A panel joiner system includes 2 sets of suction cups couple together through a linear guide to allow the sets of suction cups to move toward each other for joining panels along the edges. A movement mechanism is also coupled to the suction cups to convert a rotational movement to a linear movement of the suction cups. A surface alignment module is coupled to the linear guide to move between the suction cups for aligning the top surface of the panels. Compressible materials or ball bearings can be disposed between the section cups and the linear guide to allow the panel joiner to adjust the panel positions for joining.
