We open up new possibilities for automation technology
Founded in 2019 with an ambitious goal, sewts is pushing the boundaries of robotics in the processing of easily deformable materials.
About us
We’re an ambitious and smart team with a shared mission
At sewts, we're reshaping textile automation with sustainability and advanced robotics.
With a focus on sustainability, sewts aims to reduce overproduction in the textile industry enabling localized manufacturing driven by automation and intelligence.
By providing robots with human-like perception skills, automation enters a new century. We combine, AI, Computer Vision and Robotics.
What is intuitive for a human is nearly impossible for a robot. Our Physical AI enables robots to excel at the complex tasks of handling deformable materials.

Meet the team & founders
At sewts, we're not just engineers; we're trailblazers in robotics for textiles since 2019, transforming innovative ideas into revolutionary automation technologies. Join us in crafting the fabric of the future.
has come across the fundamental problem of processing (technical) textiles through his holistic studies with a focus on fibre composites. Due to three scientific works at the Chair for Carbon Composites (LCC) at the Technical University of Munich he has an enormous understanding of the behaviour and material properties of easily deformable materials. Alex is responsible for corporate strategy, business development and HR.
has deepened his knowledge in the areas of product development and quality management during his studies. He has built up a broad understanding from prototype construction to large-scale production. During the last years, Tim enhanced his knowledge especially in the field of new grippers which is an essential part for the automated textile handling.
has both a great technical understanding and fundamental market and technical knowledge. Till has a great passion for information technology. He acquired his know-how in the field of artificial intelligence during his master studies focusing on its technical expertise making it the ideal interface between software and hardware.

Sustainability
Automation is one of many puzzle pieces to combat climate change – we’re ready to do our part.
sewts leverages automation and AI to address climate change, automating processes for a positive environmental impact. Our technology reduces industrial carbon footprints, especially in the garment industry, by enabling local production and reducing overproduction through smart, AI-driven solutions.
Eco-Efficient Robotic Installations
Growing industrial robot installations reflect a shift towards sustainable manufacturing. sewts is at the forefront, using robotics to cut emissions and improve efficiency in sectors like textiles and food processing. Our efforts align with global sustainability goals, demonstrating automation's role in eco-friendly manufacturing advancements.
Our goal is to use automation to reduce carbon emissions.
The garment industry alone emitted 1.025 Gigatonnes of CO2 in 2019, and emissions are expected to rise. Reintroducing local production and on-demand manufacturing and handling through automation can reduce emissions. Automation is cheaper than manual labor and can be made smarter with sewts. This approach applies to various industries, reducing reliance on cheap labor and environmental costs of global shipping.
