What is the U-CARE C tipper ?

The U-CARE C is a full electric unloader for containers and pallets that guarantees smooth handling by the use of a “lid” conveyor. This equipment is used by every sorting and e-commerce centers which receive parcels and packages loaded in containers or placed on pallets. These parcels can then be transfred on singulation conveyors.

This parcel unloader allows you to empty almost any type of container: pallet, gaylord, rolling cage, boxes… After having inserted the container, the tipper tilts. Then, the packages fall gently on the cover conveyor and are evacuated on the reception conveyor.
