Handling automotive glass can be physically demanding. Awkward postures, heavy lifting and the need to carefully position large glass components can place unnecessary strain on operators. That’s where Movomech’s automotive glass handling solution provides the answer – making automotive glass handling safer, easier and more efficient.
Automotive Glass Handling
Movomech’s AGR System
The AGR (Automotive Glass Repair) system has been developed in collaboration with automotive glass fitters. By combining a pneumatic glass handling tool with a chain hoist, mounted on a Mechrail overhead crane system or jib crane.
AGR makes it easier for operators to handle and position windscreens safely and accurately. The result: A more practical, comfortable and controlled working environment, helping reduce physical strain associated with automotive glass installation.

Safe, Ergonomic Automotive Glass Handling with Movomech’s AGR
Simmatic are proud to be the Official Movomech AB partner in Great Britain. Supplying, installing and servicing the complete range of Movomech material handling solutions. We’re putting the spotlight on the Automotive Glass Repair (AGR) system – a safe, ergonomic and efficient solution designed specifically for automotive glass handling and windscreen replacement.
One-Person Windscreen Replacement
A key advantage of the Movomech AGR system is its ability to turn windscreen replacement into a one-person operation.
Instead of requiring two fitters to safely lift and position a windscreen, the AGR handling tool supports the glass throughout the process. Thus, helping businesses improve workplace efficiency and make better use of their skilled workforce.
By reducing the need for manual lifting and awkward handling, AGR can also help minimise the risk of workplace injuries and associated downtime.
Easy, Flexible Glass Handling
Movomech’s AGR tool isn’t just limited to windscreens and automotive glass. Its versatile design makes it suitable for handling a range of flat or relatively smooth components, including:
- Bonnet panels
- Vehicle body panels
- Glass panes
- Other large, flat components
An optional accessory stand (image below) also makes it simple to rotate a windscreen for cleaning or preparation while remaining securely held by the gripping tool.
