Yingchuang has a share of responsibility for the future of China
Introduction: Today, Yingchuang president Ma Yihe releases a series of new achievements in Shanghai Expo Center Hall, including 3D printing steel structure house and 3D printing underground infrastructure. These green buildings not only appear in Shanghai, Suzhou, but also in the Uae Dubai, Italy and other foreign cities.
Yingchuang: China's green dream will be achieved by movable buildings

In Dubai, they printed 19 cool office buildings for the local government. The machine prints concrete member with a thickness of 8 cm, which is 12 centimeters less than the traditional process, and five times stronger than the traditional process. If traditional construction methods are used, these facilities usually require more than a dozen workers to complete for a month. With new technology, the facility can be printed within hours.
In 2008, Yingchuang Building Technique (Shanghai) Co.,Ltd undertook the Tianding project of the red hall of Shanghai world expo center. The inner bile perforation rate of double surface and large scale roof is 28%, the thickness is only 12 mm. If traditional technology is used, it is difficult to build, but Yingchuang has accomplished the task efficiently with 3D printing technology. Eight years later, Yingchuang president Ma Yihe releases a series of new achievements in Shanghai Expo Center Hall, including 3D printing steel structure house and 3D printing underground infrastructure. These green buildings not only appear in Shanghai, Suzhou, but also in the Uae Dubai, Italy and other foreign cities.
On March 27, A book named 3D printing architecture technology and case, which is the first book in the world that introduce 3D printing architecture systematically, appeared in Yingchuang 3D printing architecture global business application press conference. The book is the world's first 3D printed architecture technology application case, while the world's first habitable 3D printing building is in Shanghai, China. Most notably, the book reveals that 3D printing technology integrates green materials, green industry and green construction, which implement the concept of green development proposed by the state and is the leader of green construction industry.” said by Shi Dinghuan. He also wrote preface for this book. The book is published by Shanghai science and technology press, whose author is Ma Yihe, president of Yingchuang Building Technology ( Shanghai) Co.,Ltd.
Ma Yihe said that 3D printing architecture is architectural drawing procedure according to pre-design. The building is printed by automatic printer with special “ink”, which reaches to construction standard and has practical functions. The process of printing a building in 3D seems to be squeezing the cream, adding layers of building blocks that are several meters high. Assemble the multiple components together and transport them to the construction site to build the house; The 3D printing equipment can also be transported to the construction site to directly print out the interior and exterior decoration. Compared with the traditional process, 3D printing construction can overcome the artificial operation deviation of workers, the quality of the products, with the better protection and does not produce dust and construction waste, saving material and manpower and shortening the construction period.
“The 3D printing architecture is 100 % assembly building, which has economic benefits and social benefits, which is in line with the concept of green development in China.” Ma said.
In October 2013, the world first 3D architecture printer developed by Yingchuang was put into practice, which was used to print 10 projects in Zhangjiang Qingpu park. After the media report, the industry has attracted wide attention. At today's event, however, professor Ning Zhong, a professor of management at Fudan university, revealed that the Yingchuang was struggling in business at that time. President Ma told me that they provided 3D printing architecture materials to 2 companies. They buy at lower price but sell at high price. Eventually both companies all went to public but Yingchuang got little profit. To help the innovator, Ning Zhong led MBA students to set a new position for Yingchuang: Instead of being a traditional supplier of building materials, Yingchuang should be a supplier of 3D printing technology and solutions to build an innovative ecosystem.
More than two years have passed, and now the company is gaining momentum with its new business model. More than two years have passed, Yingchuang develop well via new business mode. In Dubai, they printed 19 cool office buildings for the local government. In order to make floor boards, the machine prints concrete member with a thickness of 8 cm, 12 cm less than the traditional process, which saves a lot of building materials and is five times stronger than the traditional process floor. Underground infrastructure such as buildings, sewage Wells and septic tanks can also be built with 3D printers. If traditional construction methods are used, these facilities usually require more than a dozen workers to complete for a month. With new technology, the facilities can be printed in a few hours, and the process quality is significantly higher than artificial construction. A few more workers were dispatched to the site and the work was done within five days.
A series of technologies and products of our company have basically matured and obtained 129 authorized patents. The next major task is to promote the application. Ma said. At the conference, Yingchuang announced to implement the plan of “global dreamworks” in Chongqing, Jiangsu Suqian, Zhejiang Lishui, Inner Mongolia Baotou and Hainan Haikou to produce various construction components.
