The wonders of technology continue to amaze! A 3D-printed temple, touted as the world's first, has come up in Burugupally in Siddipet district, Telangana. Built by Hyderabad-based Apsuja Infratech in collaboration with additive manufacturing solutions provider Simpliforge Creations, the unique structure took about three months to 3D print.

The three-part structure, which spans 4,000 sq ft and is 35.5 feet tall, has three sanctums: A modak dedicated to Lord Ganesha, a square Shivalay devoted to Lord Shankar and a lotus-shaped one for Goddess Parvati. The three gopurams (spires) and three sanctums were 3-D printed onsite by Simpliforge at its robotics construction 3D-printing facility with the help of an in-house developed system and indigenously developed material and software. The remaining structures like the pillars, slabs and flooring were built using conventional construction techniques.
