The structure of your material handling project can starts with specifying what equipment is needed. Cranes, hoists, tooling, controls, tube lifters, and fall protection are some of the main pieces of equipment you may require. JRG will work with your team to evaluate exactly what is needed, and come up with a world-class solution.
When finding the best tool to pick and place your loads, JRG has you covered. We offer a full spectrum of grippers, vacuum tools, spreader beams, hooks, and magnets to help your operator get the job done easily and efficiently.
Grippers are designed to your product specifications, and will use shop air as its energy source. The jaws can be made custom to fit irregular parts that are designed and engineered by AIMCO Manufacturing. These manipulators can also use pneumatic power to rotate and tilt the loads as needed.
AIMCO will design grippers to fit the exact need for the load and work space. This may include different combinations of acuating and fixed jaws, as well as multiple jaw sets. Click below to see some recent examples of AIMCO grippers:
When a simple pick and place is not enough for an operation, air powered tilts and rolls may be needed. This can be done to change the part orientation once gripped and in the air. Here are a few examples of grippers with rotations:

Flat parts, like sheet metal, are great for vacuuming tooling due to their smooth and non-porous surface. There are several options that JRG has for these tools, including standard economical units, and custom designed ones. These systems can run off either electrical power or shop air, depending on the customers needs.
When handling simple flat sheets with vacuum, there are several standard options to choose from. These tools can be used on a variety of cranes, with either rigid or non-rigid hoists. Here are a few examples of these tools:
When parts are complex, or additional manipulation is needed, JRG can supply custom vacuum solutions. These can be designed to grip in tight places, as well as adding tilts or rolls if required for the work process.

Using a simplistic tool that requires no external power, is the most economical and efficient handling method when possible. This can include the use of hooks, spreader beams, and custom lifting fixtures. Below are some examples of these style tools that are available from JRG:
Save on space without sacrificing strength and coverage by using a Gorbel Workstation Jib Crane. From capacities of 150 lbs. to 1,000 lbs., these versatile enclosed track cranes will last through the rigorous use of everyday production.
When a simple hook are spreader beam will not work for your application, JRG also can design a custom non-powered solution. Take a look at the link below for some previous examples of custom hook tools:

When harnessing the power of shop air, pneumatic hoists will run with the speed of the operator. These aluminum bodied head units are made to last, even in the harshest conditions. Please read more below about the air hoists that are commonly used in JRG work cells:
JRG can supply standard magnets that can be easily turned on or off with a simple lever or air controls. Some of these magnets can be placed below the hook with no power source need, while others can integrate into more complex systems requiring only shop air.
