The Backsaver CD tipping machine is designed to empty heavy, extra-large plastic bins, combo bins, pallet crates, bulk boxes or octabins and other large containers. Equipped with a battery and twin hydraulic cylinders, this heavy-duty machine can tip bins of up to 1,500 kg / 3,500 lbs and up to 1,400 mm / 47.2″ high.

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 tipper with a pallet jack or forklift. The load is then tipped 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.

Improved process: Perfect for product transfers and discharges

Backsavers are simple, easy-to-use machines that enhance production and reduce the risk of workplace injury. This machine is ideal whether you work at a table or on a process line. 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 used to transfer products from cardboard bulk boxes to plastic bins. It can also be integrated into a process line to fill, for example, a screw conveyor’s hopper.

Powerful rechargeable batteries

Backsavers are powered by rechargeable batteries, so they can be used everywhere on the work floor regardless of the power-supply location. The batteries are suitable for operation in refrigerated areas and can be plugged in overnight for convenient charging. With fully charged batteries you can handle approximately 60 tons of products.

Operational safety: No forced lowering; light and sound for caution

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 are developed especially for the food industry. They are safe to operate and suitable for direct contact with food products.

The Nimo-KG C3 Column Dumper machine (SKV 300 C3) is designed to empty standard DIN9797 200- or 300-liter meat carts, trolleys or buggies when the Backsaver NT/NTLT tipper’s dumping height is insufficient. The C3 Backsaver is available in different heights, between 1150 & 3250mm. The machine can be equipped with an adjustable dumping height on the column which allows the discharge height range to be set at 500mm difference in steps of 50mm.

The Column dumper is perfect for dumping trolleys in high buffers, mixers, tanks etc. without having the employee(s) to reach overhead or to walk up and down a stairs/ using a platform. This results in healthier & happier employees, reduction of risks such as back pain, strain and injuries, which improves the efficiency of the production process.

Improved process: Buggy handling as easy as it gets

Backsavers and Nimo-KG lifts are simple, easy-to-use machines that enhance production and reduce the risk of workplace injury. The control unit is placed on the column itself and the lifter can be operated by pressing the hold-to-run up- or down-button.

It can be easily integrated into a process line to discharge buggies into a high conveyor, buffer or a screw conveyor’s hopper for example. The standard Column Dumper is a fixed/static system.

Optional the Column Dumper can be delivered with a mobile undercariage to make it mobile and deployable anywhere in your facility.

Fixed power connection

Unlike our other Backsaver models, the Nimo-KG Single Column Dumper is standard powered by a fixed power connection. The reason for a fixed power connection with the Column Dumper is that these models will be mainly used as a fixed dumper and can be optionally used in different spots when equipped with the mobile carriage. The benefit with the fixed power supply is that this machine can run 24h/day, 7 days a week.

Operational safety: Hold-to-run up-& down-button to control the movement.

Unlike Backsavers, this machine is driven by an electrical motor in combination with a chain. Discharging & lowering the Buggy can be easily done by pressing the hold-to-run Up- or Down-button on the control box .

The reason for this usage is to avoid people getting trapped or hit by the column dumpers movement with an automated system, the operator must be within the machine operating space at all times when operating the the machine.

With a discharge height of 2500mm and above we need to switch to the C4 base model to avoid torsion issues and a safety fence around the machine will become mandatory.
An upgrade to a bigger double column lift like the Nimo-KG SKV 200 MK2 is a possible upgrade with high weights and preferable autonomous position.

Design and function

The twin column lift comprises two main components: the main stand and the lifting frame. The stand consists of two columns constructed from plates and fully welded single hollow sections. The bottom frame is equipped with four feet for securing the machine to the floor. The lifting frame is primarily constructed from fully welded single hollow sections and moves within the columns. Vertical motion is achieved through an electro-mechanical system using either a roller chain or belt.

To ensure safety, the container to be tipped is positioned within the lifting frame, which features a retaining mechanism to secure the container in place. The twin column lift is driven by an electric gearbox motor with a brake. Operation is controlled via electrical push buttons, including an emergency stop button. The tipping process begins when the upper follower rollers of the lifting frame engage with the tipping curves, while simultaneously, the lower rollers continue to ascend within the columns.

For safety measures, the machine is equipped with a safety cage featuring electrically interlocked doors to prevent accidents.

General Points

The twin column lift is designed in accordance with the specifications of food industry authorities and complies with CE norms: 2006/42/EC, 2006/95/EC, and 2004/108/EC, as confirmed in the declaration of conformity enclosed in the CE documentation.

The twin column lift can be supplied in various standard designs at an additional cost:

• Low-built model (SK 800 MK-L)
• Mobile on wheels or able to move sideways on a rail (SK 800 MK2-T)
• Equipped with a combined lifting frame for buggies
• Features a locking device for special containers or varying container heights
• Suitable for heavier loads (maximum 1500 kgs)
