Versatile Self‑Propelled Glazing Robot for Heavy Glass Installation | 5m Boom Height & 600kg Rated Load
Release time:2026-08-24
Multi‑function self‑propelled glazing robot with max 5m lifting height & 600kg rated load. Rough‑terrain capability, wired remote control, swap suction cups for hook for glass & material lifting.
Modern‑day glazing and facade construction demand reliable lifting equipment to handle heavy glass panels at height. Our self‑propelled glazing robot delivers robust lifting performance for glass fit‑out, curtain wall assembly and multi‑material hoisting on construction job‑sites. Built with electric‑hydraulic power, this vacuum lifting machine balances strong load capacity, flexible movements and excellent off‑site mobility for both indoor and outdoor working environments.
Equipped with an extended main boom, this glazing robot achieves a maximum lifting height of 5 meters. Its rated maximum load reaches 600 kg. Users should keep in mind that the actual safe working capacity varies depending on boom extension distance. When the boom is fully extended, the safe working load drops to 350 kg. Operators must follow the official load graph to ensure safe lifting operations. This unit is well‑suited to handle large insulated glass units, heavy curtain wall panels, oversized window glass and various facade glazing materials.
One key competitive advantage of this glass lifting robot is its interchangeable attachment design. The standard vacuum suction cup assembly can be quickly removed. Operators can swap it out for a lifting hook within a short time. Once the hook is installed, the machine works as a compact material hoist to lift stone slabs, metal frames, architectural panels and other heavy building components other than glass. Construction contractors can cut capital expenditure by using one machine to complete multiple lifting tasks, reducing the need to rent several separate pieces of lifting gear.
This glazing robot adopts front‑wheel 3.5 kW drive system and 6 pieces of Φ290 mm wheels, bringing strong rough‑terrain driving performance and good uphill capability. It is powered by two DC12V‑150Ah batteries, offering 6‑8 hours of continuous working time per full charge. Core movements including lifting, boom extension, endless 360° rotation, tilting and side shifting are electrically controlled via wired remote control. Side turning of up to 80 degrees on both sides is operated manually. The combination of remote electric control and manual adjustment gives operators high‑level flexibility to position glass precisely into window openings and curtain wall frames.
Compact body dimensions support easy movement across busy construction sites. It can navigate narrow passages and operate on uneven ground. Only one qualified operator is required to drive the machine, adjust boom positions and finish glass installation work. It greatly lowers labour requirements and minimizes safety risks caused by manual heavy‑glass handling.
This multi‑function vacuum lifting robot sees wide application in curtain wall installation, storefront glazing work, interior glass partition fitting, window replacement projects, facade renovation and new commercial building construction. For glazing contractors searching for a tough self‑propelled glazing robot with 5‑meter lifting height, 600 kg rated capacity and switchable attachments, this lifting solution brings real‑world efficiency to your site operations.
