German Federal Minister for Housing, Urban Development and Building visits KUKA to talk about automated house construction

A shortage of living space, rising prices and a lack of skilled workers are among the major challenges facing society. Automated modular house con-struction offers a solution here. During a visit to KUKA, Klara Geywitz, the German Federal Minister for Building, was informed about the innovative new concept.

9. októbra 2024


Automated house building largely relocates the construction site to the factory – entire housing elements are produced on the assembly line with the help of robotics in a highly automated and digitized manner, and only need to be put together on the construction site.

At KUKA, we are applying the automation and systems expertise we have built up over decades to the construction industry. And this innovative concept offers enormous potential.

Timo Heil, CEO KUKA Systems EMEA

Automated modular house construction significantly reduces construction time and costs, helps to compensate for the shortage of skilled workers, conserves resources and opens new perspectives for greater sustainability.


With the use of robotics, living spaces can be built faster, more sustainably and more cost-effectively. In view of the shortage of skilled workers and the high demand for living space, we need more digitalization in the construction industry. KUKA is showing how modern automation technologies can advance modular house construction and thus make construction fit for the future.

Federal Minister Klara Geywitz

Unique house-building factory

This new, innovative construction concept is already being implemented. KUKA is building a turnkey, flexible system with 50 robots in the world's first unique smart factory, owned by GROPYUS in Richen, Baden-Württemberg. From 2025, multi-storey, sustainable timber-hybrid apartment buildings will be digitally planned there, produced on an industrial scale with a high degree of automation and then assembled on the construction sites with a degree of automation. Every year, GROPYUS will create more than 3,500 apartments using KUKA technologies.
