DESCRIPTION
Flippy is a second-generation AI-powered frying and grill robot created by Miso Robotics, representing the company’s vision for intelligent automation in quick-service restaurant (QSR) kitchens. First introduced in 2018, Flippy has evolved through multiple iterations, with Flippy 2 focusing on modularity, safer operation, higher throughput, and simplified integration into existing fry stations. Unlike single-purpose industrial robots, Flippy is designed to operate in human-centric commercial kitchens, performing repetitive high-heat tasks such as frying and grilling that traditionally require human labor. Its development reflects a broader industry shift toward back-of-house robotics that prioritize consistency, food safety, and labor augmentation over rigid factory-style automation.
FEATURES
