EASY’LIFTERS
Ergonomic, universal handling equipment
Looking to handle flat glass efficiently?
Here are three reasons why Glaston EASY'LIFTERS are your best choice
1.
Careful load handling
2.
Minimized operator effort
3.
Quick, efficient and safe glass lifting
One-column lifters
Glass handling made easy
One-column lifters simplify glass handling thanks to their low dead weight and rigid guidance. The vacuum lifters are used in an X–Y craneway or slewing crane. All functions of the lifting equipment with a column are achieved pneumatically. The vacuum lifting technology works using Venturi nozzles.
- Enables unrivaled simple lifting, tilting or inclining, and turning of glass plates
- Suction using Venturi nozzles or a vacuum pump powered by compressed air
- Available in versions with a lifting capacity of 150, 250, 350 or 500 kg
- For simple vertical transportation
- Enables lifting, tilting, inclining and turning (also endless)
- Available in versions with a lifting capacity of 150 or 250 kg
- Safe, simple and functional design with rigid handling equipment guidance
- Accurate positioning via stepless, adjustable lifting speed
- Vacuum creation through powerful Venturi nozzles, which include a latching system for each suction pad
- Functionally designed operating elements
- Adjustable suction pads
- Low dead weight
- Low maintenance requirements
- Easy-to-operate lifter for the positioning and removal of vertical glass units
- Particularly suitable for the lifting and turning of smaller glass plates up
to 2 m2 - Lifting capacity of up to 250 kg
Two-column lifters
All-inclusive device for handling heavy glass units
The two-column lifter simplifies the handling of big and heavy glass units thanks to rigid guidance. The two-column variant lifts, tilts, inclines and turns glass plates weighing up to 1,000 kg. The vacuum lifting device is utilized in an X–Y craneway in lightweight construction. The vacuum is generated on the suction lift either using an electrical vacuum pump or Venturi nozzles.
Manipulators
Vacuum hoists that can be used flexibly
The manipulators are particularly suitable for use in chain hoists, cable hoists or hall cranes. Vacuum is generated either using an electrical vacuum pump or Venturi nozzles.
- For use on vertical glass processing machines, such as grinding machines
- Continuously turns glass plates electronically
- Addition to the one-column lifter for oversized glass units
- Available in versions with a lifting capacity of up to 2,000 kg
- Suction unit for the vertical transport, carrying or turning of glass plates by up to 90°
- Often used in insulating glass production and window construction
- Available in various types with a lifting capacity of up to 350 kg
- Manual or pneumatic turning function
- Special equipment to be hung in hoisting gear
- Tilts and turns glass plates where horizontal to vertical positioning movements have to be made
- Available in versions with a lifting capacity of up to 5,000 kg
Accumulator lifters
Practicable solutions for vertical glass handling
These glass suction devices are ideal for the vertical handling of glass, for example, in a storage or cutting area.
- Standard device for vertical glass transport of heavy and large glass units of up to even jumbo sizes
- Vertical glass handling and removal from an insulating glass line
- Available in versions with a lifting capacity of up to 2,500 kg
- Also available as a very light suction lifter to transport units in a lifting device
- Autonomous, battery-powered glass suction device for mobile use
- Ideal for use on construction sites
- Flexible use in diverse lifting devices
- Variable combination of suction pads and connectors
- Available in versions with a lifting capacity of 220 or 600 kg

“We are very satisfied with the quality of our new RC Series tempering line and the glass it produces. The Vortex Pro convection control system is excellent. The furnace made by Glaston China is just as well manufactured as the previous furnace we bought from Glaston’s factory in Finland,” says Frank Calderón Gómez, Managing Director at Full Glass in Lima, Peru.

Tim Widner at Lippert Components in the US is sharing his and his team's experiences working with the Glaston glass processing machinery. "The new equipment has been a great addition to us. We are able to one-piece flow our raw material through our line, hands-free. No humans come in contact with the glass until it is fully tempered and at the end of the process."
