The Backsaver BRLT lifting/tipping machine is designed for emptying wide plastic bins, pallet crates and other large containers when the Backsaver BR tipper’s dumping height is insufficient. The BRLT machine is equipped with a van Oirschot specialty lift-and-tip system that makes it possible to raise a large, heavy bin to a certain height and then tilt it. Unlike LT, it is a wider and larger stationary machine that can be occasionally moved and easily accepts loads from pallet jacks, pallet trucks or forklift trucks.
Improved process: Backsavers for longer uptime in food processing
Backsavers are simple, easy-to-use machines that enhance production and reduce the risk of workplace injury. BRLT is ideal whether you work at a table, a process line or an elevated loading platform. Independent controls on both sides of the machine are reachable regardless of its actual position, thus eliminating all the extra walking around the machine to operate it, reducing downtime and making it a very popular solution at food-processing facilities. It can be easily integrated into a process line to discharge large bins onto a belt conveyor or into a screw conveyor’s hopper. It can also be used to fill other machinery, such as grinders, separators, tumblers, cutters, injectors and packers.
Health and enhanced productivity
This machine is designed to be installed at specific locations for emptying operations. When needed, it can still be occasionally relocated. A bin of product (meat, fish, vegetables, etc.) is loaded into the lifter/tipper with a pallet jack or forklift. The load is then raised and tilted in a single smooth motion until the product starts to come out or even further to the maximum set angle. Because manual lifting, crouching and bending are no longer necessary, the risk of back pain, strain and injury is reduced. Healthy personnel are happier, more efficient and productive, and throughput is maximized.
Powerful rechargeable battery
Backsavers are powered by rechargeable batteries, so they can be used everywhere on the work floor regardless of the power-supply location. The battery is suitable for operation in refrigerated areas and can be plugged in overnight for convenient charging. With a fully charged battery you can handle approximately 40 tons of products.
Operational safety: Unforced lowering signaled by light and sound
BRLT, with its two heavy-duty locking swivel casters mounted outside of the frame for maximum stability, can optionally be set to a tipping angle of up to 108 degrees while remaining stable and safe. Like other Backsavers, this machine is driven by twin hydraulic cylinders that use gravity for the lowering action. So, it’s very safe because it significantly reduces the risk that its moving parts might incur bodily injury. For even greater safety, it features an audible backup signal and a flashing LED beacon light that warn others about parts in motion, ensuring extra attention during operation.
Hygiene and food safety: Backsavers for direct food contact
Backsavers are developed especially for the food industry. They are safe to operate and suitable for direct contact with food products. These machines are stainless steel for easier cleanups and wash-downs making it possible to use power washers. BRLT has been engineered, designed and manufactured in the Netherlands since 2010.
