Executive summary A tote tipper lifts a box or tote and turns it over, so the contents pour out at height without anyone lifting the load by hand. Ours lifts the box on a chain drive in a grey frame and tips it, powered by a compact hydraulic unit at its side. Output follows from the lift, tip and return times, set per project to your boxes and discharge height.

Was das Video zeigt
The clip opens on a close view of the lifting chains and sprockets, with the hydraulic cylinder between them. The caption names it a lift and turnover machine. The camera then pulls back to the whole unit on a green factory floor.
The grey frame carries the box cradle on its front. A blue hydraulic power unit stands at its side. In the following shots the cradle is lifted and turned, the move a full box makes to empty its contents.
How the tote tipper works
| Schritt | Was ist loss |
|---|---|
| Laden Sie | The box or tote is set in the cradle at floor level |
| Lift | The cylinder drives the chains, raising the cradle up the frame |
| Tipp | At the top the cradle turns over and the box empties |
| Return | The cradle turns back and lowers to the floor |
The cradle holds the box as it turns over, so the box stays in place while its contents pour out. The chain drive multiplies the cylinder stroke, so the box rises much further than the cylinder moves. The hydraulic unit holds the load steady at any point in the lift.
Estimating the cycle
Illustrative cycle for one box:
| Schritt | Zeit (beispielhaft) |
|---|---|
| Lift | 10 s |
| Tipp | 5 s |
| Hold to empty | 10 s |
| Return and lower | 15 s |
| Gesamtbetrag pro Karton | 40 s |
| Boxes per hour, 3,600 ÷ 40 | über 90 |
Sticky or packed contents need a longer hold. Add the time to bring each box to the cradle and take it away.
Matching the tipper to the box
| Einblick in das | Warum es wichtig ist |
|---|---|
| Größe und Form der Schachtel | The cradle is built to hold it |
| Gesamtgewicht der Box | Sets the cylinder and frame |
| Entladehöhe | Sets how far the box must rise |
| Where it pours | A hopper, conveyor or machine inlet below the tip point |
Measure the full box weight, not the empty one, and tell us what the box pours into.
Kontrollen und Sicherheit
The cradle, chains and box move during the cycle. Keep people clear of the lift path and the area below the tip point while it runs.
Die anzuwendenden Normen hängen vom Zielmarkt ab. Für CE-Märkte legt ISO 12100 die Risikobewertungsmethode fest und EN 415-10 die allgemeinen Anforderungen an Verpackungsmaschinen.
Selection checklist for a tote tipper
- Box or tote size and full weight.
- Discharge height and what it pours into.
- Kisten pro Stunde.
- Contents: loose, sticky or packed.
- Grundfläche.
- Stromversorgung vor Ort.
Häufig gestellte Fragen zur Technik
Q: What does a tote tipper do? A: It lifts a box or tote and turns it over, so the contents pour out at height.
Q: Why a chain lift? A: The chains multiply the cylinder stroke, so the box rises further than the cylinder moves.
Q: How many boxes per hour? A: 3,600 divided by the cycle time. Our 40 s machine cycle gives about 90, before the time to bring each box in and take it away.
Q: How high can it lift? A: That is set per project from the height your hopper or machine inlet needs.
Q: What powers it? A: A hydraulic power unit beside the frame.
Nächster Schritt
We plan your tote tipper in three steps:
