Product Overview

The IBC Lifting & Tilting System simplifies controlled lifting, tilting, and discharge of IBCs while maintaining process hygiene and minimizing manual handling. Also known as an IBC Tilter or IBC Discharge Station, it ensures gravity-based, dust-free material transfer with maximum operator safety and process precision.

• Controlled hydraulic or electro-mechanical lifting and tilting
• Safe, dust-free, and ergonomic discharge of powders or liquids
• Seamless integration with blenders, sifters, or conveyors
• Reduces operator fatigue and process downtime

How It Works

• IBC Loading: The IBC is placed on the lifter using a pallet truck or forklift.
• Locking System: Safety clamps hold the IBC securely during operation.
• Lifting Operation: Hydraulic or electric drive lifts the IBC to discharge height.
• Tilting & Discharge: The unit tilts up to 120–135° for complete, dust-free emptying.
• Integration: Discharge can feed directly into blenders, sifters, or conveyors.

👉 Ensures dust-free transfer, minimal material residue, and superior operator safety.
