Separating, rotating & re-assembling die sets is always a problem. With the Flip-Rite ^TM, you can accomplish all operations faster anywhere there is overhead crane service. You can separate & rotate the die set right on the press, eliminating transfers the to the tool room for a simple repair or tool change.

Fabrications/Welding

The proper welding position in any fabrication process is always an important consideration. With the Flip-Rite ^TM, you can rotate the workpiece so all welding can be performed in a "down hand" position, improving weld quality. The result is labor efficiency, production time savings, and realistic employee ergonomics.

With the Flip-Rite ^TM, you can rotate trailer frames so that rear wheel assemblies (bogies) can be lowered onto the frame from overhead. Trailer manufacturers have used this method to achieve a faster & better method for carrying out welding & assembly procedures. An extra bonus is the ergonomic benefit to employees.

Concrete

Repairing concrete is almost as costly as manufacturing it. Much damage to concrete occurs as a result of wrangling the shape on the ground. The Flip-Rite ^TM Handling System will reduce the need for costly repairs & significantly increase handling speed.

Machining

When machining an expensive engine block, you want to avoid damaging it while moving or rotating it between operations. With the Flip- Rite ^TM, the positioning can be done gently and precisely. It only takes the push of a button to move or rotate any size part from 100 lbs to over 100 tons.

Because the headroom was limited, Itnac engineered a system to rotate a railroad car during assembly by using two fixtures mounted in the main frame rail. The rotation fixtures were engineered and manufactured by Itnac. We supplied the complete system, Flip-Rite^TM, and Radio Control and Rotation Fixtures for a "turn-key" system. Note that the railroad car is very close to the floor and the Flip-Rite^TM module is below the roof of the railroad car. It was truly a challenge that was completed successfully. We currently have systems turning all forms of railroad cars. If you have a unique handling or challenging application, please contact us.
