohio and one of fewer than 10 at universities worldwide. CDME is collaborating with Pantheon to accelerate growth of the construction 3D printing industry. This research partnership will include testing, print demonstrations, experimental learning for students, and the creation of a workforce development training curriculum. Pantheon is working with CDME and COBOD to impact Ohio’s affordable housing portfolio as well as research other sustainable construction solutions. The partnership with CDME will also give Pantheon the opportunity to provide industry-leading research to building inspectors, trade unions and high schools across Ohio. Read More
