Steelo is developing 3D-printed connectors with Cranfield University
A London-based steel fabricator is working alongside a university to develop 3D-printed steel connections.
Steelo started a project with Cranfield University in April this year to determine the possibility of printing structural steel beams.
“At first, we wanted to 3D print the whole steel beam. However, we quickly discovered that our focus should be on 3D printing steel beam connections, using pre-cut beams,” explained Steelo project leader Lina Alexaki.
