The expertise in gripping and tooling.

AMG Automations, based in Vernouillet, France, designs, manufactures, assembles and commissions modular gripping systems (EOAT) for automotive press lines: square- and round-profile grippers, blank destackers, transfer beams, coupling equipment and industrial vacuum cups.

Square-profile grippers (40×40 or 50×50 central arm, 30×30 or 40×40 antennas) are the basis of press-line tooling; round-profile grippers (Ø25, Ø40 and Ø60 tubes) are used for lighter tooling. All are built from standard catalogue components — ball-joint supports, brackets, angled wedges, vacuum cups — which makes adjustment and spare parts simpler.

On a press line these terms describe the same equipment: the tooling mounted at the end of the robot arm or on the press transfer system (EOAT, End-of-Arm Tooling) that picks and moves the sheet-metal parts. Parts are usually held by vacuum cups; for materials that cannot be picked by suction, AMG also offers needle grippers.

Yes. Coupling sleeves and adapters let you mount AMG grippers on existing equipment, and components can be adapted to the customer's specific mounting. Manual or automatic coupling interfaces connect the grippers to the robot or the press.
