About
Dr. Zhongxing Duan is a pioneering researcher in construction robotics and automated prefabrication, with a focus on precision surface processing for precast concrete components. His most-cited work, "A Robotic Solution for Precision Smoothing and Roughening of Precast Concrete Surfaces" (2024, 4 citations), introduces a novel robotic system that simultaneously performs smoothing and roughening operations—traditionally separate, labor-intensive tasks. This innovation directly addresses inefficiencies in factory-based prefabrication, where component modules are produced off-site and assembled on-site. By integrating dual-function end-effectors and adaptive control algorithms, Duan’s solution reduces manual labor, improves surface quality consistency, and accelerates production cycles. His contributions are particularly impactful for the construction industry value chain, enabling higher automation levels in precast manufacturing. Though early in his career, Duan’s work has already attracted attention from researchers in construction automation and robotics, with his paper serving as a reference for subsequent studies on robotic surface finishing. His research bridges the gap between mechanical design and practical construction needs, offering scalable solutions for modernizing building component production.
