HEGLA "Isofix" Glass Handling Device

Which three criteria should be taken into account when choosing a vacuum lifter? Holger Brechtelsbauer, Senior Product Manager for Vacuum Lifting Equipment at HEGLA:

• Efficiency and adaptation: The ideal lifting equipment should be compatible with frequently used pane formats and weights, but not oversized.
• Safety and user-friendliness: Operator safety is the highest priority. Ergonomic designs such as pillar-guided systems ensure stability and precise freedom of movement, resulting in greatly increased user comfort.
• Fit for the future, thanks to integration: In digitalised production, the handling device remains a central link. Its integration in digital processes – e.g. through laser marking or label scans – enables flexible and efficient communication between machine and operator.

Early, holistic planning is the key to optimised processes!
