RR TYPE 1, HEAVY DUTY PALLET INVERTER The “heavy duty” member of our Pallet Inverter family, the RR Type 1 is specifically designed to handle wide or heavy loads. All RR Type 1 machines are painted with two coats of zinc primer and a 2 pack epoxy acrylic top coat as standard. Each RR Type 1 pallet inverter model is built to customer requirements but usually with dual clamps and a load capacity of anything up to 10,000 Kgs. The particular style of pallet inversion makes the unit the obvious choice for loads such as steel or board over 2 metres in width. We always recommend automated controls with the RR Type 1. The touch of one button initiates a clamp, recline and rotate sequence. The machine would have a fixed location where it would be surrounded by fixed guards and photo-electric beams. The RR works on a totally different principle to the other styles of 180 degree inverter, the letters in its title standing for “recline and rotate”. This method of tipping the load through 90 degrees onto its back so that it is centralised over a turntable is an ideal one when handling very wide or heavy loads. It can be built with single or dual clamping tables to any width or depth. The jaw opening is also totally variable, though normally the loads it has to handle are not that high. Typical applications would be to invert stacks of steel through 180 degrees after stamping or surface treatment, to turn piles of laminated boards to meet customer requirements or to handle mould-manufactured concrete products. DD 1.25 PALLET INVERTER The DD1.25 is a versatile unit specifically designed to handle loads in the lower weight range. (If you have heavier loads, FS or FS DC products will be a better solution to your requirements). The table size determines that it is not suited to pallets over 1.2m wide or with overhung product. We would not normally build the DD1.25 with modified table dimensions or jaw opening. Ideal for handling finished goods (for example dairy products, pharmaceuticals, consumer goods and stacks of paper). > > Lightweight (1500kg) – easy to transport. > > Can be loaded by forklift truck, stacker, or at ground level by pallet truck via a 1.5m long ramp. > > Compact size. Perfect for working in confined areas or difficult to access locations. > > Simple push button controls with option of semi or fully automatic controls. > > Various guarding options. > > Best suited to lightweight (1250kg maximum), low volume applications. Application: > > Load transfer from wood to plastic or other hygienic pallet. > > Switching outgoing loads to shipping or expendable skids. > > Transferring incoming goods to high quality in-house pallets.
