Pallet Powered Carousel

A carousel is a tool that will not only protect employees from injury and fatigue, but makes them more productive.

It consists of a base that supports a round flat disk.

The disk can rotate 360 degrees, and can support heavy pallets.

Employees merely push on them lightly to start the movement, as they use centrifugal force.

This saves a lot of stress and strain on the employee’s back and shoulders, as well as reducing back strain from twisting while holding or maneuvering heavy items.

Carousels can be a good investment for any company whose employees work routinely with pallet trucks, lifts and workbenches in any kind of storage facility.

Carousels use roller bearings to easily transport the supporting table around with the ease if a slight push.

Four guide rollers located inside keep everything aligned properly and prevents seizing up. Carousels can be purchased online or at many shops specializing in heavy equipment.

Standard carousels are best suited to loads that are not odd-shaped or overly wide.

They can support up to 6,000 pounds with ease. Customized options may be available such as a manual brake, stainless steel rings or an elevated base.

If the company works more with larger loads or odd-shaped loads, a heavy-duty carousel may be more appropriate.

Heavy-duty units feature a top plate with a stabilizing center pin and a maintenance free heavy-duty bearing.

Depending on the model you choose, the top plate will vary in thickness to suit 4,000 pound loads or 6,000 pound loads.

This unit is strong enough for the load to hang 50% off the plate safely.

The true value of purchasing a heavy-duty unit as opposed to a standard or lighter unit lies in its versatility. 

A heavy-duty carousel can be used for any size or shaped load. 

Low profile powered carousels are only a couple of inches off the ground and can be utilized easily with a pallet truck and a ramp.

The platform is heavy-duty steel and features non-skid tread.

Activated by a foot pedal, the operator can control the speed and cushion the start or stop.

Stand alone powered carousels are very rugged and can easily be used for pallets, skids, or other large loads.

Operated by a foot control, these carousels are reliable and built to last for several years of hard use.
