A Coil Upender (also called a Coil Tilter) is a heavy-duty machine used in metal processing industries to tilt or rotate coils of steel, aluminum, copper, or other materials from a horizontal to vertical position, or vice versa.
Since coils are often stored or transported in one orientation but need to be processed in another, an upender/tilter makes handling safer, faster, and more efficient.
Steel Service Centers: preparing coils for slitting or cut-to-length lines.
Roll Forming & Press Shops: orienting coils before decoiling.
Packaging Lines: shifting coil position for strapping and palletizing.
Transport & Storage: placing coils in the right orientation for forklifts or cranes.
