In an increasingly demanding and fast-paced construction sector, every minute counts. The pressure to optimise reduced spaces, increase productivity and reinforce on-site safety is now undeniable.
Trends such as modular and prefabricated construction, urban rehabilitation in dense city centres, and the growing need for more sustainable solutions are deeply transforming the sector. In this context, mini cranes, glass-installation robots and lifting vacuum systems are gaining prominence, enabling teams to tackle complex challenges with speed, efficiency and reliability.
Almovi has been providing these solutions across various projects, where control and precision have become decisive to achieving success.
Modular and Prefabricated Construction
Modular and prefabricated housing requires compact, versatile and safe lifting solutions. Spider cranes have proven indispensable in this segment: they operate in tight spaces, manoeuvre on uneven terrain and access locations unreachable by traditional cranes.
Recently, they were used in the assembly of residential modules, both indoors and outdoors, significantly reducing construction deadlines. Their electric or hybrid operation ensures quiet, emission-free work, ideal for residential environments.
Structural Stability Projects
In controlled demolition and structural reinforcement work—especially in dense urban areas—safety is critical. In these scenarios, mini cranes were used to remove stone, concrete blocks, beams and other elements in a controlled manner, reducing risks for workers and adjacent structures.
The mobility of this equipment, even in confined areas, was crucial to carrying out interventions in the middle of the city without compromising safety.
Glass Installation, Façades and Solar Panels
In glass façade projects, a specialised glazing contractor used both the glass-installation robot and lifting vacuum systems. This combination allowed the handling of large panels with millimetric precision, at challenging angles and heights.
The result was increased safety when handling fragile materials and a significant reduction in installation time.
Mini cranes can also be used together with vacuum lifters. They are essential for installing cladding panels of different shapes, dimensions and weights. Vacuum systems are the ideal choice for handling diverse materials—from glass to stone or solar panels—both indoors and outdoors, increasing versatility on site.
Almovi provides a service— it doesn’t just supply equipment. This service must be an indispensable added value in the client’s project.
More Than Equipment — Complete Solutions
From vacuum lifters to glass-handling robots and high-capacity cranes, lifting solutions have already proven to be strategic allies in urban construction. The benefits are clear:
- Compact and versatile: Ideal for locations with limited access.
- High precision: Move heavy loads with extreme accuracy.
- Safe and sustainable: Reduce risks on site and environmental impact.
- Cost optimization: Increase operational efficiency and shorten project timelines.
By choosing rental solutions, construction companies gain access to cutting-edge technology with guaranteed maintenance and specialised technical support—crucial factors in highly demanding projects. Almovi’s experienced team focuses on the solution: they assess the project and recommend the most suitable equipment, with or without an operator.
A Vision for the Future
With the growing focus on modular construction, the strengthening of urban rehabilitation, and the energy transition—where glass and solar panels play a key role—compact, high-precision lifting equipment is becoming essential.
More than meeting current needs, these solutions anticipate the future of construction: a sector that is more agile, safe, sustainable and competitive.
