What information is needed before quotation?

For quotation, WOLIFT normally needs load weight, dimensions, material surface, lifting orientation, working cycle, pickup and release position, site space, power or air supply, and whether a crane, trolley or special frame is required.

How should the correct model be selected?

Model selection should be based on the actual load weight, workpiece size, lifting height, stroke, operating frequency, safety requirements and site layout. WOLIFT engineers can recommend a suitable model after reviewing the application.

What safety features are available?

WOLIFT vacuum lifting equipment can be supplied with CE compliance and vacuum holding function. The detailed safety factor, alarm, vacuum circuit and control design should be confirmed according to product type and application risk.

Can WOLIFT export and support overseas projects?

Yes. WOLIFT supplies equipment for global export and can provide pre-sales selection support, installation guidance, operation documentation and spare parts support for overseas customers.

Curved glass handling

Curved glass vacuum lifter for inner and outer curved surfaces

WOLIFT curved glass vacuum lifters are designed for curved glass hoisting, installation and handling. The bowl-shaped suction cups, cylindrical frame and adjustable cup positions help the lifter adapt to different glass curvatures, including inner-curve and outer-curve contact.

WOLIFT curved glass vacuum lifter for architectural glass

Curved architectural glass

Suitable for curved building glass that requires stable suction contact and controlled positioning.

Curved glass vacuum lifter for curtain wall glass installation

Curved curtain wall glass

Designed for curved curtain wall glass hoisting, facade installation and outdoor project handling.

Curved facade glass

Useful for curved facade panels where suction cup angle and position must match the glass arc.

Curved glass vacuum lifter for automotive windshield installation

Automotive windshield glass

Can be used as an extended solution for windshield glass handling and installation after curvature evaluation.

Selection note: Curved glass should be evaluated according to radius, arc direction, glass size, weight, suction contact area and whether the lifter needs to hold the inner curve or outer curve.

Curved surface design

Bowl-shaped suction cups and adjustable cylindrical frame

The curved glass lifter is different from a standard flat glass vacuum lifter. Its bowl-shaped suction cups can better follow curved surfaces, and the suction cup positions can be adjusted along the cylindrical frame to fit different glass arcs.

Bowl cups Bowl-shaped suction cups help maintain contact with curved glass surfaces.

Adjustable cups Suction cup positions can be adjusted according to glass size and curvature.

Cylindrical frame The round frame structure supports arc matching for curved glass handling.

Inner / outer The suction layout can be adjusted for inner-curve or outer-curve glass contact.

How to choose

Choose the right curved glass vacuum lifter series

WOLIFT offers manual and electric curved glass vacuum lifters according to load capacity, control preference, project size and positioning requirements.

WO-BLHM (s)Manual curved glass vacuum lifter, DC12V, 250-600 kg, with 0-90° manual flip and 0-360° manual rotation.

WO-BLHM (d)Electric curved glass vacuum lifter, DC48V, 400-600 kg, with 0-90° electric flip and 0-360° electric rotation.

Core functions

Focused on curved surface contact and arc adjustment

Operation video

Curved Glass Vacuum Lifter for Shaped Glass Handling

See how the WOLIFT curved glass vacuum lifter helps operators lift, move, position, and install curved glass, shaped glass, architectural glass, and special glass panels with better control. The system can be configured with a customized suction pad layout to match curved surfaces and support safer handling in glass production, curtain wall installation, warehouse transfer, and special glazing applications.

Curved glass vacuum lifter model reference

Model selection should consider curved glass weight, size, curvature radius, inner or outer arc contact, sucker quantity, power system and required flipping or rotation. Final configuration should be confirmed with WOLIFT engineers.

FAQ

Common questions about curved glass vacuum lifters

Can it handle both inner and outer curved glass?

Yes. The suction cup positions can be adjusted on the cylindrical frame to adapt to inner-curve or outer-curve contact, depending on the glass shape and lifting direction.

How do the suction cups adapt to curved glass?

The lifter uses bowl-shaped suction cups that can better follow curved glass surfaces. The cup positions and angles should be adjusted according to the glass curvature and contact area.

What is the difference between manual and electric models?

The WO-BLHM (s) series uses DC12V power with manual flip and manual rotation. The WO-BLHM (d) series uses DC48V power with electric flip and electric rotation plus wireless remote control.

Can it be used for automotive windshield glass?

Yes, it can be used as an extended solution for automotive windshield glass handling after confirming the windshield size, curvature, weight and required suction contact points.

What information is needed before model selection?

WOLIFT usually needs glass size, glass weight, curvature radius, inner or outer arc direction, pickup position, installation angle and whether manual or electric operation is preferred.
