The textile (r)evolution: KUKA small robotics automates the textile industry

There is a trend to move production closer to sales markets again. This saves time and costs and is good for the environment. For the European textile industry, the partial return from low-cost production facilities in Asia is primarily a question of technology.
With KUKA robotics, the automation experts at robotextile have now created an efficient and surprisingly easy-to-handle system solution that could lead textile production into a new era: “Thanks to the extremely agile and highly flexible KUKA small robots from the AGILUS, SCARA-robots and LBR iisy series as well as specially designed grippers, we have managed to take layers of fabric from the stack of pre-cuts and feed them individually to the next production step without picking up the next layer of fabric as well - nothing on the market was previously capable of doing this.”

Well done KUKA, keep up the spirit of innovation!

Not Kuka is the inovator in this Clip....

sehr schön

Now Kuka should make their products affordable. Prices are not fair. A 700mm arm with about the same features costs about $5000 in Shenzhen and €25.000 to €30.000 in Europe for Kuka. Typical get rich quick business.

Buy it from Shenzhen, then use it to build your own robot arms, and eventually a robot army. 😆 🤖 🤖 🤖

kuka robotic from Jerman has succeeded in producing robots capable of making textiles.
but the price of this robot is still more expensive than the workforce in Bangladesh.
Bangladesh's textile industry employs 45% of the workforce. and generates 80% of exports for the country. when the price of robots is cheaper than these workers. we will first see a country go out of business.(bankrupt)

according to ARK Invest, cost of robotics will drop by about 50-60% within 2025 in comparison to 2022. Global pandemic has accelerated the adoption of robotics worldwide leading to dramatic gains in economy of scale.

also da weiß ich jetzt wo ich meine nächste Jeans kaufe!

Pls make some invention for weaving

[@JigilJigil]

Buy back KUKA from Chinese, make KUKA a german company again.

Fertigung der Firma C&A ist schlecht organisiert: anstatt der “lean” Prozesse kann man traditionelle «batch-and-queue» Herangehensweise beobachten. Und Roboter in diesem Fall operieren zu langsam und schaffen zusätzliche Probleme.
