Key Benefits of Turntable Swivel Sections

There are many benefits to selecting turntable swivel sections for your operations. Some of the most important benefits include:

• Maximizes efficiency: Turntable swivel sections allow workers to remain in a stationary position while rotating items. This improves efficiency and ergonomics.

• Free rotation: Swivels facilitate reliable rotation, which improves ergonomics and reduces the potential for damaging the item or causing personal injuries.

• Customization: Choosing the appropriate swivel requires customization. At RWM, our customizable swivel sections can be designed to account for everything from load requirements to operational conditions.

• Longevity: Because of their robust design, swivel sections have exceptional longevity and require minimal maintenance. At RWM, our swivel sections incorporate a single ball bearing set within a precision-machined raceway that is hardened to a 53 Rockwell C standard. This gives our swivel sections a carrying capacity of up to 30,000 lbs.
