This video takes the cable robot concept further, adding a full simulation to show the complete proposed application. From picking stock out of mixed bunk lengths to placing it on a simulated linear saw infeed, this demo highlights how the system can remove manual handling and improve efficiency in real-world truss plants.

Concept simulations like this help visualize the future of automation in component manufacturing.

This side-profile view captures the cable robot performing three different movements in one seamless sequence:

From this angle, you can clearly see the precision, control, and smooth transitions between each motion. The demonstration highlights how automation can handle different truss sizes and placement patterns without interruption, proving its adaptability on the plant floor.

Whether it’s efficiency, safety, or flexibility. this system shows how robotic truss handling can change the way we move material in construction manufacturing.

The mobile rebar tying system is a cutting-edge, containerized solution designed to streamline the construction of rebar cages directly on-site. Upon delivery in a standard container, this robust system is delivered onsite for operation, providing a self-contained, automated assembly line for tying rebar members with precision. It utilizes advanced robotic arms and sensors to accurately tie rebar intersections, eliminating manual tying, which significantly reduces worker strain and the risk of injury. With its efficient workflow and high-speed processing, this mobile system enhances construction site safety and productivity, allowing for faster cage assembly and enabling workers to focus on higher-value tasks. The result is a seamlessly integrated, safer, and more efficient process for rebar cage fabrication that reduces downtime and improves overall site safety.

The single robotic panel system is a fast and versatile solution designed for efficient panel production in either wood or cold-formed steel (CFS) construction. Engineered for speed, it can be set up to handle one material type at a time, allowing it to efficiently complete batches of panels in either wood or CFS. Once a batch of one material is completed, the system can quickly switch over to the other material type, making it ideal for manufacturers who need flexibility in production without sacrificing pace.

This streamlined system assembles panel frameworks with precision, using advanced automation to place studs and fasteners accurately. After each panel is framed, window and door openings are added manually, enabling easy customization as needed. Built to optimize throughput, this system is perfect for high-speed, batch-oriented production while delivering reliable quality across both wood and steel construction projects.

The roof member preplate system is a highly efficient, containerized solution for precision nail plate placement in truss manufacturing. Housed within a 40-foot container, this automated system is designed for quick setup in a manufacturing facility. Equipped with robotic arms that pick nail plates from organized bins, the system accurately places and attaches each plate on roof members according to exact specifications. This precision in placement allows for smaller, appropriately sized nail plates to be used, reducing overall steel usage and lowering material costs without compromising structural integrity.

Once the members are preplated, they are batched together according to each truss before being delivered to the assembly tables. This ensures that all necessary components for a specific truss arrive together, streamlining the assembly process and reducing handling time for operators. By organizing components in advance, the system enhances production flow and efficiency, setting a new standard in component fabrication for truss manufacturing.

In this demonstration video, a real robot is equipped with a specialized rebar tying gun to precisely secure rebar joints, showcasing the feasibility of automating this traditionally manual task. The robot, programmed for accurate, consistent movement, positions the tying gun at each rebar intersection and performs a secure tie with precision, ensuring optimal stability and alignment of the rebar structure. This demonstration highlights the potential for automated rebar tying to improve safety, speed, and consistency on construction sites, proving that robots can reliably handle rebar assembly with minimal human intervention. This prototype setup serves as a foundational step towards integrating robotic solutions for rebar tying, illustrating how automation can streamline labor-intensive processes in construction.
