The handbook strategy of making use of coating to flooring to create a seamless end is a demanding and time-consuming enterprise. Simple Ground Robotics’ techniques automates the method utilizing cell robots.
Editor’s Notice: Robotics Enterprise Assessment‘s protection emphasizes innovation, together with start-up corporations (or ‘younger’ corporations). RBR “Begin-Up Profiles” spotlight particular person start-up corporations utilizing a constant, templated format that makes for fast, but knowledgeable studying, that additionally simplifies comparative evaluation.
If you’re fascinated with having your start-up profiled in Robotics Enterprise Assessment (RBR), please contact Dan Kara (dkara[AT]wtwhmedia.com). There isn’t any cost for submitting and posting Begin-Up Profiles on RBR.
Simple Ground Robotics – Firm Profile
Administration – Lior Ferdman (CEO and Founder), Gavriel Krauss (CTO and Founder)
Funding Standing – Simple Ground Robotics has raised 225K$ on the pre-seed spherical within the crowdfunding spherical. The subsequent spherical, the seed spherical, will start in January or February 2023.
Based on Simple Ground Robotics representatives, their EFR system creates excessive precision, seamless flooring in half the time in contrast with conventional flooring strategies, and cuts workforce necessities by 75%.
Simple Ground Robotics – Choices Profile
Major Goal Markets – 1) Manufacturing, 2) Logistics, and three) Building
Know-how / Product / Service(s) – Simple Ground Robotics automates the method of making use of coating to flooring (flooring casting) to supply a seamless, resistant consequence. Their EFR system, which integrates a number of robots for making use of flooring and a docking station, can use varied supplies which might be accessible in the marketplace (corresponding to epoxy).
Worth Proposition – Within the industrial markets, storage services, garages, gasoline stations, and underground parking heaps, there may be rising demand for sealed, seamless flooring. However the handbook strategy of making use of coating to flooring – mixing, loading the supplies into the mixer bucket, casting, portray, sanding, and creating texture – is a demanding and time consuming enterprise.
Based on Simple Ground Robotics representatives, their EFR system creates excessive precision, seamless flooring in half the time in contrast with conventional flooring strategies, and cuts workforce necessities by 75%. The system produces a high-level end with excessive accuracy and repeatability. The corporate estimates that the EFR system may save building corporations greater than $1,000 on every day labor prices.
Demand Drivers – Flooring is among the oldest building duties. Though in excessive demand, there has not been any vital technological breakthrough to scale back the time, complexity and prices of flooring work. Furthermore, in lots of nations, the development sector is challenged by a extreme scarcity of expert labor. The variety of employees within the building business is reducing, younger individuals don’t wish to work within the building business. In consequence, the common age of building employees in lots of industrialized nations is now over 50 years outdated.
Simple Ground Robotics’ main competitors is with with handbook labor… those that know how one can apply, stage out and coat seamless flooring.
Simple Ground Robotics – Enterprise Mannequin(s) and Competitors
Enterprise Mannequin – Simple Ground Robotics’ enterprise mannequin is B2B. When collaboration has been established with a chemical firm that has worldwide deployment, the robots might be offered. Upkeep and disposable spare elements might be accessible.
Aggressive Panorama – Based on Simple Ground Robotics representatives, the corporate has no direct opponents at this stage. Simple Ground Robotics’ main competitors is with with handbook labor… those that know how one can apply, stage out and coat seamless flooring. In the long run, Simple Ground Robotics might be competing with tile, PVC and linoleum installers.
