Product Overview

The FHOPE floor-level pallet inverter is a stationary hydraulic machine for pallet exchange and bottom-pallet renewal, designed to operate directly at floor level without a pit or lifting platform. A forklift places the full load onto the machine's base platform, double clamping arms secure the load vertically, and a hydraulic 180° rotation brings the damaged or non-conforming bottom pallet to the top for replacement — all in a matter of minutes, with no load lifting above floor height.

Operating Sequence

How It Works

The machine completes a full pallet exchange in five steps, all performed at floor level:

Load in

A forklift places the entire palletized load onto the machine's base platform.
Clamp

Double clamping arms close over the load top and bottom, holding it vertically — the load is pressed between the upper and lower arms, not squeezed sideways. Clamping is fast, and rotation speed is adjustable to suit fragile or unstable loads.
Invert 180°

The hydraulic system rotates the clamped load a full 180°, so the original bottom pallet now faces upward.
Swap the pallet

The operator removes the old pallet and places a new one on the exposed load face.
Return and release

The machine rotates back to the upright position, the clamps open, and the forklift removes the load on its new pallet.

Because the entire cycle happens at floor level, no pit excavation, lifting table, or elevated platform is required. Guard netting encloses the danger zone throughout operation.

Technical & RFQ Data

Protection & Control

Safety & Operation

The representative configuration includes:

Electrical protection

Main power switch and overload / phase-failure protection.

Travel limits

Mechanical and electrical limit stops to prevent over-rotation and over-travel.

Controlled descent

Flow-control (limiting) valve governing descent speed for controlled movement.

Guard netting

Guard netting preventing entry into the clamp-and-rotation zone during operation.

Control voltage

AC24V control circuit voltage for operator safety.

Dual control mode

Fixed control cabinet plus remote control, so the operator can work at a recommended safety clearance from the machine during the cycle.

Operating Routine

One forklift operator performs load-in and load-out; the clamp–invert–return cycle is initiated from the remote or cabinet. Design working hours are 7,200 h/year under the declared test cycle, subject to normal maintenance per the manual. Noise levels comply with national requirements.

Warranty

A standard 1-year warranty on components applies; the exact term applicable to your order is confirmed in the quotation.

Engineering Input

Five RFQ Items

To engineer your machine, please provide:

Load type and behavior

Product description, packaging (cartons, bags, drums, bales), and whether the load is self-supporting and stretch-wrapped or strapped.

Pallet and load dimensions

Pallet width × length, total load height including goods, and the range of sizes in your application.

Top load weight

Heaviest palletized load, in kg.

Site conditions

Available floor space, power supply (voltage/frequency), floor load rating, forklift turning space, and door/dock clearance, plus whether forklift access is from one side or both.

Exchange objective and options

Bottom-pallet renewal, load transfer to slipsheets or shipping pallets, and any preferred options (load plates, custom clamp faces, control preferences).

Application Check

When It Fits

Use these criteria to decide whether this floor-level 180° pallet inverter is the right machine for your operation:

Criterion	Why It Matters
Bottom-pallet renewal is the goal.	The 180° full inversion exposes the bottom pallet for replacement — the standard fix for damaged, non-compliant, or customer-owned pallets on finished-goods loads.
Floor-level operation is required.	No pit, no lifting platform, no elevated work. The forklift approaches at ground level, which suits existing warehouses and dock areas where civil works are impractical.
Loads up to 2000 kg in the representative size range.	If your loads exceed this envelope, ask about engineered configurations.

Application Boundaries

Limits

The load must be self-supporting.

During inversion, the load is held by the double clamping arms and must hold its own shape when rotated 180°. Bagged, loose, or free-flowing loads that cannot stay consolidated are not suitable without supplementary containment (e.g., stretch wrap, strapping, or a load plate — evaluated per project).

Representative, not universal, specifications.

The 2000 kg rated load and the 1000–1300 mm pallet-length range describe the representative configuration on this page, not a blanket commitment for every unit built. Confirm your load dimensions and weight at RFQ stage.

Stationary installation.

The machine does not travel. Loads are brought to it by forklift.

Cycle time depends on load and operator.

Rotation speed is adjustable; total exchange time varies with load stability, pallet condition, and handling practice. We confirm cycle time per project after reviewing your load profile rather than quoting a fixed throughput figure.

This machine is stationary and forklift-served; it is not intended for embedding in a continuous conveyor line.

Selection Guide

How It Differs from Related Machines

95° pallet exchanger (changer family)

The 95° machine tilts the load backward so pallets can be swapped from underneath — a skid-style exchange. This machine performs a full 180° inversion, which suits loads that tolerate rotation but not tilting-and-sliding.

Heavy-load reclining pallet inverter

For heavy, wide pallets, the reclining-and-rotating type combines a 90° recline with 180° rotation. For standard loads within the representative range above, the direct floor-level 180° invert is the simpler choice.

Other stationary layouts

Where a different loading orientation or larger stationary frame is needed, our 180° stationary pallet inverter and stationary pallet inverter pages cover the wider stationary family.

Common Questions

FAQ

1. Does this machine need a pit or foundation?

No. It operates at floor level — the forklift places the load directly on the base platform. No pit excavation or elevated platform is required.

2. What load and pallet size can it handle?

The representative configuration handles 2000 kg, pallets 1000–1100 mm wide × 1000–1300 mm long, and load heights of 1100–2200 mm including goods. Other sizes are engineered per project.

3. Can it handle unstable loads?

The load must be self-supporting during the 180° rotation. Wrapped, strapped, or contained loads typically invert without issue; loose or free-flowing loads need supplementary containment, which we assess case by case.

4. How is this different from a 95° pallet exchanger?

A 95° exchanger tilts the load back and swaps the pallet from underneath (skid-style). This machine performs a full 180° inversion so the bottom pallet ends up on top for direct replacement. The right choice depends on whether your load tolerates tilting or requires full inversion.

5. How is the machine controlled?

Via a fixed control cabinet and a remote control, so the operator can initiate the cycle from a recommended safety clearance. Control circuit voltage is AC24V.

6. What safety features are included?

Overload and phase-failure protection, mechanical and electrical limit stops, a flow-control valve governing descent speed, main power switch, AC24V control circuit, and guard netting around the danger zone.

7. Do you build to custom dimensions?

Yes. The figures on this page are a representative configuration. Final machine dimensions, clamp opening, load capacity, and options are specified per project based on your RFQ data.
