Load rotators and upenders

This is the "base" Posi-Turner® model, and the best fit for loads with a small rotational dimension and loads that are more uniform in nature.

• ·Fixed Posi-Turner® will rotate load during lift
• ·Custom sizes are available
• ·Push button pendant control standard

Leveler adjusts the center of gravity under the hook to balance the load with the push of a button. Standard bail adjustment is 6" each side of center. Optional 12" adjustment each side of center also available.

• ·Leveler Posi-Turner® will rotate load and adjusts to the center of gravity during lift
• ·Custom sizes are available
• ·Push-button pendent control standard
• ·Uses just one hook; bail moves to
• ·find the load's center of gravity.
• ·Standard bail adjustment 6" each side of center, with optional 12" adjustment each side of center available

Optional Auto-Leveler™ Single Bail Posi-Turner® Load Rotator The Auto-Leveler option makes things easier and safer for the operator by adjusting to a changing location of the center of gravity. Takes the guesswork out of the operator's hands.

• ·Can be added to your Posi-Turner® new build or even field-mounted to an existing unit
• ·Not an option for every lifting situation
• ·Automatically stops rotation when it senses that the load is out of level
• ·Then adjusts the bail to find the center of gravity, within 2° of level, before starting up again
• ·Reduces sling walk
• ·Eliminates human error which increases safety for both the load and operator

Minimum Profile Posi-Turner® Load Rotator Standard Posi-Turners often feature a 28-60" headroom, but not every manufacturing facility has that available. With a scant 9" headroom for the 1/2- and 1-ton sizes, and a 13.5" headroom in the 2-ton size, the Minimum Profile design is great for locations where space is an issue.

• ·Minimum Profile Posi-Turner® only available in a double-bail design — can be built with a single leveling center bail
• ·Used by boat manufacturers and semi truck manufacturers across the U.S.

Independent Drive Posi-Turner® Load Rotator Consists of two powered-drive units suspended from two cranes/hoists, with pocketed sheave driving special coil link chain or synthetic slings that rotate large heavy, bulky items for assembly, welding positioning, and inspection. Drive units can either be operated independently or together, through an operator pendant(s), or remote control.

• ·Two powered drive units for precise control
• ·Chain slings / web slings have disconnect hardware allowing them to be positioned underneath the load
• ·Web slings protect loads from damage
• ·Over travel limit switches prevent chain disconnect hardware from running over chain sprocket
• ·Standard models include remote control with backup pendants
• ·Use for rotating heavy weldments that won't be damaged by chain

The ideal system for inverting truck/bus chassis after suspension installation. Custom designed fixtures clamp to chassis “C-Rails” and contain center of gravity within the turning radius, thus creating a smooth transition.

• ·Independent drives allow fixtures to be position to the desired location on the chassis
• ·Each unit is custom-built to your specifications
• ·Units have been produced to rotate automotive frames, truck frames, rail cars, and more
• ·Complies with ASME standards

Material handling system suspends and rotates objects 360° or more with controlled rotation

• ·Complete material handling system
• ·Heavy-duty non-slip drum surface
• ·Heavy-duty worm gear reducer with chain and sprocket final drive
• ·Electric brake motor
• ·Bolted assembly to head beam
• ·Push button pendant control

The Posi-Turner® can utilize several types and configurations of slings to suit every application. Certain parameters should be considered in the sling type selection such as: heat, sharp edges, welding applications, environment, etc. In most cases, a disconnect link is used so that one end of the sling can be inserted under a load.
