Conventional Positioners

Conventional Positioners

BODE Range of Conventional Positioners, developed over 35 years, provide steel fabrication shops with the most up-to-date equipment for placing bulky fabrications in the 'downhand' position in the shortest possible time without the use of cranes and man power.

BODE Positioners are built to give long trouble-free service and include all necessary built-in safety features. The Positioning tables rotate at accurate and constant variable speeds and tilt through 1350 with a high c.o.g. load rating.

BODE Positioners can be supplied for interfacing with Robot or Column and Boom Manipulators.
