Description
Overview
The Abaco Automatic Glass Lifter grips glass sheets for movement with compatible hoisting equipment. Its automatic clamping mechanism opens and closes through the lifting cycle, while guiding shafts and upper rollers help position the sheet in the jaws.
Vulcanized rubber contact surfaces protect the glass at the clamp. Four lower wheels protect the unit during positioning, and the aluminum body limits the weight of the lifting attachment.
