Intelligent robot shoes 20 times faster than manual, 2 hours will be able to create 150 pairs of shoes
Intelligent robot shoes 20 times faster than manual, 2 hours will be able to create 150 pairs of shoes
Recently, according to foreign media reports, Grabit research and development of shoe assembly machine has been used in Nike shoe factory, these assembly machine work speed is 20 times the workers.
Before the Grabit shoe assembly robot came out, the most artificial program for making a pair of Nike shoes was vamp assembly. In everyday life, the uppers of many sports shoes look like only a single piece of material, without pins or thread. In practice, however, these uppers may be made up of up to 40 pieces of material. The material is heated and bonded to a whole.
Before this part of the work was done by manpower, it was time-consuming. With the introduction of Grabit vamp assembly robot, the situation has changed. Grabit's robot looks like an oversized sandwich machine. It works by determining how the top material is stacked. Then, in the camera monitoring, with electrostatic adsorption plate platform down item, displacement into a semi-finished shoes above and the withdrawal of the electric field, make the material into the correct position, and the whole into the hot press.
In general, it takes 10 to 20 minutes for the worker to finish the upper material, while the Grabit robot only takes 50 to 75 minutes to complete the same job. During a 8 hour shift, a robot monitored by a worker can make 300 or 600 pairs of shoes.
Grabit company is headquartered in California, the ideas from the research institute is located in California Menlo Park well-known non-profit SRI. Harsha Prarad, founder and chief technology and product officer of Grabit, Inc. (Harsha
Prahlad) previously in the study of SRI climbing robot, he later found that the real opportunity in manufacturing and logistics industry. So in 2013, he made Grabit independent from SRI and became a new company. At present, Grabit has received a $2 million 500 thousand financing, investors including Flex, the manufacturers of electronic products clothing maker Esquel and South Korea's Samsung Corp.
In the past month, Grabit has supplied a small number of shoe assembly machines to Nike shoe factories. It is understood that by the end of this year, there will be more than 10 such machines in China and Mexico factories put into operation.
The robot is also one of Nike's plans to get manufacturers closer to the European and American markets. According to the data provided by Nike, in 591 factories all over the world, a total of about 1000000 workers gathered in the main production of Nike shoes, cheap Asian labour market. The company wants to make operations closer to Europe and the United States a large consumer market often present in the United States has 49 companies in the production of Nike products factory. On average, each factory employs about 130 people, while China's Nike products manufacturing plant employs an average of about 1300 people.

But it's not just the Nike family that's approaching automated production. Adidas and Nike and other major competitors dema also promote their advanced manufacturing project. Grabit's CEO Greg Miller (Greg
