This month GGR is launching four new products. We have the Hydraulica 4000 glass vacuum lifter that comes with market-leading quad-circuit technology and is the largest lifter currently on the UK market. Another glass vacuum lifter we are adding is the MRTA8 Quadra-Tilt, capable of handling loads up to 635kg with ease. Next is the Cobra 550, a versatile glazing robot that is able to lift loads of up to 550kg from the ground up to 4 metres. Last but by no means last is our new, mid-range counterbalancer the Libro 800 that can handle loads of 800kg at height.

MRTA8 Quadra-Tilt

MRTA8 SquareOur ever-improving range of glass vacuum lifters has been bolstered by the future-proofed MRTA8 Quadra-Tilt. The MRTA8 Quadra-Tilt glass vacuum lifter features a four-bar tilt mechanism, making tilting heavy loads between flat and upright much smoother. This versatile machine benefits from 360° manual rotation and 90° assisted manual tilt. The dynamic MRTA8 Quadra-Tilt has removable vacuum pads and extension arms, meaning it can handle loads of varying shape and size.

Engineered to lift loads of up to 320kg in a 4 pad configuration and 635kg in an 8 pad configuration, the MRTA8 Quadra-Tilt window sucker is ideal for lifting smooth, non-porous materials such as glass, sheet metal and composite panels.

Libro 800 Counterbalancer

Libro SquareThe addition of a new counterbalance to our already comprehensive range gives us the opportunity to offer customers the perfect piece of lifting kit for their project. The Libro 800 is a compact overhang beam, which is able to lift loads up to 800kg. This counterweight balancer is capable of installing glass, curtain walling and cladding below overhangs of up to 1550mm and can lift loads at full capacity at each working length.

The Libro 800 overhang beam features an integrated hook and can be used with one of GGR’s below-the-hook vacuum lifters. This compact overhang beam can be attached to both mobile or tower cranes and is suitable for installation projects at height. The Libro 800 features an anti-tilt switch, which stops the counterweight balancer tilting past ±10° to ensure safe lifting.

The Libro 800 is fitted with a rechargeable battery to power the adjustable 30 counterweight rack and pinion saddle. Controlled by cable remote, the counterweight saddle can be moved along the beam to balance the load being lifted.
