Routine maintenance commonly involves checking the gearbox oil levels, inspecting electrical connections, and ensuring all safety interlocks function correctly. Lubrication of moving parts may also be required.

Can the discharge height be adjusted?

This particular unit has a fixed discharge height of 1000mm. Some tippers offer adjustable discharge heights, but this is not a standard feature for all models.

What are the safety considerations for operating this equipment?

Key safety features include comprehensive guarding with interlocked doors, preventing access to moving parts during operation. Operators should always follow manufacturer guidelines and site-specific safety protocols.

BTM/400/1000/B/G Euro Pallet Box Tipper

This Euro Pallet Box Tipper was designed to lift and tip a Euro Pallet Box at a discharge height of 1000mm. The Euro Pallet Box Tipper is a fully welded steel construction and is designed to be bolted to the floor. The Euro Pallet Box Tipper is powered via a Helical Bevel gearbox and tips the Euro Pallet Box to a maximum angle of 180 degrees. The Euro Pallet Box is loaded into lift frame and raised by rotation of the lifting carriage by the motor gearbox. As the Euro Pallet Box is tipped over to the full tip angle the parcels and packages are discharged into a conveyor hopper. The Euro Pallet Box is securely retained in the lift carriage in the fully tipped position.

Safety Guard to BS EN 14120:2015 Safety of Machinery

The Euro Pallet Box Tipper is supplied complete with a safety guard to meet the guidelines of BS EN 14120:2015 Safety of Machinery Guards. The safety guard is constructed from 40 x 40 x 3mm stainless steel box section and 3mm wire, 40mm aperture weld mesh. It encloses the Euro Pallet Box Tipper to a height of 2200mm on two sides, 1000mm at the tipping side with a pair of interlocked hinged guard doors on the fourth side. The guard doors are electrically and mechanically interlocked to prevent the Euro Pallet Box Tipper from operating if either door is open. Additionally, the guard doors can only be opened when the lift carriage is at the full down position to prevent access whilst a load is raised. The safety guard extended around the tipping position to prevent access to the moving parts during the tipping cycle.

Euro Pallet Box Tipper Electrical Control

The Euro Pallet Box is fitted with an IP65 Stainless Steel Control Panel which is mounted on the Safety Guard at a convenient position to give good maintenance access under the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulation 1998 (PUWER). The Euro Pallet Box Tipper control system included an Inverter to allow for speed control and a Rotary Position Sensor to stop at the full up and full down positions. It also incorporated Over Travel Proximity Sensors which were independent of the Rotary Sensor.

The Euro Pallet Box Tipper Control Panel is fitted with a PLC and HMI that allows features including:-

Adjustment of the Full Up position
Adjustment of the Full Down position
A Tip Counter
Selection of the Mail Sweep Mode
Interfacing with other equipment

The Euro Pallet Box Tipper control sequence is as follows:-

The Euro Pallet Box is loaded into the Euro Pallet Box Tipper and the Guard Door closed
There is a photo sensor inside the safety enclosure that senses that the Euro Pallet Box is loaded correctly before the box can be tipped
The Control On button is pressed followed by the System Start button which would cause the Euro Pallet Box Tipper to lift and tip
The tipping cycle is automated so that once the full up position is reached and all of the mail is tipped out, the Euro Pallet Box Tipper will return to the full down position to allow the empty Euro Pallet Box to be replaced
The guard gate interlock switch is released via a ‘Guard Release’ push button which allows the safety guard door to be opened
The empty Euro Pallet Box can then be removed and replaced with a full one and the whole cycle repeated
