The Dusty for Revit plugin, made by Dusty Robotics, streamlines the process of preparing layout files to be printed on jobsites with the Dusty FieldPrinter robot platform. With this plugin, VDC and design teams can select native Revit categories and map them to new or existing Dusty layers. They can then export robot-ready layout files directly from their Revit models, to be printed at full scale onto job site floors with Dusty's robotic layout solution, preserving the full fidelity of your BIM data. The plugin requires a Dusty Portal account to upload and manage exported files.

Dusty Robotics is the best solution to ensure design integrity in the field through automated layout and a streamlined BIM-to-field process. Dusty delivers a combination of hardware, software, and services that fit seamlessly into existing construction work processes by printing digital models directly on the jobsite floor with 1/16" accuracy based directly on Autodesk® Revit® or AutoCAD® models.

Dusty has enabled contractors to print more than 250 million square feet of layout across thousands of buildings and is trusted by leading general contractors such as Mortenson, McCarthy, and Skanska as well as trade contractors in framing, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing.
