FullSharp installed a 200 kg aluminum rail along a processing area with a pneumatic hoist and a vacuum lifting pad, for glass, sheet metal and plastic panels moving between the cutting machine and inspection table. The panel is held flat and level and slides along the rail, so it no longer vibrates in two workers' hands or chips its edges.
Large glass, sheet metal, or plastic panels need to move between the cutting machine and the inspection table. Carrying them by hand takes two people, the panel vibrates with every step, and a single bump chips the edge.
FullSharp installed an aluminum rail along the processing area, with a pneumatic hoist and a vacuum lifting pad hanging below. The panel is held flat and level, then slides along the rail to the next position.

Equipment Installed
- 200 kg aluminum rail: a lightweight formed aluminum rail, simply ceiling-mounted, with the trolley sliding very smoothly.
- Pneumatic hoist: lifts and lowers via air valve, stopping at any height and holding the load when released.
- Vacuum lifting pad: a rubber base attaches to the panel surface, distributing the holding force evenly across the suction area.
- Valve and air gauge assembly: filters and stabilizes incoming air pressure, clearly indicating when there's enough vacuum to lift the panel.
Key Specifications
- Aluminum rail load capacity200 kg
Benefits for Your Plant
Panel stays flat
Suction across the surface keeps the panel from sagging or vibrating in transit.
No surface scratches
The soft rubber contact works safely on glass and painted sheet metal.
Lightweight, quiet system
The aluminum rail and pneumatic hoist run smoothly with minimal vibration and noise in the plant.

Frequently asked questions
How do you move flat panels without scratching them?
Lift them with a vacuum pad that holds the face flat, and carry them along a rail instead of by hand. The panel does not touch tables or other panels on the way.
What load does the aluminum rail carry?
The rail in this project is rated at 200 kg. Aluminum rails are light, so the trolley pushes easily along the processing line.
Where is this panel handling setup used?
Glass cutting and grinding shops, sheet metal and plastic panel processing, flat part assembly lines and panel packing areas.

Consultation for Your Plant
FullSharp measures the panel size, thickness, weight, and surface material to select the right vacuum pad and pneumatic hoist size. We check the compressed air supply in your plant, install the aluminum rail line, and run a test with an actual panel.
