1. A system comprising:
a sub-component extrusion station for assembling and extruding a sub-component, the sub-component extrusion station comprising:
a sub-component assembly surface; and
a first robotic arm configured to position members of the sub-component on the sub-component assembly surface, wherein the sub-component comprises:
a first member and a second member that are parallel; and
a plurality of cripple studs, wherein a first end of each cripple stud of the plurality of cripple studs is coupled to the first member and a second end of each cripple stud of the plurality of cripple studs is coupled to the second member to assemble the sub-component, wherein the sub-component extrusion station is configured to extrude the sub-component after assembly to an outfeed table;
a sub-element assembly station comprising:
a sub-element assembly surface configured to receive the sub-component from the outfeed table; and
a second robotic arm configured to assemble a sub-element using the sub-component; and a main element extruder comprising:
a main element extrusion surface to receive the sub-element from the sub-element assembly station; and
a third robotic arm configured to assemble a main element using the sub-element, wherein the main element is a frame structure of a building component.
