Please review and select additional options for the IMS Tilter below. Note: shipping costs are not included.

The IMS Tri Mechanical Floor Level Container Tilter is designed to tilt containers of material as they are being emptied. The system is designed to rotate the container to a maximum of 45° from horizontal. The operator manually loads the container into the system, at floor level, using a fork lift truck or pallet- jack. The system is designed to begin to rise automatically when the remaining weight in the container reaches approx. 900 lbs. All the remaining material is directed into one corner resulting in complete product removal with minimal operator involvement. During the tilting operation, IMS’ optional patented Safety Stop keeps your operators free from harm by eliminating the potential for the cradle to unexpectedly lower due to a pneumatic system failure.

  • Capacity and Dimensions: IMS’ pneumatic tilt table is designed to support the full weight of the container up to a maximum of 2,500 pounds. The system has a maximum lifting capacity of 1,500 lbs., which is factory preset at approx. 900 pounds to avoid material spillage, with a total rotation of 45°. 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.
  • Framework: The system is constructed of formed 7ga steel. The main framework includes all necessary mounting brackets for the standard and optional devices. The pivot carriage includes an adjustable vacuum pick-up wand holder.       The holder is designed with a 3-1/2” id and features 12” of adjustment to accommodate various container heights.
  • Load Design: The container is loaded, at floor level, using a pallet jack or fork lift truck into the 44” w x 44” d bucket of the tilt table. The standard pivot carriage is designed to accommodate containers up to 48” square x approx. 60” tall.
  • Welding and Finish Specifications: The equipment is constructed of carbon steel stitch welded (continuous where required for strength) and ground to remove irregularities.       The equipment will be sandblasted (or solvent cleaned), primed and painted with IMS Metallic Blue Industrial Enamel.
  • Pneumatic Control System: The system will include a complete pneumatic control system for all devices. The system will be provided with a manual 3-position air valve. The hand valve is mounted to the pivot carriage of the system and includes all necessary filter regulators, and a single supply connection.

Any molding operation that is feeding its molding machines, mixers or blenders from gaylords with pneumatic pick-up tubes needs to have this floor level tilter. It will allow each gaylord to be completely drained without risk of running dry, causing bad mixes or empty hoppers. Power system: Air Base footprint: 71″ x 52″ Space required: 71″ x 80″ Capacity: 2500 lbs Model: 29-950
