Heavydrive at BAU 2019

The countless visitors to our trade fair stand at the BAU 2019 got to see for themselves the performance capability of Heavydrive’s systems.

It simulates construction site conditions, even unusual ones, and tests out the different possible glass mounting solutions.
It has been used at the fair to discuss and plan many construction projects in advance.

Heavydrive auf der GANA BEC Conference 2017
Günter Übelacker gives a lecture at the North American Glass Expert Forum in Las Vegas
Günter Übelacker was invited as a speaker for a panel discussion. Together with eight other entrepreneurs, the Heavydrive managing director presented the Heavydrive suction systems, assembly cranes and glass transport devices and answered questions from the audience. The assembly solutions for extremely large and heavy panes met with great interest from the North American glass specialists. “In North America, a pane size of six to eight meters has been used so far. Heavydrive places panes up to 18 meters long and weighing up to six tons. This is a rarity for the American market and opens up new possibilities for the future for building contractors, ” explains Günter Übelacker.
