Sandwich Making Robots...

FincH · 15 Mar 2006 at 12:19

Whilst eating my Brian Turner BLT sandwich yesterday I was thinking, what actual input does Brian Turner have in to a Brian Turner BLT sandwich.

I mean, it's hardly the first BLT sandwich I've ever had and he obviously didn't invent the recipe, so perhaps he made them.

But then I thought, how could Brian Turner make so many sandwiches, in so many different flavours for so many people.

Then I though, how do companies like Sainsbury’s, Tesco etc make their sandwiches?!

I then came to the conclusion that by today’s standards they must be made by robots.

I did a quick Google search for Sandwich Making Robots and it gave me some results about a robot called Sandwich, but nothing on Sandwich Making Robots.

So, do robots make sandwiches, like they make cars? How are mass produced sandwiches made?

Cheers.

I always thought all the sandwiches were made by workers,

Then packaged by machines or something.

Like a conyeor belt

They make one huge sandwich the size of a football pitch then cut it in half to make 2 sandwiches .
Then they repeat the process with the 2 new sandwiches until they have thousands of small sandwiches that fit in the bags.

No, because when you cut 1 sandwich in half, it's still only 2 halves of a sandwich!

Next thing you know you'll be trying to tell me 0.9r doesn't equal 1!

drones in factories make them, I used to work with someone who had a night job working at walkers making sandwiches.

I always assumed people made the sandwhiches. Just machines package them. :confused:

the most automated bits will be:
buttering the bread
possibly cutting the completed sarnie
packaging it

Sandwiches are grown from sandwich seeds. Flavours are determined by the temperature the seeds are grown under, a bit like crocodiles.

Yes, if you know where to go. Strawberry are very hard to come by, chocolate and lime are quite common however.
