IBC Tilter Stand

• Used in food processing for gravity-assisted discharge of viscous or bulk liquid ingredients from Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs).
• Applicable in beverage production for ensuring complete drainage of syrups, concentrates, or other liquid components.
• Utilised in pharmaceutical manufacturing for efficient emptying of liquid raw materials or finished products from IBCs.
• Found in chemical industries for controlled discharge of various liquids, maximising product recovery.
• Integrated into cosmetic production lines for handling and dispensing bulk liquid ingredients.

Typical Safe Working Load (SWL)

For this class of equipment, SWL commonly ranges from 1000 kg to 1500 kg, accommodating standard IBC sizes.

Material of construction

Units of this type are typically manufactured from Grade 304 or 316 stainless steel, suitable for hygienic environments.

Loading height

Commonly, the loading height for an IBC is around 700mm to 1000mm, designed for ergonomic access and discharge.

Tipping mechanism

This equipment typically employs a spring-assisted or hydraulic mechanism to tilt the IBC as it empties, ensuring full drainage.

Footprint

The footprint for an IBC tilter stand is generally compact, designed to accommodate a standard 1000L IBC, typically around 1200mm x 1200mm.

Mounting

Many units are designed for floor mounting, requiring secure bolting for stability during operation.
