Cut
Laser Automation
storage, load/unload, and denesting around your laser.
ABOUT · BALTIMORE, MD
We automate the machines you already own.
DeGama Automation engineers robotic material flow around your existing sheet-metal equipment — whatever the brand.
Most automation is sold as a new machine with the robotics bolted on. We do the opposite. We take the laser, press brake, or line you already run and build an automated cell around it — storage, loading, bending, deburring, sorting, and inspection, moving as one continuous flow. We sell the flow, not the cell.
WHAT WE DO
Four capabilities, one continuous flow.
We design, build, and commission automated cells across four disciplines — laser automation, press-brake automation, robotic deburring, and automated inspection. On their own, each removes a bottleneck. Together, they turn a shop full of standalone machines into a flow that cuts, deburrs, bends, and inspects with far less manual handling in between.
Deburr
Robotic Deburring
FANUC-mounted deburring tools that finish edges consistently.
Bend
Press-Brake Automation
robotic tending that keeps your brake bending, not waiting.
Inspect
Automated Inspection
Cognex vision that verifies parts and sheets automatically.
OUR APPROACH
Brand-agnostic. Retrofit-first.
The big machine builders would rather sell you their own automation, locked to their own equipment. That leaves a gap: the shop running a mix of brands, or a capable machine bought before automation could be justified. That gap is where we work. Because we're independent of any one machine maker, we integrate across whatever you already own — and because we specialize in retrofits, we know how to add automation to a working line without stopping production to do it. It's the difference between selling a box and engineering a flow.
ALL IN-HOUSE
The people who design your cell are the people who build it.
We keep every discipline under one roof. There's no handoff to a subcontractor between the engineer who designs your cell and the one who programs and commissions it — which is exactly why the flow holds together on your floor.
Mechanical & cell design
Tooling, end-of-arm tooling, and cell layouts modeled in Autodesk Inventor.
Controls engineering
Rockwell Automation control systems with FactoryTalk Optix operator interfaces.
Robotics & vision
FANUC robot programming and Cognex machine-vision inspection.
AMR integration
Otto Motors fleet orchestration and plant-floor material flow.
Field commissioning
On-site installation, tuning, and documented safety validation.
Project engineering
Gated delivery from first quote to final handover.
OUR TOOLSET
Proven platforms, integrated as one system.
We standardize on the industrial platforms our customers already trust, and make them work together as a single cell: FANUC for robotics, Otto Motors for autonomous mobile robots, Rockwell Automation and FactoryTalk Optix for controls and operator interface, Cognex for machine vision, and Autodesk Inventor for mechanical design. Naming them isn't a claim of partnership — it's a statement of what we're expert in.
HOW WE DELIVER
A gated method, so nothing drifts.
Every project runs the same disciplined path — thirteen defined phases, each ending at a signoff gate you control, from on-site assessment through years of lifecycle support. You always know what's done, what's next, and what you're approving.

WHY DEGAMA
Independent, integrated, accountable.
Independent
Not tied to a single machine brand, so the cell is designed to fit your equipment and your part mix.
Integrated
Mechanical, controls, robotics, vision, and AMRs engineered together, under one roof.
Accountable
One team owns the project end to end, with a signoff gate at every stage.
