About ASS Maschinenbau

ASS Maschinenbau GmbH is a German builder of gripper components, robot hands and automation systems with more than 40 years of experience, according to its official site, which is published primarily in German. Its core offer is the ASS robot hand construction kit, a modular system of more than 2,000 mechatronic components for handling parts regardless of component size or material, from which the company designs, engineers and manufactures robot hands, or end-of-arm tooling, to individual customer requirements. Beyond grippers, ASS builds automation systems ranging from compact workstations and manufacturing cells to fully automated turnkey solutions, and it works in automotive lightweight construction for e-mobility, 3D printing and fibre composite applications, including 3D-printed lightweight gripper components in fibre-reinforced materials.

The company states its site has been climate-neutral since 2021 and emphasises durable products, fast service and keeping gripper components in stock. ASS is headquartered at Klef 2 in Overath, Germany, and has been a portfolio company of INDUS Holding AG since 2002. For directory integrators, ASS is a modular EOAT and automation builder for automotive and plastics handling lines that need custom robot hands without starting from scratch.
