Abstract

The potential to expand the boundaries reached by the existing applications in computer-aided design and sustainable production with industrial robots has emerged in today's world. Especially, all of the robotic manufacturing models have turned into tools that can be used with the development of technology. Robotic 3D printing and additive manufacturing have become the key to the processes mentioned above. In this direction, the combined computer-aided design and robotic manufacturing methods reveal useful outputs in furniture design. However, the evaluation of the contribution of these outputs to sustainable production is important for the improvement of the process. This article aims to investigate the ecological and sustainable footprint process of an urban furniture sample produced by a robotic 3D printing method and its contribution to environmental protection. In this direction, The Print Your City project is chosen as the research material . The most important reason for choosing this project is that it sets an example for producing sustainable urban furniture with an online user experience using plastic waste. In the study, the contributions and constraints of the Print Your City project in terms of environmental protection and compliance with the sub-parameters of the ecological and sustainable footprint process are analyzed.

Sürdürülebilir Kent Mobilyası Üretiminde Robotik 3D Baskı: Şehrini Yazdır Projesi Örneği

Abstract

Günümüz dünyasında endüstriyel robotlar sayesinde bilgisayar destekli tasarım ve sürdürülebilir üretimde mevcut uygulamalar ile ulaşılan sınırları genişletme potansiyeli ortaya çıkmıştır. Özellikle, gelişen teknoloji ile robotik üretim modellerinin hepsi bu doğrultuda kullanılabilecek nitelikte araçlara dönüşmüştür. Robotik 3D baskı ve eklemeli üretim bahsi edilen süreçlerin anahtarı haline gelmiştir. Bu sayede, bilgisayar destekli tasarım ve robotik üretimin birleşik yöntemleri mobilya ölçeğinde de faydalı çıktılar ortaya koymaktadır. Ancak, söz konusu çıktıların sürdürülebilir üretime olan katkılarının değerlendirilmesi sürecin iyileştirilmesi için önem taşımaktadır . Bu makale, robotik 3D baskı yöntemi ile üretilmiş kent mobilyası çıktısının ekolojik ve sürdürülebilir ayak izi süreci temelinde çevre korunumuna katkılarını araştırmayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu doğrultuda, araştırma materyali olarak Şehrini Yazdır projesi seçilmiştir. Bu projenin seçilmesinin en önemli sebebi, sürdürülebilir kent mobilyası üretiminin plastik atıklar kullanılarak çevrimiçi kullanıcı deneyimi ile üretime geçirilmesi yönüyle örnek teşkil etmesidir. Çalışma içerisinde Şehrini Yazdır projesinin çevrenin korunması ile ekolojik ve sürdürülebilir ayak izi sürecinin alt parametrelerine uygunluğu açısından katkıları ve kısıtları analiz edilmektedir.
