Tipper
Advanced Pharmaceutical Lifting and Tilting Solutions for Controlled Granule Discharge and Material HandlingThe Tipper, also known as a Lifting and Tilting Device, is designed for lifting, positioning, and discharging pharmaceutical powders and granules from suitable material handling containers. It is commonly used for transferring dried granules from Fluid Bed Dryer (FBD) bowls into downstream milling, sifting, and collection equipment. The system uses a controlled lifting mechanism combined with a tilting arrangement to position the container for discharge.
Intence Engineering offers Tippers as part of its pharmaceutical material handling equipment portfolio. Lifting and tilting technology supports controlled material transfer while reducing the need for manual handling of heavy processing containers. The appropriate equipment design depends on container dimensions, load capacity, required lifting height, tilting arrangement, and compatibility with downstream processing equipment.
Applications of Tipper
- FBD Bowl Discharge: Lifting and tilting suitable Fluid Bed Dryer bowls to transfer dried granules into downstream processing or collection equipment.
- Granule Transfer to Milling Equipment: Supporting material discharge into Cone Mills, Multi Mills, Oscillating Granulators, and other suitable particle sizing equipment.
- Powder and Granule Handling: Facilitating controlled discharge of suitable pharmaceutical powders and granular materials between production stages.
- Pharmaceutical Process Integration: Supporting material transfer from drying operations to sifting, milling, blending, and suitable intermediate bulk container systems.
Key Features
- Combined Lifting and Tilting: Enables suitable containers to be raised and tilted for material discharge into receiving equipment.
- Controlled Vertical Positioning: The lifting system positions the container at the required processing height.
- Container Tilting Mechanism: Controlled rotation or inversion of the container supports gravity-assisted material discharge.
- FBD Bowl Handling: Suitable tipping configurations can accommodate FBD bowls for granule transfer after drying.
- Reduced Manual Material Handling: Mechanized lifting and tilting help minimize manual scooping, lifting, and handling of heavy containers.
- Controlled Material Discharge: Suitable discharge connections can support more contained transfer of powders and granules to downstream equipment.
- Safety-Oriented Lifting: Intence Engineering’s documented lifting equipment portfolio includes limit switches and safety locking arrangements.
- Pharmaceutical Process Compatibility: Supports integration with suitable milling, sifting, and material collection operations.

Available Capacity
Lifting Equipment Range: 100 kg to 1,000 kg or Higher
Intence Engineering’s documented lifting equipment portfolio includes capacities from 100 kg to 1,000 kg or higher, depending on customer requirements. This range applies to the broader lifting equipment portfolio and does not confirm the individual capacity of every Tipper model. Appropriate Tipper selection depends on the combined weight of the container and its contents, required lifting height, tilting mechanism, container dimensions, and operating conditions. The model-specific safe working load should be confirmed with Intence Engineering.
