We understand that every application is unique, which is why we offer customisation and upgrades to tailor your machine to your specific requirements.

Stainless-steel model for clean environments

We can offer this drum rotator in stainless steel, suitable for clean rooms and good manufacturing practice (GMP) areas. Our stainless steel models are made from 304-grade material, and the finish is smooth and clean thanks to our modern vibratory polishing methods. We use nickel/chrome-plated hydraulic rams on these versions of the drum rotator.

Stainless-steel
STS equipment is of exceptional quality and at the forefront of handling innovation – so much so that many other pieces of handling equipment lay abandoned, with operators preferring to use the STS equipment!
The quality of the equipment is exceptional. Since implementing this equipment the risks associated with our site’s manual handling tasks have been greatly reduced and processes have become more efficient.
The product has been a massive success with the employees, and the fact that you allowed us to try before buying was a hit. All in all working with you and your team has been a very good experience.
