The orange V-cradle tilts through 90 degrees to turn a coil from eye-horizontal to eye-vertical or back, and the black base slews the whole tilter through 180 degrees. That way the coil is loaded from one side and leaves facing the next conveyor or the crane, without a second handling move.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"940\" height=\"535\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/j0X0U6bwrVs\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer;

real output depends on coil handling and layout.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Can the slew angle be other than 180 degrees?\nA: Yes, we set it to suit the layout.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Is the drive hydraulic?\nA: We supply hydraulic or electric drive, per plant.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Which standards apply?\nA: For CE markets, ISO 12100 and EN 415-10.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"next-step\">Next step<\/h2>\n<p>We match a coil tilter with rotary base in three steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Submit your layout drawing<\/strong> with coil weights and sizes, tilt direction and layout, to <strong>info@fhopepack.com<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Receive a proposal within 48 hours<\/strong> with the machine data and layout.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Book a site survey<\/strong> so we confirm the floor and crane layout.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 id=\"related-reading\">Related reading<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/the-90-degree-coil-upender-with-rotary-base\/\">90-Degree Coil Upender with Rotary Base<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/hydraulic-coil-tilter-the-smart-fix-for-costly-coil-handling\/\">Hydraulic Coil Tilter for 90\u00b0 Turning<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/steel-coil-upender-for-coil-unloading-with-transfer-trolley\/\">Coil Upender with Transfer Trolley<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/Mechanical\/Coil-Upender-Tilter.html\">Coil upender and tilter range<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"sources\">Sources<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Machine content: FHOPE engineering team, 2026-10-10<\/li>\n<li>Clip: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=j0X0U6bwrVs\">the video on YouTube<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Cycle per coil: our worked example, illustrative values<\/li>\n<li>Standards scope: ISO 12100:2010;
