Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods for automatically producing a cord structure are provided herein. In one embodiment, a method comprises automatically forming (820), with at least one robotic arm (305), a first plurality of loops (1030) in a first plane (1020), and automatically forming (840), with the at least one robotic arm (305), a second plurality of loops (1130) in a second plane (1120) orthogonal to the first plane (1020), the second plurality of loops (1130) slippably engaged with the first plurality of loops (1030). In this way, cord structures may be quickly constructed, thereby reducing labor input and expense.
