CFX Masks showcases a time-lapse of their robotic sculpting workflow using Wesbot, a Kuka 6-axis robotic arm programmed by Robotic Solutions, to rough-sculpt a new mask design called Texas Slim. The piece is created in Monster Clay as part of the pipeline toward a finished silicone mask, with human artists still refining every machine-cut piece. The video teases the Texas Slim design created for the Texas Haunters Convention and invites audience feedback on preferred content formats — full live streams versus weekly time-lapse uploads.

WESBOT LIVE May 8, 2024 - Join the livestream on cutting a NEW MASK TEXAS SLIM!

CFX Masks documents a full-day livestream of their robotic sculpting system, Wesbot, cutting a brand-new mask design called Texas Slim from Monster Clay. The process showcases how a digital sculpt file is translated into a path program for a Kuka 6-axis robotic arm, which performs the bulk of the physical sculpting work. Human artists then step in to add finishing details and refinements the robot cannot achieve on its own. The end goal is a fully wearable silicone mask brought to market through this hybrid digital-robotic workflow.

WESBOT LIVE May 8, 2024 cutting a NEW MASK: Texas Slim - Part 2!

CFX Masks broadcasts a full-day livestream following the robotic sculpting of a new wearable silicone mask called Texas Slim, using their proprietary Kuka 6-axis robotic arm known as Wesbot. The workflow begins with a digital sculpt that is translated into a robot path program, allowing Wesbot to carve the majority of the form from Monster Clay. Human artists then step in to add finishing details and refinements the robot cannot yet achieve, resulting in a fully handcrafted-quality piece ready for silicone production.

WESBOT LIVE! Dec 12, Part 2!

CFX Masks broadcasts an all-day livestream showing their robotic sculpting system — nicknamed Wesbot — carving a brand-new mask design out of Monster Clay using a Kuka 6-axis robotic arm programmed by Robotic Solutions. The workflow begins with a digital sculpt file that is translated into the robot's motion path, allowing the machine to handle the bulk of the rough sculpting work. Human artists then step in to refine details and complete elements the robot cannot fully achieve on its own, ultimately producing a master sculpt destined to become a finished wearable silicone mask.
