Pannkoke Flachglastechnik GmbH

About us
We are a manufacturer of vacuum lifting devices, flat glass cutting machines, glass forklift and glazier tools with a great know-how and a lot of experience.

The company has its origins in the founding of Wilhelm Pannkoke 1900 in Berlin. In 1956, Karl Pannkoke introduced vacuum technology for transport tasks in glass technology. Today, in addition to many standard components, we also produce many special solutions, not only for the glass sector.

Using our technology, the glass panes for the Maxi triple glazed pane of 18 x 3 m, which was exhibited at glastec 2010, were moved. Large-format glass panes are not something new for us, as early as 1994, a 12 x 3 m shop window was glazed with a device from our house in Tokyo under great public interest and we have a large glassworks in south-east Asia with corresponding vacuum lifting equipment to panning equipped such glass panes. Our vacuum lifters also deliver what they promise.

In addition to vacuum technology, flat glass cutting machines from the manual cutting table to the CNC cutting table are our main product range, but we also produce roll and tilt tables for the non-glass sector. Therefore, there are a lot of applications where we do not directly act as a supplier but are the supplier to the system supplier. Special solutions such as tilting table for the production of cast resin panes also belong to air cushion transport tables in the solar production to our extensive product range.

Even glass forklift to the latest safety regulations are available from us without subtle interpretive games, but really considered safety. This allows glass packages of up to 7500 kg to be moved.

But also some Glaser tools from the Wilhelminian era are still manufactured here.
