A thread drawing device includes a drive assembly which includes a drive wheel that has a working platform for supporting a thread, the thread has a fixed end fixed on an object and a movable end carried by a tool. The thread drawing device includes a pressing assembly which includes a pressing member configured to move between a first position at which the pressing member engages the working platform to clamp the thread to be pulled therebetween and a second position at which the pressing member disengages from the working platform to release the thread to be pulled. The thread drawing device includes a motor configured to rotate the drive wheel when the pressing member is at the first position so as to move a loose part of the thread at the fixed end from the fixed end to the movable end.

Embodiments of present disclosure relates to a robot and method for sewing an object. The robot includes a first robotic arm adapted to hold a needle, the needle carrying a length of a thread, a second robotic arm adapted to hold the needle, and a controller configured to move the first and second robotic arms to perform a plural of sewing operations so as to form a plural of stitches on the object A sewing operation includes moving the first robotic arm a first distance to cause the needle to penetrate a part of the object; and moving the second robotic arm to hold a penetration portion of the needle and pull the whole needle out of the object after the needle being released by the first robotic arm.
