Your partner for glazing in parametric architecture
Vacuum suction and lifting systems for the safe, precise installation of complex glass and façade elements – even for highly challenging, free-formed structures.
Where geometry meets precision
Parametric architecture offers virtually limitless design freedom and gives construction projects a distinctive architectural identity. However, the implementation of complex geometries places the highest demands on planning, handling and installation.
With our specialised vacuum suction and lifting systems, we enable the safe and precise installation of sophisticated glass and façade elements – even in the case of highly complex, free-formed structures.
Types of construction our equipment can handle
-
Multiaxial curved panes
Spatially curved glass elements with complex three-dimensional geometries.
-
Double-curved façades
Synclastic and anticlastic geometries for sculptural façade systems.
-
Free-formed geometries
Organic and irregular shapes without standard dimensions or axial symmetry.
-
Tight radii < 500 mm
Specialised technology for minimal bending radii – precise, gentle on the material and safe.

Technology for extraordinary projects
Vacuum suction systems
Thanks to individually adjustable suction cups and specially designed spacers, even the most challenging glazing can be installed efficiently and without damaging the material.
Glass Robot
Suitable for installation using special suction frames that are adapted to the individual curves of the façade elements.
Beams
Act as a counterweight to ensure precise installation beneath projections.
Typical applications:
-
Curved façade cladding
Free-formed and curved glass façades for iconic building envelopes – installed with precision, even where complex substructures are involved.
-
Structural glass envelope.s & canopies
Load-bearing glass structures and large-scale canopies with structural requirements relevant to installation and handling.
-
Iconic landmarks & cultural buildings
Museums, concert halls, airports: High-profile projects where aesthetics and safety are equally important.
-
Atriums & skylights
Complex interior structures with challenging lighting conditions and limited installation spaces.
