The multidrum turner is a must-have for any company that has to manipulate different drums every day.

A barrel is a very convenient container for storing certain goods. Usually, these are goods in liquid form. Barrels also come in different shapes and sizes. However, it is the application that differs from company to company.

Some companies empty their barrels with complex installations. Others use these drums only for storage and simply dispatch them. Still others have to transfer these drums to other drums or containers.

The multi drum turner is the solution of choice for lifting, moving and rotating these drums. It is an excellent alternative for those who lift heavy drums or regularly alternate between metal and plastic drums.

A robust alternative to the drum turner

For the Logitrans drum turner separate grippers are required depending on the type of drum to be manipulated. The grippers of the multidrum turner, however, can exert sufficient grip on both metal and plastic. The capacity of the multidrum turner is also higher, namely 350 kg compared to the 250 kg of the drum turner.

This device can often be found in chemical or pharmaceutical environments where the manipulation of heavy barrels is commonplace. Some common processes are grabbing drums that are stored on a pallet. After this, the multidrum turner can move the drum to the desired location. It then raises the drum to the required height and with the push of a button turns the drum 180° to empty it into a large container.

In many locations where this solution is used, strict hygiene regulations apply. This means that intensive cleaning takes place in these environments and, of course, this can have a corrosive effect on the device.

For this, it is possible to obtain the multidrum turner in a stainless version. Or perhaps you need such a solution in a zone where there is a risk of explosion? On request, Logitrans can also convert these devices for ATEX zone 1 and ATEX zone. So your employees can work ergonomically and safely.
