EGS Automation to Showcase New Automation Solution at AMB 2026 in Stuttgart From September 15 to 19, 2026, AMB will open its doors to the international visitors of the metalworking industry. As a marketplace and networking platform, the event covers the entire value chain of metalworking processes, from manufacturing systems, tools, metrology, and software to automation and handling solutions. With three decades of expertise in industrial robotics, EGS Automation will also be exhibiting at the show, presenting a new automation solution for flexible workpiece processing. SUMO Quatroplex Flex AI: Simplifying Automation for Changing Workpieces  As product lifecycles become increasingly shorter and product variants continue to grow, programming and setup times are taking up an ever-larger share of manufacturing operations. This is exactly where SUMO Quatroplex Flex AI comes in. Developed specifically for high-mix, low-volume applications, the intelligent automation cell enables cost-effective automation even when products and production orders change frequently. Using Intrinsic Intelligence, the system creates a digital twin based on CAD data. From this digital model, the required robot movements and process sequences are generated automatically. The result is significantly reduced programming effort, shorter setup times, and a faster production start. The EGS Smart Pad, serving as the central interface between operator and automation system, provides access to all functions through an intuitive touchscreen interface. No matter what the future brings, with SUMO Quatroplex Flex AI the process is simple: Teach. Load. Produce. Experience the robotic cell live at AMB 2026 and see how maximum flexibility and outstanding cost-efficiency can go hand in hand. The experts from EGS Automation look forward to personally discuss and create the future of intelligent manufacturing.

Maximum Flexibility, Clear Structure, and Future-Proof Performance EGS Automation GmbH has completely redesigned its SUMO tray stacker portfolio and introduces the new SUMO Ecoplex2 and SUMO Ecoplex3 models – a streamlined, highly scalable platform built to handle virtually any automated tray-stacking requirement. The new structure reduces complexity, enhances flexibility, accelerates delivery times, and provides a clearer and more intuitive product offering. By consolidating decades of automation expertise into a simplified platform, EGS delivers a portfolio that covers every major tray-handling need, from changing formats to varying stack heights and diverse robot configurations. Lean Portfolio, Broad Application Range The former Ecoplex2 and Megaplex solutions have evolved into a modular two-model platform: SUMO Ecoplex2 with two loading bays and SUMO Ecoplex3 with three. Both versions support EGS loading trolleys as well as customer-specific floor rollers and accommodate a wide range of tray formats, including 600×400 mm, 800×600 mm, and smaller sizes. The Ecoplex2 remains available with various infeed/outfeed conveyor configurations and with AGV stack transfer options. Higher Efficiency, Superior Flexibility, Intuitive Operation Standardizing the platform significantly shortens planning and integration phases, enabling rapid deployment into diverse production settings - from injection molding and CNC machining to packaging and measuring applications. Despite its compact footprint, the SUMO Ecoplex2 offers large, expandable storage capacity to ensure long autonomous run times. A major highlight is the rollout of the EGS SmartPad across all new SUMO tray stacker models. The intuitive interface enables parameter setup, recipe management, and real-time production data visualization - without requiring any robot programming expertise. Modular, Compatible, Energy-Efficient – Built for the Future The redesigned SUMO systems feature a modular architecture, allowing the seamless integration of additional functions. By supporting electric rather than pneumatic axes, the systems reduce energy consumption and minimize maintenance requirements. Compatibility with existing internal logistics ensures that customer-owned trolleys and floor rollers can be reused without modification. With the new SUMO Ecoplex2 and SUMO Ecoplex3 platform, EGS Automation sets a strong benchmark for efficient, flexible, and future-ready tray stacking automation.
