Fully Automated Concrete Precast System- An Intelligent Manufacturing System For

1. Fully Automated Concrete Precast System- An Intelligent Manufacturing System For The Next Generation Automated Precast System (APS) is changing the landscape of wet cast production by making the process more efficient, consistent, safer while employing reduced labor. Using an assembly line principle, we bring the molds to you at fixed stations, whereby certain tasks can be carried out. APS helps to deliver precision manufactured products with high-quality finishing, decreased lead times and removes human error while being cost-effective. When dealing with precast concrete, complex designs and difficult structures demand ever greater accuracy. The industry will be able to achieve this demand with a fully automated concrete precast system that helps to maximize safety. According to Grand View Research, “The global precast concrete market size was valued at USD 92.14 billion in 2020 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.3% from 2021 to 2028”. GCI Pipe Products Inc., a company specializing in production technology is serving the concrete pipe and precast industries and is now presenting an automated production system to prominent players in the global market. APS from GCI is designed for the production of Manhole risers, Manhole bases, cover slabs, Eccentric and concentric manhole cones, catch basins, grade rings, Precast barriers, Round and non-round pipe, Wet cast box culverts, and any wet cast form that fulfills the technical constraints of plant supporting equipment. Impact of COVID-19 on Precast Concrete Production Industries The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on all types of businesses across the globe and precast concrete construction is facing unconventional challenges as it is labor intensive and involves a great quality of work. The use of automation in this precast concrete construction is extensive covering all the stages of production. Hence, this challenging situation has increased the use of automated machinery in the Precast Concrete Industries. Advantages of an Automated Concrete Precast System Manufacturing precast concrete products using automated machinery has many advantages and a few are listed below: ● ● ● ● ● Improved quality assurance Low production costs Reduced environmental impact Low maintenance Aesthetically versatile 4125, Bonner Industrial Drive Shawnee, Kansas 66226, USA www.gcigroups.com
