Glass Vacuum Lifter

The lifter is offered in multiple capacity options to suit different projects: 400 kg, 600 kg and 800 kg models. Choose the model that matches your panel weight and lifting requirements.

Typical model designations include HP-GX400-4S, HP-GX600-6S and HP-GX800-8S. They differ mainly by safe load capacity and standard suction-cup configuration (4, 6 or 8 pads). Other differences can include control options and optional accessories.

Suction pad options are 4, 6 or 8 cups, each with a diameter of 300 mm. The number of pads is selected based on glass size, weight distribution and the chosen capacity model.

Yes. The unit allows 360° rotation (manual) and 90° tilting (manual) to enable accurate alignment for curtain wall and glazing installations.

The lifter is powered by a 12 V DC rechargeable battery (typical pack shown is 15 Ah). Battery runtime depends on usage and configuration; charging time and charger type vary — consult the supplier for charger specifications and recommended spare batteries.

You can choose between wired controls and a remote control option. Controls operate vacuum on/off and any powered features; manual operations (rotation/tilt) are mechanical unless otherwise specified.

Standard safety features include low-vacuum alarms and visual indicators to alert the operator to loss of vacuum. Additional safety practices include locking handles or mechanical stops, use of safety straps, and following operator procedures.

The lifter is intended for flat, non-porous glazing such as annealed, tempered or laminated glass. Maximum thickness is determined by glass weight relative to the lifter's safe working load — consult the supplier’s load charts to match glass dimensions/thickness to the correct model and suction layout.

Yes. The glass surface must be clean, dry and free of heavy dust, frost, paint splashes or textured/porous coatings. Contaminants or rough surfaces can reduce seal effectiveness; always clean and inspect the surface before lifting.

Perform a pre-shift inspection of suction pads (for wear and damage), vacuum hoses and fittings, alarm and indicator function, battery state-of-charge and charger. Replace worn pads, remedy leaks, and follow the manufacturer’s periodic service schedule for vacuum pumps and electrical components.

Immediately stop movement and lower the load to a safe support. Check for obvious leaks, pad seating, surface contamination and battery voltage. Re-seat pads on a clean surface, recharge or swap batteries if needed, and do not resume lifting until vacuum levels are stable and alarms are clear.

Yes. Common custom options include alternative suction cup configurations, extension arms or frames for larger panels, different control systems (e.g., upgraded remotes) and spare or protective pads. Request available options from your supplier.

Transport and store the unit upright and secured to prevent shock. Protect suction pads from deformation and contamination (cover them). Remove or secure batteries per local transport regulations if shipping. Store in a dry environment away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.

Operators should be trained in safe rigging and vacuum lifter operation, including daily checks, emergency procedures and load handling best practices. Many jurisdictions require documented training for lifting equipment — consult local regulations and the supplier for recommended training programs.

Warranty terms and conformity to standards (e.g., CE, ISO) vary by manufacturer and region. Request the product certificate pack, test reports and warranty details from your supplier before purchase to verify compliance with applicable safety and performance standards.
