Glass Lifter - AGL22
Overview
The Aardwolf AGL22 is a mechanical glass lifter designed for lifting and handling flat glass sheets with a thickness range of 2–22 mm.
The lifter automatically grips the glass when lifted and releases it when the glass is set down. This helps simplify handling and reduces the risk of operator error, especially in repetitive tasks.
With its straightforward mechanical design, the AGL22 is suitable for use in workshops, warehouses, and on-site glass installation.
How It Works
When lifting begins, the pulling force causes the clamp to grip the glass firmly, keeping it stable during movement.
Once the glass is placed down completely, the clamp opens automatically, allowing the operator to remove it easily.
The gripping and releasing process happens naturally as part of the lifting and lowering motion.
Key Features
- Automatic gripping during lifting: Ensures the glass is held securely throughout the lifting process.
- Automatic release when set down: Reduces manual handling and improves workflow efficiency.
- Side support arms for stability: Help keep the glass in an upright position, reduce movement during handling, and improve control when placing the glass.
- Suitable for thin to medium glass: The 2–22 mm range covers common glass thickness used in practice.
Applications
- Glass fabrication workshops
- Glass manufacturing facilities
- Glass storage and handling areas
- Interior and construction glass installation
Usage Notes
Do not use the lifter on wet or oily glass surfaces, as reduced friction may increase the risk of slipping. The glass surface should be clean and dry before lifting.
Always position the lifter at the center of the glass to maintain balance. Ensure the glass is fully seated inside the clamp before lifting.
Do not use the lifter on cracked or unstable glass. Never stand under a suspended load during operation.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should I use the AGL22 glass lifter?
The AGL22 is suitable for handling thin to medium glass sheets, especially in environments where speed and repeated handling are required.
Why should glass not be lifted when wet or dirty?
The clamp relies on surface friction to hold the glass. If the surface is wet, oily, or dusty, the grip may be reduced, increasing the risk of slipping.
Can the glass lifter lift multiple sheets at the same time?
Yes, it can lift up to two glass sheets at the same time, as long as they are the same size and securely fixed together.
Is the lifter stable when handling larger glass panels?
Yes. The side support arms help keep the glass upright and reduce movement during lifting and positioning.
What is the warranty period?
The Aardwolf AGL22 comes with a 24-month manufacturer warranty.
