Construction sites within the EU are obliged to respect and conform to specific safety norms and regulations. These regulations also apply to the machinery used for the transport of material. For glass we refer to EN 13155 standard for vacuum lifting devices, which must have a backup vacuum system with corresponding monitoring functions. Pannkoke Flachglastechnik makes glass handling equipment with these characteristics which, as seen in this article, is put to good use in the installation of curved laminated safety glass.
