For its latest innovation to streamline the production of denim, Jeanologia turned to industries where humans and robots produce in the same work space for inspiration.
Taking a page out of the automotive sector’s playbook, the technology company presented Handman, a finishing system that is equipped with two robots and eight lasers. The systems require two people to load jeans onto hangers, or “collaborate” with the robots, ultimately leading to 10,000 finished jeans in 24 hours with zero waste.
Jeanologia CEO Enrique Silla described Handman as the “future of our industry,” adding that only with automation is it possible to have clean and scalable manufacturing with reduced costs, greater agility and a better production look. The technology is already a reality and is being used in three manufacturing facilities in the U.S. and Tunisia, producing 5 million jeans a year.
