The first pneumatic pliers (PB) are created and Gimatic registers its first patent. Already a leader in the handling market, Gimatic decides to invest in electronics to increase its competitiveness. It therefore develops magneto resistive, electronic and impact sensors. The company gains structure and the change in its legal status becomes essentia... l. Gimatic staff grows and the company moves to a 21,500 square foot building. Gimatic enters the robotic end of arm tooling market with their launch of a complete line of framing components and end effectors specifically designed for handling plastic injection molded parts. Gimatic's EOAT concept was developed with input from gantry style robot manufacturer and injection molding company personnel. Gimatic expands not only in terms of its business but also territorially, doing so by opening its first commercial branch based in Novara, Italy. Gimatrade Srl is simply the forerunner and today Gimatic is proud to boast 10 sister companies (4 Italian and 6 foreign). GimaticUSA is established to provide sales and engineering support and distribution of Handling, Mechatronics, and Sensor products throughout North America. The continued growth of Gimatic made another move necessary. The company went from headquarters measuring 21,500 square feet to a new one of 54,000. Gimatic is quickly becoming a worldwide market leader in Mechatronics. The eye on the future today takes the form of Gimatic's active interest in the electric actuator market. Gimatic's industry-proven pneumatic and electric grippers are easily adapted to, and maximize the high repeatability of the growing Collaborative Robot market. Gimatic also utilizes 3D printing technology to innovate faster and better optimize its production capacity.Read More
