Efficiency and versatility
With a lifting hook, these robots move heavy elements around sites, factories and industrial facilities—replacing riskier methods, boosting productivity and reducing damage and injury.
Mobility on wheels
Chassis on robust wheels handles smooth factory floors and moderately uneven job sites. The robot manoeuvres precisely in narrow aisles and cramped interiors—critical for big windows, glass panels or heavy components.
Pick-and-carry functionality
- Robust hook – safe lift of heavy items without extra grabbers/suction.
- Safer operations – machine does the heavy handling.
- High positional accuracy – lift, transport and set loads exactly without forklifts or additional aids.
Main use cases
- Transport/install large windows or glass panels – move and set elements quickly and safely with minimal damage risk.
- Lifting heavy materials on site – aluminium structures, prefabs, panel elements.
- Factories & warehouses – smooth movement between stations in constrained spaces.
- Pre-install staging – moving and setting structures ahead of façade or glazing work.
Key advantages
- Mobility & versatility – indoor and outdoor use.
- Ergonomics & operator safety – remote or pendant control from a safe distance.
- Lower costs & faster work – one robot replaces several people/machines.
- Precise positioning – accurate set-down without manual corrections.
- Supporting technologies – high-strength hook, radio/wired control, overload protection and motion interlocks.
Example scenarios
- Glazing installation – lift a pane or panel set, transport and place without touching the glass.
- Aluminium structures & prefabs – ergonomic placement even in tight bays.
- Logistics in plants – a nimble alternative to forklifts when overhead clearance is limited.
