About Oberhauser's Ballon Nal Bannaanka

Ballon-ka Oberhauser waa nal bannaanka loo isticmaalo oo lagu soo saaro saddex cabbir, oo dhexroorkoodu yahay 30 sm, 70 sm iyo 100 sm. Nalka waxaa laga sameeyay shamiito iyadoo la adeegsanayo daabacaadda 3D ee shamiitada sariirta budada ah, oo ah hab sidoo kale loo yaqaan Selective Paste Intrusion. Habkan, cajiinka shamiitada ayaa lagu duraa sariir budo ah, qaabkana waxaa la dhisaa lakab lakab. Ma jiro qaab-dhis (formwork) loo baahan yahay, sidaas darteed waxaa la soo saari karaa qaabab adag oo faahfaahsan. Alaabtu aad bay u adkeysataa cimilada, sidaas awgeedna waxay ku habboon tahay isticmaalka bannaanka. Isticmaalka hufan ee alaabtu wuxuu yareeyaa qashinka inta lagu jiro wax-soo-saarka.

Production Technology
The material used is characterized by its high weather resistance, making the Oberhauserer's Balloon ideal for outdoor use. By employing smart manufacturing technologies, resource-efficient and sustainable production is ensured. 3D concrete printing allows for efficient material usage and waste minimization, leading to a reduced ecological footprint.
Inspiration
The production of the Oberhauserer's Balloon utilizes the powder bed concrete 3D printing process, also known as Selective Paste Intrusion (SPI). In this method, a cement paste is selectively injected into a powder bed, creating complex and detailed structures layer by layer. This technique eliminates the need for traditional formwork, facilitating the creation of intricate geometries and significantly expanding design freedom.
