Green gripping systems
are our mission
– based on the gecko effect.

Grip and hold components without vacuum,
magnetism or pneumatics
With Gecomer® Technology, components can be handled using adhesive forces. Inspired by the so-called Gecko effect, the gripping, holding and placing of workpieces is performed without additional energy and thus without cables, electronics or compressed air.
Reduction of noise emissions
improvement of production conditions, occupational safety
New Automation Opportunities
in challenging environments such as clean rooms and vacuum production
Handling Fragile Objects or Surfaces
from μm² up to m²
CO₂ Footprint Reduction
thanks to handling without compressed air or vacuum infrastructure
Adhesive forces up to 2 kg/cm²
on smooth surfaces such as glass
Lifetime up to 2.5 million cycles
depending on the process conditions
