World-first 3-D printed temple is ready in  Siddipet

November 22, 2023: Apsuja Infratech in collaboration with Simpliforge Creations  has announced the inauguration of the world’s first 3D Printed Hindu Temple at Charvitha Meadows. Nestled in the heart of Burugupally, Vayupuri, Siddipet, this iconic temple is a testament to pioneering innovation and cultural heritage.
Hari Krishna Jeedipalli, Managing Director, Apsuja Infratech and  Amit Ghule, Chief Operating Officer &  Waseem Chaudhary, Chief Technology Officer – Simpliforge Creations today inaugurated the temple.
Standing at 35.5 ft tall and spanning across 4,000 square feet, it is  testament to human ingenuity and devotion.
It is scheduled for public to visit from 24th November 2023, following the completion of the Prathistapana,
Amit Ghule, said “This is a first-of-its-kind 3D Temple not just in India but in the world. This construction takes care of the structural requirements, principles of temple design, 3D printing requirements, while dealing with the challenges of in-site construction. This proof of concept also sets the stage for future applications of Simpliforge's robust systems in inaccessible areas like frontiers, high altitude areas, desserts and snowy regions with applications in challenging terrain, disaster hit areas and defence applications.”
The temple was meticulously built using Simpliforge’s patented 3D Printable Construction material, Simplicrete. The sanctums and dome Spires, including the Modaka, Shivalay, and Lotus Garbhagudis, were crafted entirely through on-site 3D printing, a process that took across 70 days of continuous printing. The temple’s Mandapam slab was constructed using traditional methods, emphasizing the fusion of conventional techniques with futuristic innovation.
The temple being built 100% on location, signifying the accelerated pace and structural robustness achievable through 3D printing technology.
