Drum Stacker with Tilt Function

Drum stacker with tilt function 450 kg – lift, rotate and position 200 L drums with confidence

The DA45 drum stacker is designed for busy industrial environments where drums must be moved, tilted and positioned many times per day. Instead of juggling separate trucks and improvised rigs, one compact, manual machine lets a single operator lift, rotate and set a drum precisely where it is needed. Faster changeovers, fewer spills and safer, more predictable handling in production, maintenance and warehouse work!

Three operations

Lift. A foot‑operated hydraulic pump raises the load smoothly to a maximum lift height of 1500 mm. This 1500 mm lift height suits common worktops and low rack levels. The pump delivers controlled strokes that make it easy to approach a fill point or storage level without overshooting.

Rotate/tilt. A geared hand crank provides controlled 360° rotation. Lock the drum horizontally, vertically or at any intermediate dispensing angle to suit decanting, blending or partial emptying. Rotation feels predictable and secure, even when contents shift.

Move. Two Ø 150 mm steering wheels and Ø 80 mm tandem fork rollers glide over concrete, epoxy coatings and grating. A mechanical foot brake holds the truck steady during lifting, pouring and parking.

Secure clamping for steel and plastic drums

The adjustable band clamp secures common 200 L steel and plastic drums without adapters. Minimum drum diameter is 590 mm, which covers typical 55‑gallon specifications. This corresponds to the common 55‑gallon drum standard used globally. Once clamped, the drum is held firmly so it will not creep or walk as you rotate or roll it across the floor. The clamp design also helps distribute pressure around the drum to reduce the risk of localised denting at the chimes.

Compact, stable and easy to steer

Working in service corridors and between racking can be awkward. With a 1000 × 1400 mm footprint and 2100 mm overall height, the DA45 stays manoeuvrable in moderately narrow aisles while keeping a reassuringly low centre of gravity. The truck’s 190 kg mass and robust geometry add stability under full 450 kg capacity, so the operator can focus on line clearance and accuracy, not on balancing the load.

Built for industrial duty

A welded steel chassis withstands knocks, while the high‑visibility yellow powder coat (RAL 1028) resists wear and makes the unit easy to spot around traffic. The DA45 meets CE requirements for machinery placed on the market in the EU/EEA.

Safety features

• Pressure‑relief valve: protects the hydraulic circuit from overloads and contributes to controlled lowering.
• Mechanical foot brake: stabilises the truck during lift and rotation.
• Rubber‑sheathed crank: gives a secure grip with oily or gloved hands.
