AGM-R

AGM-R

Compensation unit
Modular compensation unit for rotational compensation around the Z-axis. The AGM-R can be used flexibly as a stand-alone solution. The AGM-R can also be combined with the existing series of the AGM product family. This means the right compensation behavior is always achieved for your application – ideal for correcting orientation and position inaccuracies.

If tolerances become a problem, AGM ensures reliable processes.

The AGM-R compensation unit expands the AGM product family by adding a rotational degree of freedom, enabling the compensation of positional deviations in automated handling and joining processes. It is inserted between the robot and the end-of-arm tool, ensuring that safe gripping and removal remains possible, even when parts are twisted or not positioned precisely . Through rotational compensation, constrainted conditions are reduced and process deviations are compensated — an important prerequisite for reliable and repeatable automation processes.

Always the right compensation behavior - across all axes and planes

The broad AGM portfolio enables compensation in XY, Z, W and their combinations XYZ and WZ.

Control gravity – regardless of mounting position and component weight​

Patented spring and air cartridges provide adjustable weight compensation and enable compensation from the neutral center position.

Modular and combinable — precisely tailored to your application

The modular design enables combinable compensation travels - compactly integrated to suit varying process requirements.

Battery handling in automotive production with AGM-XYR

In battery production, handling sensitive, high-value components is often challenging – especially when component positions or orientations are inaccurate or undefined.

The AGM-R compensates for rotational positional deviations and thus enables secure gripping and collision-free removal. This reduces unwanted forces and protects components and the system from damage.

The result is reliable processes with less scrap and reduced downtime.

  • Safe component handling despite position deviations
  • Sustainably minimize scrap and stoppages
  • Protect robots and end effector from unwanted loads
  • Can be flexibly combined for multidimensional compensation paths (XYR)

Advantages – Your benefits

  • Realize different applications with one series
    whether combined or individually, with the AGM-R series it is possible to handle components of different weights.
  • Precise alignment in the desired position without interrupting the process
    The central locking system can be used to move components into the neutral or middle position.
  • Know where the component is located at all times
    Thanks to the pneumatic position memory for eccentric locking in the rotated (deflected) position, the component’s location can be clamped.
  • Monitoring the status of the compensation unit in your process
    using the optional magnetic sensors to query the locked position.
