Hydraulic barrel inverters, named for their circular shape, are ideally suited to production line or high volume operations. Barrel Inverters can be loaded and unloaded from the same point by either a forklift or a conveyor, and can be customized to suit your application with a wide variety of options.
C-frame Inverters, Model IC Designed with a C-shaped cradle, West Bend Equipment C-frame inverters can be loaded and unloaded with a forklift or other material handling truck. With optional base rotation, C-frame inverters can be loaded and unloaded from the same side, eliminating extra forklift movements. They can also be customized to suit your application with a wide variety of options.
Available options for IB and IC inverters include:
- Long reach hydraulic scissors clamping for wide range of load heights.
- Multi-direction clamping to speed up duty cycles.
- Programmable logic controllers that automatically sequence loading and unloading to improve productivity and safety.
- Selectable pressure settings for a wide range of load sizes.
- Gravity or powered conveyor platforms to integrate into a process line.
- Other innovative features that increase the efficiency and productivity of your processes.

Model IB Barrel InverterA variety of operations can be performed with West Bend Equipment's barrel inverter. Features include powered rollers for conveyor-fed process lines and networking with production control systems. |
|
Model IB Barrel InverterThis barrel-style load inverter was designed to invert stacks of aluminum sheets for the automotive industry. It allows the aluminum sheets to be inserted and removed from the same side. A clamping force of 5 to 1 prevents the stacks from shifting. |
|
Model IC C-Frame InverterThis C-frame inverter with a hydraulic clamp features base rotation for returning loads to the point where they were loaded, thereby eliminating extra forklift movements. |
|
Model IC C-Frame InverterHydraulic clamping allows materials to be inverted quickly and securely with this West Bend Equipment C-frame inverter. The inverted material can be moved automatically to a conveyor line. |
|
Model IC C-Frame InverterThis West Bend Equipment C-frame inverter is designed for high capacity, high cycle operations. An industrial gear motor drives the load inverter's rotation on machined wheels that roll on permanently lubricated bearings. West Bend C-frame inverters are PLC-controlled so they can easily be integrated into automated process lines. |
