Features

180 Degree Industrial Coil Upender Engineering Features

ASTM A572 Gr. 50 Rotation Cradle Structure

CNC plate rolling and full-penetration submerged arc welds form the C-frame cradle from ASTM A572 Grade 50 high-strength low-alloy steel. This heavy-plate box girder resists dynamic torsional deflection under 6000 kg turning moments. Four machined alloy steel trunnion rollers support the annular ring to disperse radial reactions into the floor anchor base. Certified EN 10204 3.1 inspection documentation confirms plate yield strength above 345 MPa.

Hydraulic Clamping Platen With Chrome Guide Columns

Precision cylindrical grinding and induction hard chrome plating protect the Ø70 mm guide columns from surface galling during vertical clamping. Dual synchronized hydraulic cylinders actuate the 2000 × 2000 mm top platen between an 830 mm daylight opening and a 130 mm minimum package thickness. Flange-mounted counterbalance valves lock circuit pressure at 12 MPa, preventing coil package drift through the 180-degree rotational arc.

Four-Strand Drive Roller Chain Transmission System

High-frequency induction hardening on ring gear teeth stops tooth profile deformation and prevents chain tooth skipping under peak inversion loads. A 4.0 kW helical-bevel gearmotor directs power through a 1:126 ratio industrial gearbox to drive the heavy-series ANSI four-strand roller chain. The powertrain maintains a 62-second cycle rotation time while delivering mechanical self-locking through the vertical center-of-gravity transition.

Industrial Control Cabinet With Radio Remote Receiver

Terminal barrier isolation and phase-monitoring relays protect switchgear from phase reversal and high-voltage electrical arcing inside the control cabinet. The architecture pairs an IP54 industrial operator console with a handheld industrial radio transmitter. Dual mechanical limit switches enforce hard cutoffs at 0-degree and 180-degree home stations, meeting industrial electrical guidelines under NFPA 79 and safety system rules per ANSI B11.19.

Application scenarios

180 Degree Industrial Coil Upender Work Environments

Cold Rolled Strip Coil Packaging Line

Cold rolling facilities execute 180-degree turnovers to swap internal transport skids for export wooden pallets beneath eye-to-sky slit rolls. This orientation exchange protects strip edges without altering the vertical eye axis. The machine accommodates coil outside diameters from 1200 to 1800 mm with an allowable center-of-gravity offset of 100 mm. Floor foundations require flat reinforced concrete engineered for an 11-ton gross operating load (5.0-ton machine tare plus 6.0-ton dynamic coil mass). Built to operate inside plant temperatures between -10°C and +45°C.

Automotive Stamping Plant Sheet Metal Staging Bay

Automotive press shops invert inbound master slit coils from wooden delivery skids onto clean composite press-feed pallets ahead of blanking operations. The hydraulic clamping platen secures strip widths between 130 and 830 mm through continuous multi-shift production schedules. Base anchoring mandates M24 chemical stud anchors embedded into 20 MPa (minimum 200 mm depth) reinforced concrete slabs, resisting dynamic tipping moments across ambient thermal bounds of 0°C to +50°C.

GRADIN OEM/ODM CUSTOMIZATION & DELIVERY POLICY

For this heavy-duty series, we can engineer load capacities up to [300] tons, with platform dimensions and lifting heights customized to your operational envelope. Requirements exceeding our standard engineering matrix will undergo a Finite Element Analysis (FEA) by our engineering team to ensure structural viability before proposing a solution.

To initiate the engineering proposal, please provide the following baseline data:

  • Rated Load Capacity

  • Maximum Lifting Height & Closed Height

  • Platform Dimensions (L x W)

  • Duty Cycle (e.g., operational cycles per hour/day)

  • Environmental Conditions (e.g., indoor/outdoor, washdown, explosion-proof)

  • Pit depth or overhead clearance constraints

Yes. The control systems can be equipped with standard communication protocols (e.g., Profinet, Modbus, Ethernet/IP) utilizing [Siemens / Allen-Bradley / Omron] PLCs. This ensures seamless I/O signal synchronization with upstream/downstream conveyors, AGV/AMR units, and your central control room.

Every custom unit undergoes a mandatory Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) prior to dispatch. This includes continuous operational testing at 100% rated load, static overload testing at [120% / 125%] capacity, and the physical triggering of all mechanical anti-fall and hydraulic safety interlocks. FAT documentation and video proof are included in your engineering package.

Upon final approval of the General Arrangement (GA) drawings, the manufacturing lead time is typically 4 to 8 weeks. Oversized structural components are engineered with a modular design to fit into standard shipping containers (20FT/40HQ). On-site assembly utilizes pre-engineered bolted flange connections and heavy-duty aviation plugs, strictly eliminating the need for field welding.

We provide a standard [12/24]-month warranty covering the structural frame and primary hydraulic/electrical components. To minimize operational downtime, a comprehensive set of standard consumables (e.g., cylinder seal kits, travel switches, relays) is shipped alongside your equipment. During the warranty period, replacement parts for non-human-induced failures are dispatched via priority air freight (DHL/FedEx) within 48 hours.

Beyond the warranty, we guarantee lifetime engineering support. Your custom equipment's CAD drawings, electrical schematics, and BOM (Bill of Materials) are permanently archived in our system. This ensures you receive uninterrupted remote troubleshooting, maintenance guidance, and exact spare parts matching for the entire lifecycle of the equipment.
