The Challenge

The construction and mining industry face a double-edged challenge: As productivity flatlines and skilled labor become harder to find, there is a growing pressure to do more with less. At the same time sites such as quarries and construction zones are complex with constant changes in terrain, equipment and people. 

The solution

To solve these challenges Gravis offers autonomous and remote-controlled excavators and loaders. Their AI system learns and adapts in real-time to changing soil and site conditions, making operations consistent and faster. Their technology is plug-and-play and can be retrofitted to existing machines to perform tasks like excavation, loading, and feeding crushers with raw materials.

“Digital automation and robotics are technologies Holcim has employed for many years to enhance our operational efficiency, productivity and safety. Gravis is a leader in its field, and we see significant opportunities to apply their solutions in our markets. We look forward to bringing its technology to market at scale.”

Ryan Luke Johns

CEO and co-founder of Gravis Robotics

“The fastest path to autonomy is delivering productivity today. By giving operators real-time 3D intelligence and the ability to shift seamlessly between autonomy and augmented control, we cover more of the work, accelerate adoption, and create the data pipeline needed to learn new capabilities from the industry’s hardest jobs.”
