Tilting cylindrical rolls and heavy metal coils between horizontal processing and vertical palletized storage carries serious risks of roll slippage. This non-standard custom heavy-duty 5-ton mechanical coil upender incorporates an integrated V-groove deck with welded ratchet strap tighteners and a self-locking brake motor drive.
V-Bed Roll Stabilization: Custom V-groove platform deck combined with heavy-duty ratchet strap winches prevent roll movement.
1.25x Safety Factor Rating: Engineered with J160x80x5 structural steel tubing and 16A-2 double drive chains.
Zero-Drift Self-Locking Brake: Electric brake motor guarantees instant mechanical locking at any angle without creep.

Engineered to withstand heavy 5000kg cylindrical coils and paper rolls with a 1.25-times structural safety factor, the upender frame is fabricated from J160805 rectangular tubing and 4mm steel deck plating. Mechanical 90-degree tilting is powered by a >=1.5kW 380V 60Hz electric motor transmitting torque via 16A-2 double-strand heavy-duty chains. The L-shaped dual platforms (20001300mm + 13002000mm) feature an integrated center V-groove, flanked by heavy-duty ratchet strap winches welded along both side edges to securely bind rolls during motion. Edges feature high-visibility yellow and black hazard warning striping over blue industrial baking enamel. Equipment structural safety aligns with OSHA machine guarding standards.
Built for export reliability and easy site integration, all drive sprockets, chain paths, and pivot points are fitted with grease nipples for quick periodic maintenance. Delixi electrical components inside the IP-rated enclosure feature clear wire numbering, phase-loss relays, and short-circuit protection. Each unit includes export wooden crate packing, complete operation manuals, certificates of conformity, factory test videos, and a 12-month mechanical warranty.
Operation is controlled via an external wired push-button operator box featuring an integrated emergency stop button. Operators place cylindrical rolls directly onto the V-groove platform, tighten the side ratchet straps, and execute 90-degree upending with total confidence. Smooth mechanical drive eliminates hydraulic oil leak risks, making it ideal for clean processing environments as shown in Coil & Roll Tilters .
Upender safety complies with international ANSI machine compliance standards .
Mechanical Self-Locking Brake: Motor electro-mechanical brake holds 5000kg loads firmly at any angle without creep or back-sliding.
Welded Ratchet Strap Winches: Heavy-duty tension tighteners secure round coils against roll displacement during 90-degree motion.
Electrical Safety Circuitry: Delixi control box incorporates phase-loss, earth leakage, overload, and short-circuit breakers.
Grounding Protection Terminal: Dedicated ground terminal protects operators against stray voltage and static buildup.
Emergency Stop Isolation: Instant-response emergency stop button on the control box cuts power to the drive circuit immediately.
Steel & Aluminum Coil 90° Tilting: Tilting heavy metal coils from horizontal Eye-to-Wall to vertical Eye-to-Sky palletizing stances.
Paper & Packaging Film Roll Handling: Re-orienting jumbo paper rolls and plastic film reels for printing line loading.
Copper Strip & Wire Coil Processing: Securely upending non-ferrous metal coils using V-grooves and ratchet tighteners.
Cylindrical Rubber & Fabric Roll Upending: Safely handling large industrial rubber rolls and textile fabric reels without slippage.
Export Packaging Material Handling: Flipping heavy coils in packaging facilities prior to wooden crate sealing, as featured in Electric & Hydraulic Tilters .
Heavy Cable Drum & Spool Tilting: Re-positioning heavy electrical wire spools and cable reels for payoff unwinding.
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.
