Customization Options
Phenolic Cover
This cover sits above the palletizer, but under the turntable ring. Keeps debris from collecting under the unit.
Solid Disc Cover
Solid steel disc cover can be used in place of an open turntable ring. Ideal for damaged pallets or small / odd sized pallets or skids.
Fork Pocket Caster Kit
Fork pockets mount under the unit to allow palletizer to be portable. A foot-operated floor lock keeps the unit from rolling when in use.
Leveling Feet
For use on uneven or damaged floors. Four adjustable screw feet can be independently adjusted to ensure the palletizer is perfectly level.
Bellows Accordion Skirting
Black and yellow vinyl skirting wraps can be added to keep the area underneath the unit free from debris. The pleats expand and contract as the unit raises and lowers.
Access Step
Handy, non-skid step slips into fork channels to give shorter operators better access to the top of loads.
Square Turntable Platforms
Units can be equipped with a square turntable instead of the standard ring. Use with small or odd-shaped skids or pallets.
