Austrian startup founded 2017 in Vienna building modular mobile construction robots for on-site 3D printing, drilling, milling, and welding tasks.
Baubot is an Austrian construction robotics company headquartered in Vienna, Austria, operating as Baubot GmbH. The company was incorporated on November 16, 2017 (registered capital EUR 35,000) and grew from the startup Printstones, which began developing mobile robotic systems for on-site 3D concrete printing. After completing more than 100 pilot projects, the company expanded its product concept into a multifunctional construction robot platform marketed under the Baubot brand.
The Baubot is a wheeled mobile robotic platform designed for use on active construction sites. It is built around modularity: the same base vehicle can be fitted with different tool heads and application packages to perform a wide range of tasks. Documented capabilities include on-site concrete 3D printing, material transportation and handling, robotic milling, drilling (including hollow-core drilling with onboard dust collection), screw driving, plasma cutting, welding, and painting.
Key technical specifications of the Baubot platform include a maximum travel speed of 3.2 km/h, a payload capacity of 500 kg, the ability to climb stairs, and the ability to pass through standard door openings. The robotic arm's positioning accuracy is stated at below 1 mm. The platform is electrically powered.
The Baubot drilling application package supports bit diameters up to 35 mm with integrated dust collection directly at the drilling head. The company has partnered with KUKA, using KUKA's KR IONTEC robot arm as the manipulator mounted on the Baubot base, enabling industrial-grade arm precision on a mobile platform.
As of 2024, the entity is also referred to as fischer BAUBOT following a partnership with the fischer Group, a European construction fastening and fixings company. The company employs approximately 22 people across operations on two continents. Baubot targets construction contractors, civil engineering firms, and general contractors seeking to automate repetitive or hazardous on-site tasks.
