Nomination Products of the Year 2024 (www.polyformnext.de)

Gimatic: Area gripper FGS-120

Gimatic presents the new FGS-120 series area grippers, which flexibly handle various sizes, shapes and porosities and have been nominated in the competition for Product of the Year 2023 in Category 2: Robotics and Automation.

Injection molding turntable extended

The Molding Solutions division of the Barnes Group expanded the Foboha technology center for injection molding in Haslach in 2021. The technical center provides injection moulding expertise all year round and is available to customers for tests. It includes grippers and vacuum technology from Gimatic.

Know-how for medical technology 4.0

The variants of medical technology systems are increasing, batch sizes are becoming smaller, the cycles for new innovations are shortening and track and trace will also be introduced into the production of medical technology components. Gimatic, manufacturer of customized gripper solutions, is equipped for medical technology 4.0.

Rounded corners

In collaborative robotics, manually operated systems are also used in addition to fully automatic gripper changing systems. With the QC75, Gimatic has developed a collaborative manual changer that is tailored to the requirements of cobots.

Gimatic develops 4.0 hand change system

Gimatic has further developed its simple SQ manual changing system and made it suitable for Industry 4.0 robotics. The robot-side base plate is now available in a version with a secure locking mechanism that is sensor-supported.

Tool changer for concrete parts from 3D printing

With the mobile 3D printer from start-up Printstones, individual concrete parts can be created on site at the construction site. A tool changing system from Gimatic provides the necessary flexibility.

Holds what's coming

Until now, when handling components with different shapes, the EOAT solution had to be used to match the geometry. Gimatic has designed the suspensions and ball joints for suction cups so flexibly that components with different shapes can be moved with just one EOAT.

On your marks, get set, grab

Until now, there has often only been one specific type of gripper on the market for UR robots or a universal gripper, which is very large, heavy and cost-intensive. Gimatic has recognized this and has now launched its plug-and-play program as a starter kit for the E-Series from Universal Robots.

Complete control desired

Gimatic has started to equip its grippers with the IO-Link communication standard. The new developments include a servo gripper series.

New possibilities open

Mechatronic grippers with communication interface. Gimatic has started to equip its grippers with the IO-Link communication standard.

Gimatic sold to Barnes for 370 million euros

The US-based Barnes Group, a provider of products and solutions for industry and aviation, has acquired 100% of the Italian automation specialist Gimatic.

Barnes Group takes over Gimatic

The American Barnes Group, a provider of highly engineered products and solutions for industry and aviation, has announced the acquisition of Gimatic, an Italian supplier of components and system solutions for automation and handling.

New building for the new building

Growing faster than planned: At the German Gimatic branch in Hechingen, another new building is being constructed behind the new building from 2016, which is due to go into operation in 2019.

Good prospects for Gimatic

With a turnover of 48 million euros, Gimatic achieved growth of around 20 percent in 2017; the turnover forecast for 2018 is around 53 million euros. The manufacturer of EOAT solutions and mechatronic components is and remains on course for success.

Suitable all-rounder

Gimatic presents the electric two-jaw parallel gripper MPRJ, which is self-centering and can clamp the load from the outside and inside. The finger grippers can be moved to adjust the respective position.

Flange facilitates insertion work

Because a great deal of adjustment was previously required when inserting pins into small parts, Gimatic has expanded its AGG series of coupling grippers.

Plug-and-play to South Africa

Bowler Plastics in South Africa automated two Arburg injection molding machines and put an end to the monotonous manual closing of plastic caps for food or cosmetic bottles.

Base plate for the gripper assembly

Gimatic offers a standardized base plate made of laser-cut sheet metal for the fast and cost-effective assembly of robot gripper systems, especially for the plastic injection moulding industry.

Electric gripper accelerates wafer handling

They are easier to operate, maintenance-free and suitable for cleanrooms - these three advantages of mechatronic grippers over purely pneumatic ones were among the reasons why the developers of the wafer marking and sorting systems from Innolas decided to switch to such a solution.

Know where the cheeks are

A new gripper was announced at this year's Motek, which offers new automation options and applications with gripping force specification and detection of the jaw position.
