SAEKI Robotics<\/a> has received $2.3 million from investors. The early financing round of the spin-off from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich(ETH<\/a>), founded in 2022, was led by the Zurich-based investment firm Wingman Ventures<\/a>. In addition, the two venture capital firms Vento<\/a> from Turin and GETTY<\/a> from New York as well as angel investors participated.<\/p>\n

According to a SAEKI announcement<\/a> on LinkedIn, the funding will “support our mission to build a network of decentralised automated factories that combine digital manufacturing and robotics to produce large parts at the speed of light”, such as wind turbine blades, components for concrete building parts or aircraft and car parts.<\/p>\n

According to a Techcrunch article<\/a> linked by SAEKI in the release, the three founders are focusing on building fully automated factories with independent robotic cells that can be booked by customers. “What we hear over and over again from people and companies is the desire for faster and more sustainable solutions for their parts,” co-founder Andrea Perissinotto is quoted as saying there. “The mere offer of savings from a multi-million dollar machine that requires a lot of space and additional resources, including hiring people who know new processes and materials, is not attractive to them.”<\/p>\n

The company also reportedly plans to collaborate with the composites industry for lightweight but strong parts in aircraft, cars and bicycles. SAEKI’s technology is expected to eliminate the time-consuming and expensive production of complex moulds from metal or composites, and thus a bottleneck for companies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
