Glassking Glass Lifter 600: A Safe and Efficient Solution for Handling Glass Panels
The Glassking Glass Lifter 600 is a specialised tool designed to safely and efficiently lift, move, and install glass panels of various sizes and weights. A suction glass lifter is a vital equipment for professionals in the construction, glazing, and shopfitting industries undertaking glass fitting projects.How the Glassking Glass Lifter 600 Works
The glass suction lifter has 6 suction cups connected to two separate vacuum pumps to create a seal on the surface of the glass panel. The suction seal allows the lifter to safely lift and manoeuvre the glass panel without the risk of it slipping or falling. Glass vacuum lifters are typically equipped with pumps that generate the vacuum and a control panel that allows the operator to regulate when to apply the suction force and when to release the glass. The control panel also informs the operator with both visual and audible alarms when the suction is sufficient to allow for a safe lifting operation to be carried out. Most of our lifters are equipped with a radio remote control to allow the operator to stay in a location where they can see exactly what’s happening.Benefits of Using the Glassking Glass Lifter 600
There are numerous advantages to using glass vacuum lifters over traditional methods of lifting glass panels by hand. Here are some of the key benefits:- Enhanced Safety: Glass vacuum lifters eliminate the need for manual handling of heavy glass panels, significantly reducing the risk of injuries caused by lifting, lowering, or carrying glass.
- Improved Efficiency: Glass vacuum lifters allow for faster and more efficient handling of glass panels, leading to increased productivity on the job site.
- Reduced Damage: The controlled suction of a glass vacuum lifter minimises the risk of damage to the glass panel and frame during transportation and installation.
- Precise Control: Glass vacuum lifters offer precise control over the movement of the glass panel, ensuring accurate positioning during installation.
Applications for Glassking Glass Lifter 600
Glass vacuum lifters are a versatile tool that can be used in a wide range of applications, including:- Construction: Installing glass windows, doors, curtain walls, and facades in commercial and residential buildings.
- Glazing: Replacing windows and installing new glass features in homes and businesses.
- Restoration: Lifting and manoeuvring glass panels during restoration projects.
- Stonework: Lifting and moving granite, marble, and other stone slabs.
Choosing the Right Glass Vacuum Lifter
When selecting a glass vacuum lifter, it is important to consider several factors, such as:- The size and weight of the glass panels you will be handling. Glass vacuum lifters come in a variety of capacities, so it is important to choose one that can safely lift the heaviest glass panels you will be working with.
- The type of glass you will be lifting. Some glass vacuum lifters are designed for specific types of glass, such as tempered glass or insulated glass units (IGUs).
- The lifting height required. Consider the maximum height you will need to lift the glass panels.
- The working environment. If you will be using the glass vacuum lifter in tight spaces, you will need to choose a model that is compact and manoeuvrable.
