Powerful Manufacturer of Turning Devices

Load turning units suspended from cranes are a type of lifting and rotating system designed for the turning, assembly, and maintenance of vehicle frames, chassis, large workpieces, and special-shaped parts. Suspended from the crane hook, these units combine a rigid slewing mechanism with precise drive control to achieve smooth rotation and multi-point positioning of heavy-loaded workpieces within 0°–360° range, enabling reliable and safe turning operations on production lines.

Load Turning Device Components and Operating Principle

  ● Slewing Mechanism: High-rigidity slewing bearings and gear reduction or precision reducers ensure low deflection and stable load distribution.

  ● Drive Units: Servo/variable frequency motor drives the slewing element through a reducer, achieving smooth rotation and precise angle control.

  ● Transmission Method: High-strength fiber belts or chains are used to lift and rotate the workpiece.

  ● Control System: Precisely control the turning angle via a remote control, allowing for hovering at any angle.

  ● Safety Protection: Mechanical limit stops/buffers, electronic overspeed/overtorque detection, and redundant brakes.

Advantages of Load Turning Device for Cranes

  ● Can be directly mounted on an existing crane, eliminating the need for major modifications to the production line or foundation.

  ● The uniform and smooth turning process prevents surface damage to the workpiece caused by bumps and scratches.

  ● Support remote control, allowing the operator to stay away from the load and the tilting area, ensuring personal safety.

  ● Automatically adjust balance based on force distribution to prevent the workpiece from shaking or slipping.

  ● The turning solution can be customized to meet the specific load and workpiece requirements.

Common Applications

  ● Turnover, assembly, and painting of automobile chassis and frames

  ● Angle adjustment and welding of steel structures and large components

  ● Overhaul and positioning of marine engines

  ● Turning over casting sandbox molds for inspection and preparation
