today the construction industry is facing unprecedented labor shortages in bridge construction tying deck rebar is a repetitive time-consuming and physically demanding job often projects are bid with no clear plan on where the labor will come from which can cause significant delays in the projects timeline and jeopardize the project's profitability what if there was a more innovative way to tie rebar that required fifty percent less workers Thai Baht advanced construction robotics first product is an autonomous rebar tying robot at ACR what we're trying to do is methodically look at the most difficult critical path challenges in the construction market our first product sort of highlights that one of our big challenges is finding people the tide deck rebar so we focused on developing a robot that will in fact tide deck rebar Thai Baht ties intersections continuously day or night without brakes complaints or injuries it's easy to integrate into current operations you can transfer the Thai Baht to the project to be a 40-foot trailer and a large truck it only takes a half a chef to assemble and beyond the bridge deck it fits bridges between 20 to 145 feet wide using the existing infrastructure already on a bridge project and once it's ready to tie it automatically identifies the intersections hi the intersections keep stealing that till the job is done it's really that simple if you want to get your job done quicker what you can do is put all your existing labor on to laying and placing the rebar and then the Thai Baht can come in and get it all tied before the next day that will really allow you to accelerate your schedule in Thai Baht represents a reliable flexible and scalable solution to meet labor needs after the rebar is carried in place on the deck the tying operations only require one Operator robot does the rest the mechanic e 12 is the first wheeled excavator in the world with a 100% electric power supply that doesn't compromise on any of these three challengers the key to autonomy and performance lies in the fundamental design of this machine the energy source separated from the turret allows a record capacity of 146 kilowatt power offering an unrivaled autonomy of eight hours the chosen battery technology combines a significantly superior lifetime to traditional batteries along with complete safety two electric motors provide simultaneous and independent control of both the excavating and driving function the all-electric transmission offers unmatched tractive effort at startup and provides energy recovery when braking the incredible power density of the electric mortals ensures extreme compactness and maintenance-free operation the perfect aliens of design and technology the McCulloch a12 paves the way for safer cleaner and more efficient urban construction sites here we go so our system is called Sam for semi-automated Mason and it's been developed by our company construction robotics the Sam system is working alongside Mason's helping them install brick it can handle a wide variety of bricks that are used out there in construction primarily for veneer commercial construction in most your institutions or schools it's really designed to help your commercial masonry contractors increase their productivity and and help reduce some of the heavy lifting from the Mason the Mason still works alongside Sam's they're still responsible for setting Sam up they're still responsible for striking the joints and ensuring the best wall quality and using some of the knowledge and the skills that they have but they don't have to have the physical demand on their body that they might previously that can help even some of the older Mason's work alongside Sam and not have to lift in place every brick and we're successful here and we can bring robotics and automation in the industry if we can help construction as a whole be more successful that's really going to ultimately help the US economy and even help jobs in the US we can help provide a very interesting dynamic aspect to the construction process where you're using robotics and construction at the same time and you can really help attract young talent into the industry NSF's been a instrumental part of our art work it's really been what enabled us to to go after and develop a high risk technology like this bringing robotics and automation into the construction industry is a challenge on multiple fronts one from both the technology side but also on the business and implementation side and I think the ability for NSF to to come in and support that has been really what enabled us to be able to pursue this technology and enter this industry the future of construction has arrived Caza is proud to present its vision the Caza x1 we built the x1 to be a smart robust and efficient solution to the unique construction challenges of the 21st century the x1 is the result of Silicon Valley imagination and real-world testing a combination of precision engineering beauty and functionality the x1 works in some of the toughest conditions yet it can use up to 55% less materials to build more resistance and unique structures the build process is up to 70% more efficient 40% less expensive and 100 percent more revolutionary with the patented zero gravity arm the use of heavy hand tools becomes almost effortless by rendering them weightless we decided to put the xo0g arm to the test to see if it could save time and money on the job site by getting the work done faster and protecting the worker from injury and strain we gave the workers two identical drilling and chipping tasks Duane will use traditional methods while ed will be assisted by the xo0g on we will be monitoring the heart rate time and progress as both workers complete the task the results are impressive the xo0g enabled worker finishes all the tasks while the other worker becomes too exhausted in the process with the assistance of the 0g arm the worker completes the task faster and with significantly less effort and fatigue so what if you could complete your heavy hand to a task faster with better accuracy and less injuries now you can with the XO Works aerial mount system you
