Righetti Glass Vacuum Lifters

Engineered for Precision, Safety, and Maximum Flexibility on the Job Site

When handling heavy glass, windows, and architectural panels, safety and control are non-negotiable. Monitor Lifts is proud to offer a premium range of Righetti Glass Vacuum Lifters, designed to seamlessly integrate with your mini cranes, spider lifts, and dedicated lifting equipment.

Manufactured with world-class Italian engineering, these battery-powered suction lifters combine ultra-lightweight frames with incredible lifting capacities ranging from 300kg to 1200kg. Whether you are navigating tight residential installs or managing heavy commercial glazing, the Righetti GLX and VB series deliver unmatched modularity and European-certified safety.

Why Choose Righetti Vacuum Lifters?

• Universal 18V Battery Power: Forget proprietary charging systems. These lifters run on universal 18V 5Ah lithium batteries. With the right adapter, you can power your lifter using the same batteries you use for your everyday power tools (Milwaukee, Makita, DeWalt, etc.).
• Unrivaled Modularity: Adapt to any job. With extension kits, removable arms, and repositionable suction pads, a single machine can be configured for long, narrow panels or wide, heavy architectural glass.
• Smooth Handling: Every model features continuous 360° rotation and 0-90° tilting (manual, assisted, or electric options available) for perfect load placement.
• EN13155 Certified Safety: Work with total peace of mind. Righetti lifters exceed European safety standards with dual or quad vacuum circuits, integrated vacuum reservoirs, and an intelligent Vacuum Control Unit (VCU) featuring audio-visual alarms to warn you of low pressure.

Compare the Range: GLX & VB Series

Righetti GLX300: The Ultra-Lightweight Champion

The GLX300 is the lightest model in the Righetti lineup. Weighing in at just 28kg, it protects the lifting capacity of your smaller mini cranes while still effortlessly handling glass up to 300kg. Featuring a single massive 810x420mm suction pad and a four-circuit safety system, it is the ultimate grab-and-go solution for residential and light-commercial glazing.

Righetti GLX600: Maximum Modularity for Mini Cranes

Built specifically for mini cranes where weight and versatility matter, the GLX600 shares the lightweight DNA of the GLX300 but doubles the capacity. Through its highly modular frame and interchangeable extension kits, you can easily configure the lifter to safely handle varied glass shapes and weights up to 600kg.

Righetti VB600: The Versatile All-Rounder

The VB600 fuses a lightweight machine body with a standard 4-pad configuration (315mm diameter pads). Out of the box, it handles 400kg, but simply add the PRO or XL extension arms to increase your gripping footprint and lift up to 600kg. Its fully enclosed machine body protects internal components from harsh job site conditions.

Righetti VB1200: Heavy-Duty Commercial Lifting

When the glass gets heavy, the VB1200 steps up. Designed for massive windows, curtain walls, and architectural canopies, this lifter features four large 390mm suction pads for a base capacity of 600kg. By adding the long extension arms, it transforms into an 8-pad powerhouse capable of lifting a massive 1200kg while retaining smooth 360° rotation and precise tilt control.
