Jib Crane with Pneumatic Hoist and Vacuum Pad

Large flat panels such as glass, sheet metal, or stone slabs are hard to grip. With nowhere to hold on, carrying them by hand is dangerous, while strapping them with cable often cracks the corners and scratches the finished surface.

FullSharp installs a jib crane carrying a pneumatic hoist together with a large-area vacuum lifting pad. The suction cups grip the panel surface evenly, and a safety valve holds the vacuum if air pressure drops. The arm rotates 180 to 360 degrees, so a panel can be taken from the rack and placed onto the machine table in a single pass.

Equipment installed

Jib crane: floor-mounted or wall-mounted, arm rotating 180 to 360 degrees around the column.
Pneumatic hoist: runs on the workshop's compressed air, lifting and lowering smoothly and stopping at the exact height.
Vacuum lifting pad: a large-area suction surface, gripping flat, smooth surfaces such as glass, sheet metal, stone, or wood panels.
Pressure regulator and safety valve: warns and holds the load when air pressure drops.
Control handle: combines lift, lower, and release buttons for one-hand operation.

Key specifications

Rotation angle180 to 360 degrees

Benefits for the workshop

Keeps panel surfaces clean

Vacuum suction replaces cable slings, so finished panels stay free of scratches and chipped corners.

No electrical power needed

The lifting unit runs on compressed air, safe for use in damp areas or where flammable dust is present.

Compact one-person operation

Lifts, rotates, and places a panel in a single pass without calling in extra help.

Consultation for your workshop

FullSharp measures the panel's dimensions and weight and checks the surface flatness to calculate the number of suction cups needed. Our engineers select the arm reach based on the actual site layout. The equipment is installed and test-run with real panels before handover.
