Apex Steel talks about using WPG Vacuum Lifters to install Insulated Metal Panels (IMP's). 

Wood’s Powr-Grip’s MTCL Cladding Lifter makes flipping 500-pound (225 kg) roof panels a job for just two workers! See how WPG vacuum lifters can save you time and expense, increase productivity and reduce injuries on the jobsite.

Insulated Metal Panels (IMPs) are lightweight composite exterior wall and roof panels with metal skins and an insulating foam core. These panels have superior insulating properties, and their outstanding spanning capabilities and one-pass installation makes them quick to install, saving costs compared to other wall assemblies. IMPs are available in a wide variety of colors, widths, profiles and finishes, enabling virtually any aesthetic desired for walls and roofs.

This cladding lifter is the perfect solution for heavier, fire-rated insulated metal panels. It features tool-free reconfiguration for vertical or horizontal panel projects, an option for handling roof panels up to 63 feet (19 meters) long, and pad arms and pad mounts that adjust to match various panel sizes and profiles.
