NBE Tilt Tables automatically tilt containers up to 2,500 lbs. Floor level tilters - an NBE original - can accommodate pallet jack, hand truck, and forklift loading of bulk containers. As they are being emptied, gaylords and other container styles are gradually tilted up to a maximum of 45°. Thus, all the material is directed into one corner resulting in complete product removal with minimal operator involvement.
Features And Options
Load Design: The container is loaded, at floor level, into the 44” w x 44”d pivot cradle of the tilter. The standard pivot cradle is designed to accommodate containers up to 52” square x approx. 60” tall, but can be modified to accept other container sizes. Please provide NBE with your container dimensions to assure compatibility with the standard pivot cradle design.
Pneumatic System: The system will include a complete pneumatic control system for all devices. The system will be provided with a manual 3-position air control valve. The hand control valve is mounted to the pivot cradle of the system and includes all necessary filter regulators, lockouts, and components to provide a single supply connection.
Framework: The tilter is constructed of formed 7ga steel. The main framework includes all necessary mounting brackets for the standard and optional devices. The pivot cradle includes an adjustable vacuum pick-up wand holder. The holder is designed with a 3-1/2” I.D. and features 12” of adjustment to accommodate various container heights.
Capacity and Dimensions: The tilter is designed to support the full weight of the container up to a maximum of 3,000 pounds. The system has a maximum lifting capacity of 1,500 lbs. which is factory preset at 900 pounds to avoid unintended material spillage. The footprint of the system is approx. 71” wide x 52” deep in the load position and 72” wide x 80” deep when in the maximum tilt position.
Welding and Finish Specifications: The equipment is constructed of welded carbon steel that is ground to remove irregularities. The equipment will be sandblasted or solvent cleaned, primed and finished with NBE Chapelstone Beige enamel.
Full Tilt Indicator Light: Upgrade the system to include a red beacon that is activated when the tilter reaches its full tilt position. The red light warns the operator when the container is near empty.
Gaylord Cover: Upgrade the system to include a fabric gaylord cover. The cover is installed over the open gaylord to prevent foreign debris from falling into the exposed material in the container. The cover includes an opening for the insertion of the vacuum pick-up wand, breathable filter panel and 2-vinyl windows for quick visual level checks.
Vibration: Upgrade the system to include an electric or pneumatic vibrator kit. Vibration induces non-free flowing material to flow toward the vacuum wand located at the low corner of the tilter.
Patented Safety Stop: Upgrade the base Floor Level Tilter by including NBE’s patented pneumatic safety stop. The safety stop is designed to prevent the pivot cradle from dropping in the event of a pneumatic system failure. For safety reasons, NBE highly recommends the addition of this option.
