Allonic's play is to speed up how robot bodies are manufactured.

It says the physical construction of robots is outdated, involving putting together robotic hands, arms and manipulators piece by piece, relying on bearings, screws, cables, and delicate joints that are costly to manufacture and tedious to assemble.

Allonic, which is a 15-strong team, is looking to disrupt the industry, taking on the challenge at the manufacturing layer.

Its proprietary production process, known as 3D Tissue Braiding, replaces manual assembly with a fully automated, scalable manufacturing system, it says.

Inspired by how ropes achieve strength through structure rather than rigid parts, Allonic 3D-weaves tailored robotic “tissues” directly over a skeletal core.
