LAMÁQUINA’s 3D printed ceramic tiles complete Sagrada Família’s tallest tower Construction 3D Printing
On February 20, 2026, the final arm of the cross was lifted onto the Tower of Jesus Christ at the Sagrada Família in Barcelona, marking the completion of the cathedral’s exterior and the culmination of 144 years of construction. The cross now crowns the structure at 172.5 meters, making it the world’s tallest church. The robotic 3D printed ceramic tiles that form the tower’s white glazed ceramic skin were developed by LAMÁQUINA in collaboration with Ceramica Cumella.

AM for COVID-19 Forum: let the world know how AM can help locally AM Industry
The AM for COVID-19 Forum was launched to enable medical providers to communicate to AM providers what is needed at the front lines. As we’ve seen, the two most critical things needed at this point in time (besides medical staff), are emergency products like mass-produced protective masks and ventilators, which will be needed in mass numbers very soon. While AM is not a technology used for mass production, it has two significant advantages over traditional manufacturing: it can produce locally and can begin production immediately and these are, in any emergency, key advantages.
