Used Pile Turner (Pallet Inverter) in Germany

Overview

Pile turners, commonly called pallet inverters, are machines that flip, rotate or transfer stacked pallets and loads quickly and safely. They let you invert a full pallet to change damaged pallets, swap bottom/top layers, access goods for inspection, or transfer loads between pallet types without manual unloading. Ideal for food, beverage, and manufacturing lines where speed, load stability and worker safety matter, they come in bench, semi-automatic and fully automatic models.

FAQ

What should I check when buying a used pallet inverter?

Verify rated capacity, pallet sizes it supports, condition of clamps and hydraulics, control functionality, and wear on frames. Ask for maintenance records and test-cycle the machine under load before purchase.

How is a pallet inverter shipped to my site?

Shipments often require a flatbed or lowboy depending on weight and size. You may need skidding or crating, and coordinate crane or forklift access for unloading. Check if disassembly is needed to meet transport height or weight limits.

What routine maintenance keeps a pile turner reliable?

Maintain hydraulic fluid and filters, inspect seals and hoses for leaks, lubricate pivot points, check clamp surfaces and sensors, and test safety interlocks regularly. Keep spare seals and a hydraulic hose kit on hand.
