AI-Powered Robotics for Smart Carpet Manufacturing

description

ROBOTEX is an AI-powered robotic tufting solution designed to transform carpet manufacturing through smart automation, CNC robotics, and intelligent software. The system combines a heavy-duty 4-axis CNC tufting machine with a proprietary “Art-to-Path” AI platform that converts digital carpet designs into optimized robotic motion paths. ROBOTEX addresses major challenges in the carpet industry, including labor shortages, high production costs, excessive material waste, slow manual production, and inconsistent quality. Compared with traditional manual tufting, the system reduces material waste from approximately 20% to nearly 1% and reduces production time from around 8 hours to only 30 minutes per square meter. The technology also enables automatic 5-color yarn selection, real-time thread-break detection, and native 3D pile-height control, eliminating the need for manual post-production carving. ROBOTEX targets large carpet factories shifting toward customized, high-margin products and medium-sized workshops seeking to scale production while reducing dependence on skilled manual labor. With an affordable local solution, technical support, and scalable AI-powered technology, ROBOTEX aims to accelerate the digital transformation of carpet manufacturing and strengthen the competitiveness of the textile industry.
