Moving large panes, metal sheets, or composite panels by hand is slow, risky, and labor-intensive. Herochu’s telehandler pneumatic glass lifter and electric vacuum glass lifter series combine aerospace-grade suction technology with plug-and-play modularity, delivering a safe, efficient, labor-saving solution for hotels, curtain-wall contractors, metal-fabrication plants, and glass-processing workshops worldwide.

One Platform, Two Power Options
Model | Power Mode | Max Load | Plate Size | Cups | Key Use-Case |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
HC-PR3015-300 | Pneumatic / Electric | 300 kg | 3 000 × 1 250 mm | 8 × Ø200 mm | Interior glazing |
HC-PR3015-500 | Pneumatic / Electric | 500 kg | 3 000 × 1 250 mm | 8 × Ø200 mm | Curtain wall cassettes |
HC-PR3015-1000 | Pneumatic / Electric | 1 000 kg | 4 000 × 1 250 mm | 10 × Ø250 mm | Heavy glass, thick stone |
HC-PR4020-300 | Pneumatic / Electric | 300 kg | 4 000 × 1 250 mm | 8 × Ø200 mm | Sheet-metal loading |
HC-PR4020-500 | Pneumatic / Electric | 500 kg | 4 000 × 1 250 mm | 8 × Ø200 mm | CNC bending cell feed |
All units share a 120 kg lightweight frame (2 200 × 1 360 × 740 mm) that can be hooked to any telehandler, mini-crane, or overhead rail in under five minutes.

Four Reasons Fabricators Choose Herochu
- Intelligent Production Solution
PLC-controlled vacuum sequencing and auto-balance valves maintain ±2 % suction differential, eliminating panel drop risk even on textured or low-E glass. - Safety First – Air-Cut & Collision Protection
- Air-cut-off protection: spring-loaded non-return valve keeps load locked for >30 min if compressor or battery fails.
- 360° anti-collision frame: polyurethane bumpers and ultrasonic sensor stop motion before contact.
- Flexible & Convenient – Stop Anywhere
Short handling cycle (<30 s attachment to release) and continuously variable positioning let operators pause mid-air for alignment, reducing breakage during tricky corner installs. - Factory Direct & Wholesale Price
Built in Shandong, China and shipped worldwide, Herochu skips distributors to offer OEM/ODM customization at wholesale pricing starting at US$1,690.
Core Features & Options
- Universal Pad System
Swap foam pads in seconds to grip glass, metal, plastic, wood, or marble—no tools required. - Dual Release Modes
Choose pull-lever manual release on pneumatic models or electric release valve on battery units for one-touch unloading. - Custom Rigging
Adjustable cross-beam, extra suction cups, or stainless-steel frame available for corrosive environments (food & beverage, coastal construction). - Power Versatility
- Pneumatic: 6 bar shop air, ideal for indoor sites with compressor.
- Electric: 24 V lithium battery pack, 6 h runtime, 2 h quick charge—perfect for outdoor glazing where air lines are impractical.
Certified Compliance & Global Support
- Certifications: CE (Machinery Directive), UE (EMC), ISO 9001 (Quality Management).
- Warranty: 12 months on frame & vacuum system, 6 months on battery.
- Spare Parts Kit: 4 extra cups, 2 m air hose, battery charger, O-ring set included FOB.

Typical ROI Scenarios
Project | Manual Method | Herochu Lifter | Savings |
---|---|---|---|
Hotel curtain wall (800 panes) | 4 workers, 10 days | 2 workers, 6 days | 40 % labor, 40 % time |
Sheet-metal shop (CNC cell) | Forklift + 2 men | 1 man + lifter | 50 % labor, 30 % cycle time |
Solar glass plant (1 000 kg panels) | Overhead crane | Telehandler + lifter | Eliminates crane bottlenecks |
