EZ-Tilt Series
Large Roll Tilting Equipment for Safer Roll Orientation
The EZ-Tilt Series is designed to safely transition large, heavy rolls from horizontal storage or shipping positions into upright operating orientation. Built to solve a long-standing challenge in printing and converting environments, EZ-Tilt systems reduce manual handling while improving operator safety and material control.
Engineered for simplicity and durability, EZ-Tilt allows operators to lift, tilt, and reposition rolls with minimal effort—without forklifts or unsafe manual procedures.
Where EZ-Tilt Is Used
EZ-Tilt systems are commonly used in operations where rolls must be moved from horizontal pallets into vertical positions for processing, including:
Printing and converting production floors
Roll staging and material preparation areas
Facilities handling large or heavy rolls stored horizontally
Operations seeking safer alternatives to manual roll tilting
Designed for Controlled, Safe Roll Handling
The EZ-Tilt Series uses a center-core gripping mechanism to securely engage rolls before lifting and tilting. Operators position the expandable core boom into the roll core, secure the grip, and raise the roll using either manual or powered lifting.
Side-to-side adjustment allows precise positioning before lifting, ensuring stability throughout the tilt process. Reversing the operation allows rolls to be returned safely to horizontal storage when needed.
Safety-First Design
Safety is central to the EZ-Tilt design. Standard safety features include:
Automatically activated safety brake to prevent load drop in the event of lift failure
Toe-activated wheel brakes to secure the unit during operation
Stable, controlled lifting and tilting to minimize roll movement
These features help reduce workplace injuries and protect valuable materials during handling.
