The Germany-based Andreas Maier GmbH & Co KG (AMF) – a leading global player in the fields of clamping, hand tools and locks – highlighted its zero-point clamping system at IMTEX 2023. "Our zero point systems play very important part in metalworking industries where manufacturing happen in batches. We supply hydraulic clamping for mass production. For batch production (where different products are manufactured on the same set up), we recommend our zero point system which saves about 90 per cent time when changeover takes place. This enhances productivity of the machine. This clamping system is getting lot of traction in India,” informed Vishwanath Ammanagi, Director - Sales and Marketing, Andreas Maier Workholding Technology Pvt Ltd - a subsidiary of AMF.

While AMF has been serving Indian customers for more than 30 years, the Indian subsidiary was incorporated in 2009. Its wide range of products find applications in different industries like automotive components, general engineering, earthmoving equipment, farm equipment, textiles machinery, etc. "India has huge manufacturing potential with many overseas companies setting up production base in the country. Since inception in 2009, AMF business in India has shown consistent high growth and we expect the momentum to continue in the coming years as manufacturing activities pick up in the country,” said Vishwanath Ammanagi.
