Hydraulic Upender

• Heavy-duty industrial upender / tilt machine, designed for routine material reorientation in fabrication, machining, or assembly.
• Steel structural frame, mechanical/hydraulic pivot and locking, with safety stops.
• Approximate tilt range: ~0°-90° (check machine limits for your specific unit).
• Control interface likely via pendant, switch station, or hydraulic lever (confirm actual control equipment).
• Anchorable to floor or mounting surface, designed for fixed installation.
• Load capacity: (insert measured or nameplate capacity) — capable of lifting and tilting large workpieces, rolls, pallets, crates, etc.

Description

This industrial upender is built to reliably and safely rotate heavy loads from horizontal to vertical orientation. It’s ideal for factories, welding shops, heavy fabrication environments, or anywhere large, awkward parts must be repositioned for downstream processing. This unit was constructed for rugged service, with solid pivot bearings, robust hydraulic or mechanical drive, and safety mechanisms that ensure operator protection during use.

What It Does

This machine allows you to tip or flip large, heavy objects in a controlled manner — no manual handling or unsafe lifting required. Whether you need to reposition parts for machining, loading, molding, or painting, the upender gives safe access to all sides of the workpiece.

Capabilities

• Enables 0°–90° (or more, depending on design) tilting of heavy loads, reducing manual labor risks and improving throughput.
• Precisely secures the workpiece in the rotated position for safe processing or transport.
• Maintains consistent tilting speed and stabilization via hydraulic/mechanical control, reducing impact or damage to fragile items.

Core Functions

• Load stabilization and secure pivoting during tilt.
• Controlled motion (smooth raising and lowering) to prevent load shifts, impacts, or safety hazards.
• Safety locking, limit stops, and travel control to prevent over-tilt or uncontrolled movement.
• Adaptable mounting: anchorable to floor or integrate with conveyors, cranes, or pallet systems.

Design Features & Benefits

• Built for heavy industrial duty: structural steel frame and welded reinforcements offer long service life and high load tolerance.
• Mechanical/hydraulic actuation provides smooth, reliable, repeatable motion under load.
• Safety-oriented design: locks, limit switches, stops, and optional guarding reduce the risk of accidents.
• Flexible design: can be used standalone or integrated into automated production lines, conveyors, or material handling systems.

Applications & Industries

• Metal fabrication (welding, press work, machining) where parts must be re-oriented.
• Coil, roll, mold, die, casting, and pallet handling in steel, automotive, aerospace, and heavy machinery industries.
• Foundries, tooling shops, and manufacturing plants needing safe, efficient load tip/reorientation.
• Warehouses and shipping where large crates, containers, or modules require precise repositioning.

Machine Overview & Summary

This industrial upender (or tilt machine) provides a robust, efficient, and safe solution for handling large, heavy loads in industrial environments. Designed to withstand continuous use, it simplifies otherwise dangerous manual operations by offering controlled, repeatable tilt and secure locking. Whether integrated into production lines or used standalone, this machine helps improve operator safety, reduce processing times, and increase throughput in demanding manufacturing, fabrication, or materials-handling applications

Tilt Lock Manual Tip Lift unit

• Maximum capacity: 2,000 lb roll handling
• Core compatibility: accommodates various core diameters (probe interchangeable via quick-release pin)
• Tilt range: ~0° (horizontal) to ~90° (vertical)
• Release mechanism: manual quick-release pin (optional pneumatic tooth release)
• Safety/interlock: requires roll weight supported by stationary surface before disengagement
• Construction: heavy-duty steel frame and probe assembly (treated/painted for industrial use)
• Condition: pre-owned, in good working order

Description

This is a Tilt Lock Manual Tip Lift unit, designed to facilitate safe, efficient roll handling in industrial settings. It enables the operator to tilt a roll from horizontal to vertical orientation for transport or processing. While the manual version does not “lock” in the horizontal orientation, it is simple, rugged, and effective for many roll handling tasks.

What It Does

• Inserts a probe into a roll core and uses mechanical teeth to grip the roll
• Lifts the roll (up to 2,000 lb)
• Tilts the roll from horizontal to vertical (typically ~90°)
• Enables vertical transport of rolls once tipped
• Permits quick removal of the roll by retracting the probe (after lowering and supporting)

Capabilities

• Handles heavy rolls (up to 2,000 lb)
• Works with multiple core sizes via exchangeable probes
• Manual operation offers reliability without dependence on power (electric or pneumatic)
• Optional pneumatic tooth release for easier disengagement
• Suitable for repeated tilt/lift cycles in production or handling lines

Core Functions

• Grip & support: probe with mechanical teeth penetrates the roll core to securely grip the roll
• Lift: manual force (or assist) raises the roll off its resting surface
• Tilt: mechanism pivots the roll from horizontal to vertical orientation
• Disengage: retract the probe’s teeth when roll weight is supported by a surface
• Probe change: quick-release pin allows swapping probes to match different core diameters

Design Features & Benefits

• Rugged steel frame and components built for industrial use
• Quick-release pin simplifies changing probes for different cores
• Optional pneumatic tooth release available to ease manual retraction
• Simple, low-maintenance design (no motors or pneumatics unless optionally added)
• Safe operation: the roll must be supported before probe release, reducing risk of accidental drop
• Clear tilt mechanism allows smooth transition between horizontal and vertical states

Applications & Industries

• Converting, printing, packaging operations
• Paper, film, foil, or textile roll handling
• Roll loading/unloading in manufacturing lines
• Warehousing and material handling of cylindrical goods
• Any facility where rolls must be tilted and then transported in vertical orientation

Machine Overview & Summary

The Tilt Lock Manual Tip Lift – 2,000 lb Capacity is a robust roll handling accessory designed to simplify tilting and transporting cylindrical rolls. By using an interchangeable probe with teeth, it securely grips rolls, lifts them, and tilts them upright so they can be moved vertically. While the manual version does not lock in the horizontal position, it excels in durability, simplicity, and adaptability. With optional enhancements (e.g. pneumatic tooth release), it becomes an even more operator-friendly solution. This unit is ideally suited for converting, printing, packaging, and other industrial roll handling contexts where safety, flexibility, and reliability are key
