Fabrica supports the automation of tile grouting where the robot can grout tile gaps and clean off excess grout including the edges autonomously in any given space with the goal of boosting productivity. Human intervention is only needed to reload the grout and water.

The project would revolve around real-world industry deployments taking our tile grouting robot from a TRL of 7 to 9. In addition to a tile grouting robot, the team would also be working on other construction robots in alignment with the company’s long-term vision. From August to December 2023, the team will be working on building a reproducible and reliable tile grouting robot for mass manufacturing. Fabrica’s robots are currently in the pilot production phase. The redesign should not just improve the reliability but also the ease of manufacturing and assembly, and subsequent replacements of parts. As the grouting robot transitions into a more mature product, there is a need to think about user-friendliness. Figuring out which part of the grouting robot requires the most human intervention and simplifying it would be key to boosting the productivity of the robots.

Talent would also be involved in the initial mechanical design and assembly for our new robots, and potentially integrating tech stacks on existing robots that the team chooses to collaborate with.
