BENDSCAPE results from a two-semester work by the students in Machining PRAXIS in Architecture I & II, at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna’s Institute of Architecture. In this study, the students began learning the processes of 3-axis machining and developed their expertise by experimenting with wood bending techniques based on subtraction. During this […]
official course description, modalities and sign-up -> Techniques and Tools for Digital Production 1 Wether interior space or urban square, designed space is the fundamental theme in architecture. The relationship between the inside and the outside is articulated through architecture and therefore the interdependent effect of the enclosed elements and the enclosing elements is one of […]

Use one of the following template Files to produce the necessary GCode to run our CNC HotWire Cutter! Each Definition comes with a 5.0 Rhinofile for setting up your geometry and a Grasshopper Definition to produce the GCode. In case one of them or both are not self-explinatory to you, stop by the experimenal lab and […]
In case you lose or break the original spool holder or need a different sized one..take the necessary file and print yourself one! The ORIGINAL should fit original Makerbot, Orbi-Tech, ColorFabb and the new formFutura and GermanRepRap Spools with hole diameters around 38mm. [download id=”628″] The second most common should fit older formFutura Spools, bq and the older GermanReprap and […]
To meassure in the correct height for cutting your material sheet you can use this Spacer. In case you cannot find the provided spacer or in case you loose it, just (please) print a new one on your Studio’s Makerbot Replicator with the “Standard” settings modified with “100% infill” and “Supports” activated. It only takes 10 minutes! […]
The Trotec Speedy 500 is a 120W CO2 CNC Laser Cutting machine for cutting plate materials. The machine can cut a variety of materials like Acrylics and Cardboard up to a thickness of 10mm. For cutting operations 2d vector Data from CAD and graphics Software can be used, reliefs so called “engravings” can be created […]

The DDPLab of the IoA is co-hosting one of this year’s urban strategies summer schools IMPRINTPROCESSES instructs to produce, calibrate, operate and hack their own 3D printers. Special attention is given to the individual printers´ behaviours. The summerschool relates experiments and their emergent physical manifestations with the material processes of the urban fabric, and has a […]
The DDPLab is equipped with one “PC-CUT Standard” machine from StepFour. Originally used for the model-airplane-industry with a cumbersome MSDOS-based cutting software we hacked it to be operated with MACH3. The gcode now can directly be produced out of Grasshopper an parametric scripting plugin for Rhinoceros 5.0 The CNC Hot-Wire-Cutter has a maximum cut volume […]
