About Us

The Civil Engineering Department of Pimpri Chinchwad College of Engineering (PCCoE) has established the Centre of Excellence for Advanced 3D Concrete Printing in collaboration with La Fondation Dassault Systèmes and Cretebots Digital Constructions Pvt. Ltd., Pune. This pioneering initiative aims to drive innovation in automated construction, sustainable infrastructure, and digital fabrication technologies.

State-of-the-Art Infrastructure

The laboratory is equipped with cutting-edge 3D concrete printing technology, including:

• 5 x 5 x 5 m Gantry System for large-scale 3D printing applications.
• Advanced 3D Printing Pump, Mixer, and Nozzle System for precise material deposition.
• High-End Software Ecosystem for seamless design-to-production workflow.

Our Vision
