Aardwolf Glazing Robot - AGR-400
Overview
The Aardwolf AGR-400 is a compact self-propelled glass installation robot designed for curtain wall glazing, indoor glass installation, and material handling in restricted-access areas. Its compact dimensions allow easy transportation through standard residential elevators, making it an ideal solution for apartment renovations, high-rise projects, commercial buildings, and interior glazing applications.
Equipped with a powerful vacuum lifting system, the AGR-400 provides safe and efficient handling of glass panels and other smooth-surface materials. Powered lifting, tilting, rotation, and positioning functions help improve installation accuracy, jobsite safety, and overall productivity.
How It Works
The AGR-400 uses vacuum suction cups to securely grip glass panels before lifting and positioning them. Operators can control the machine directly from the rear platform or through the wired remote control system.
