Custom Engineering for Precision and Safety

To overcome these challenges, our engineering team developed a specialized configuration of the 90-degree hydraulic tilter:

• Integrated 160° V-Groove Deck: To eliminate slippage, we integrated a 200mm wide V-groove across the 1600mm platform. This creates a mechanical “cradle” that self-centers the roll, ensuring zero lateral movement during the 90-degree transition.

• Pit-Mounted Flush Installation: The entire system was designed for pit mounting. This allows the platform to sit flush with the Italian facility’s floor at its lowest point, enabling seamless AGV and pallet jack access without ramps.

• Synchronized 4-Cylinder Hydraulic Logic: To handle the bidirectional “tilt-return” cycle, we utilized a four-cylinder configuration (

  $\varphi$

  80-60). This provides redundant lifting force and ensures smooth motion, even when the roll’s center of mass is modified during the partitioning phase.

• Pedestal-Mounted Control with Remote Tether: The control unit is mounted on a fixed base with a 5-meter tethered cable, keeping operators at a safe distance from the 1.7-ton load.
