Turning units

With special turning units such as turning tables or blank turning tables, a wide range of heavy loads can be turned, from sheet metal to blank stacks, tools, round steel blanks or coils. An innovative and durable heavy load transportation solution from WIMO Hebetechnik is ideal for these challenges.

The special feature of a turning unit from WIMO® is that it is custom-designed and developed for the individual application scenario in the company. For this purpose, all on-site circumstances are analysed and taken into consideration. The designs of our turning units are just as varied as their application areas. For example, depending on customer requirements, the transported load can be turned with a turning unit from WIMO® by 90 degrees or 180 degrees. In addition, operation of this special transport solution is simple and convenient. Turning units from WIMO Hebetechnik are all-round devices that can support operational processes in an extremely profitable way.
