1995 Other Saturn Models 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Manual

in the last 6 years the car has run through multiple alternators starters and batteries we took it in to be repaired but the could not find any thing wrong except that the amperage from the alternator was only in the 20-30 range when it should be in the80 bto 100 range the voltage and every thing else check out and all the grounds are working okay to do you have any ideas on what the problem might be?Or how to fix it?
