Upenders/Tilters
Description
Upenders, or Tilters, are widely used worldwide, providing modern industries with enhanced productivity and exceptional safety during the 90°, 180°, and 360° tilting of large, heavy materials. Overhead cranes and forklifts are commonly employed by companies requiring high safety and productivity levels to upend heavy loads.
As the metalworking industry evolves rapidly, our flat deck mold upender offers innovative solutions for the industrial handling of molds, tooling, and dies. This dedicated tilter machine allows operators to unload overhead cranes safely, avoiding the need to hold loads while tilting. This design minimizes dangerous maneuvers and enhances operator safety.
Morello supplies flat deck upenders for molds, dies, coils, castings, and other materials across various manufacturing sectors worldwide. Our upenders can be customized to meet specific requirements, including payload capacity, loading deck size, covers, tilting speed, and other options, developed collaboratively with our clients. Morello emphasizes the design of heavy load solutions, with capacities ranging from 10 tonnes to over 200 tonnes.
Morello’s upenders can be customized according to special needs: payload, loading deck size and covers, tilting speed and other options can be studied together with the client. Morello pays particular attention to design of heavy load solutions with high capacity from 10 tonnes to over 200 tonnes.
