Lifting and transport specialist Heavydrive is presenting its glass installation robot. The 7-axis manipulator has been further developed and now offers even more stability and precision. Here are the details.
The ski museum at Holmenkollen in Oslo is a testament to the rich history of skiing. In order to equip the historic building with a modern glass facade, a demanding glass installation was required, which was preceded by precise planning. Under extreme weather conditions and time pressure, a team from Heavydrive then carried out the installation of 40 large, heavy glass elements.
With the patented vacuum handling devices of the Grabo series, manufacturer Nemo Power Tools has developed a versatile electric tool for use on construction sites and in workshops.
The installation of the spherical-curved facade at the MOL Campus in Budapest called for special equipment. With their flexible glass mounting solutions, Heavydrive was able to provide exactly what was needed.
As a full-range supplier, Hova from Austria not only offers vacuum lifters and individual lifting devices, but also much more: aluminium rail systems and aluminium slewing cranes in smooth-running design are also part of the extensive portfolio. Here you can find out what the supplier will be showing at Fensterbau in Nuremberg starting tomorrow.
In the construction of high-rise buildings, structural ducts and facade glass often have to be installed under the ‘moving’ scaffolding structure and under building projections. This is often complex. We show which solutions are available to simplify such installations.
The former euroTech Vertriebs GmbH is now starting the new year with vigour under the new name "euroTech Handling GmbH". The change in the company name emphasises the further development as a specialist for handling solutions and marks the expansion of the range of services beyond vacuum technology. Here are the details:
The spectacular installation of a mega window for a luxury hotel in Rovinj in Croatia was carried out with the help of a Heavydrive suction system. With its dimensions of 15 metres in length, 3.2 metres in height and weighing 5.2 tonnes, the glass pane posed an enormous challenge for the fitters.
euroTech’s new attachment module for telescopic loaders and loader cranes eT-Litocran700 combines the features of a telescopic loader with the fine control of a vacuum lifter. Here are the details on how it works.
The Austrian manufacturer of vacuum lifting and handling equipment offers a versatile range of devices that is individually designed and adapted for the customer’s needs. Here are more details:
Almost two years after the ground breaking ceremony, Schmalz recently opened the expansion of its US location. The expansion of the branch in Raleigh, North Carolina, has created space for around 60 new jobs.
The TGT Robby 2000, which can lift loads of up to 2000 kg, is a brand new addition to our product range. Equipped with a crane hook, it has a working height of approx. 7.5 metres and a horizontal reach of over 5 metres. With a flyjib it reaches a working height of over 8.4 metres. The TGT Robby 2000 is a pick and carry unit that does not require supports during installation.
For the construction site at Frankfurt Airport’s new Terminal 3, Heavydrive has been commissioned to provide the equipment to install the facade glass. To make sure that everything goes smoothly when it counts, the company has now performed a test run in Austria.
According to Bohle, the Liftmaster Quadro Pro models are the first battery-powered lifting systems with GS certification. They thus comply with DIN EN 13155 and are subject to regular product and production audits.
The Danish manufacturer of glass lifters, Smartlift, has presented its brand new SL 609 HLE RT at Frontale in Nuremberg on 12 July 2022. Here is a look at the new device.
With the eT-Litocran700, Eurotech introduces a newly designed installation device that has an extremely high level of 3D fine control, which allows very fast and, above all, precise installation of windows as well as glass and facade elements.
Positive news from the German window market, VIG out-performs triple IGUs, vacuum lifting without ugly marks and a new vertical edge processing machine. Here are our top stories of the week:
When glass panes are used in the glass and window industry, vacuum cups are usually used. It is not uncommon for everything to seem fine at first after the glass has been installed, but when the glass pane condenses, suction marks become visible that cannot be easily removed. To avoid this, euroTech has developed a suction plate cover. GW-News wanted to know from Head of Sales, Michael Renger, how this works.
An unusual installation in the Swiss mountains: A house at 2000 m above sea level required the installation of a glass plate weighing 2 tonnes. See in this video of the installation how a special vacuum lifter was able to help get the job done:
For a glass processor to have invested in lifting equipment would not, on the face of it, seem newsworthy. However, this purchase marks the 2.500th sale of an Easy-Lifter glass lifting machine for Glaston.
The customer requests for lifting devices for roof and canopy installation have prompted TGT Managing Director Heinz Teupen to develop suitable devices and to include them in his product range. Here we show which devices these are.
TGT's range of assembly assistants has recently been extended by the hyCrane 1000, which can easily handle loads of up to 1000 kilograms. Here you can find out how fitters can use it to lift and move facade elements and glass up to a height of 19 metres.
With the new V-H 150 seculift, Hegla and the Hegla New Technology innovation centre present a new generation of the V-H suction device for lifting, setting down and manipulating glass. See here in detail how it all works:
The eT-Hover-univac range of vacuum lifting devices is expanding: It now includes the eT-Hover-univac-line. The newly developed lifting device is a more compact, lightweight version of the eT-Hover-univac.
