Robotic glass lifter
The Vector 600-1320 MP glazing robotic lifter by Quattrolifts includes a vacuum head, and a hydraulic winch with jib and fork tynes to lift pallets. All attachments have the capacity to lift up to 1,320 pounds. It is all-hydraulic for durability and reliability and can work in cold environments. With no steering handle, the Vector 600 MP is driven and steered by wireless remote control, allowing the operator to position themselves safely while driving and operating.
Automated production line
The MC 316 Fabcenter automated production line by Mecal is an advanced manufacturing cell, sawing and machining line, for aluminum and PVC windows and doors, or similar extrusions. Consisting of a horizontal loading table with user-definable partitions, the processing unit contains a 3-axis sawing head and 6-spindle—with an option for 8—machining element with 360-degree rotation of the tool-holding frame. A material rotation axis on the gripper to add machining capability is optional.

Welder
Sturtz Machinery Inc.’s SMI-HSM-30/25-Turbo-CL ContourLine welder features seamless welding on visible surfaces of a frame or sash. The company’s process eliminates the need for cleaning visible surfaces, as well as the need to touch up corners of painted or laminated windows. This is accomplished without sacrificing weld strength.
