Tight Recess Glass Install

A customer required three large glazing units to be installed with one in a deep and narrow recess. This presented an issue as it would be a challenge to find a machine that could safely reach into the recess without damaging the glass. The units were to be installed within one day which meant the GGR Group lifting team had to work quickly and efficiently.

For installing the glass in the recess the GF42 Pick and Carry Crane and the P11104 Glass Vacuum Lifter were selected. The GF42 had a small working footprint and 180-degree hydraulic steering enabling it to squeeze as close as possible to the recess. Using the P11104 with dual vacuum circuits GGR were able to position the large glass unit accurately for an easy install.
