Pneumatic and Electric Robotic End-of-Arm Tooling
At Givens Automation & Machine, we engineer, design and manufacture tooling for robot equipment. We have a long history of making lightweight, compact and robust End-of-Arm Tools. We have a wealth of experience making custom EOAT that can grip multiple variations of the same part. We have provided EOAT for almost every automobile part that exists! Givens Automation & Machine can build any category of EOAT, including pneumatic gripping, electric gripping, magnetic lifting, and vacuum cup lifting.
Electric Grippers
We offer both pneumatic and electric gripper options for part pickup. With our patent-pending electric gripper system, we can provide an electric gripper that operates in the same way you would expect a pneumatic cylinder to work, without the need for any pneumatic options on your robot. This keeps your robotic system free from pneumatic controls and will make for a more precise, quiet, maintenance-free setup. Our electric grippers offer 500 lb of grip force.

Pneumatic Grippers
We create pneumatic gripping EOAT so routinely, that we have our own line of lightweight pneumatic gripper assemblies. We make these in various sizes, strokes, and capacities to suit most applications.
Vacuum EOAT
Vacuum cups are a cost-effective solution to lift parts with flat or smooth surfaces, like sheet metal and glass. A vacuum EOAT can be very light weight as well, potentially saving costs by allowing a lower capacity robot to be used. Vacuum tools are also very useful in situations where the exterior edges of the part or the bottom of the part are not available to touch and lift
Sensing
We offer a range of options, from simple part sensing with proximity sensors all the way up to a full color vision system with barcode and QR code identification.
Inspection
If you are looking for part inspection instead of part moving, we can design and build vision system EOAT to inspect finishes, color quality, part damage or dimensional issues on multiple sides of a part with a single camera system attached to the robot.
