ZFITA supplies gantry-style hydraulic container tilting solutions for industrial bulk material loading and unloading applications.
Our ZCF35-SS and ZCF35-DD configurations provide different truck access and container tilting arrangements for facilities handling grain, fertilizers, minerals, scrap metal and other dry bulk materials.
| Model | Configuration | Tilting Angle |
|---|---|---|
| ZCF35-SS | Single-Lane, Single-Side Tilting | 0–90° |
| ZCF35-DD | Dual-Lane, Dual-Side Tilting | ±90° |
The ZCF35-SS is suitable for a designated single-side operating arrangement, while the ZCF35-DD offers additional flexibility for truck entry direction and dual-side tilting operations.
As a container handling equipment supplier in China, ZFITA can help customers select hydraulic container tilting configurations based on truck access, container size, cargo characteristics and installation conditions.
The ZCT-ATT20 is designed with a rated lifting capacity of 40,000 kg and a Q355B steel structure for demanding industrial container-handling operations.
Its reinforced supporting arrangement is designed for standard 20ft containers and repeated hydraulic tilting cycles.
The actual working load must remain within the equipment’s rated capacity and the applicable container weight limits.
The hydraulic system provides an adjustable tilting angle from 0° to 90°, supporting different bulk loading and discharge procedures.
The standard technical configuration includes:
The operating angle can be adjusted according to the material characteristics, container arrangement and selected loading or unloading process.
The equipment is designed to operate with trucks carrying standard 20ft shipping containers.
After the truck positions the container onto the tilter, the container is secured using the mechanical locking arrangement before hydraulic movement begins.
This configuration eliminates the need for a separate crane to position the container during the normal truck-coordinated operating procedure.
The standard ZCT-ATT20 configuration uses manually operated mechanical locking pins.
Hydraulic container locking is available as an optional upgrade.
The equipment also supports hydraulic door actuation with manual assistance, allowing the container door operation to be coordinated with the loading or unloading process.
Operators can control the hydraulic tilting operation through a remote controller or a local control cabinet.
The equipment includes industrial hydraulic components designed for routine inspection and maintenance.
Hydraulic oil condition, working pressure, locking components and mechanical connections should be checked according to the equipment maintenance instructions.
The ZCT-ATT20 is designed for both container loading and unloading when combined with suitable material-handling equipment.
The actual operating sequence depends on the material, container-door arrangement and site safety procedures.
ZFITA 20ft container tilters are suitable for dry bulk loading and unloading projects where controlled container positioning and gravity-assisted handling are required.
| Industry | Typical Materials |
|---|---|
| Fertilizer | Potash, phosphate and bulk fertilizer |
| Mining | Minerals, alumina and bauxite dust |
| Chemical | Sulphur and compatible dry bulk commodities |
| Agriculture | Grain and other agricultural bulk materials |
| Recycling | Selected scrap metal and recycling materials |
| Industrial Bulk Handling | Other loose, free-flowing bulk solids |
Material suitability depends on bulk density, flowability, abrasiveness, moisture content and the equipment’s rated capacity.
For high-density or abrasive materials, protective arrangements and suitable feeding or discharge equipment should be reviewed during equipment selection.
ZFITA offers optional equipment configurations for different operating requirements.
An optional weighing module can provide cargo-weight information during loading, helping operators monitor the loading quantity and reduce unnecessary material re-handling.
Hydraulic locking can be selected as an upgrade to the standard manual mechanical locking arrangement.
Optional side-protection guards can be configured according to container geometry and operational requirements.
The standard ZCT-ATT20 configuration uses a 380V / 3 Phase / 50Hz electrical power supply.
Alternative power arrangements, including diesel-driven hydraulic power units, may be discussed for sites with different power-supply conditions, subject to engineering confirmation.
ZFITA supplies hydraulic container tilting equipment and bulk material handling solutions for customers requiring reliable container loading and unloading systems.
Our ZCT-ATT20 is designed for standard 20ft ISO containers and combines a 40-ton rated lifting capacity, Q355B steel construction, hydraulic tilting and configurable container locking systems.
We help customers select container tilter configurations according to material characteristics, loading requirements, container size, truck access and site conditions.
Available customization includes weighing systems, hydraulic locking, protection guards and compatible loading or receiving equipment.
In addition to the container tilter, ZFITA can provide compatible belt conveyors, material feeders and receiving hoppers to support complete bulk loading and unloading workflows.

The appropriate model depends on truck access, container size, loading or unloading method and required operating configuration.
ZFITA offers different 20ft container tilting solutions for facilities with varying operating requirements.
The ZCT-ATT20 fixed container tilter is designed for truck-coordinated loading and unloading at a designated operating station. It is suitable for facilities with established material-handling workflows and regular container operations.
For projects requiring movement between multiple loading or unloading points, the ZCT-SPTT20 self-propelled mobile container tilter provides an alternative. Its four-wheel-drive system allows the machine to travel within the yard and reposition between operating areas without a permanent fixed foundation.
| Feature | Fixed ZCT-ATT20 | Mobile ZCT-SPTT20 |
|---|---|---|
| Equipment Movement | Fixed Operating Position | Self-Propelled |
| Container Compatibility | Standard 20ft | Standard 20ft |
| Truck-Coordinated Operation | Yes | Yes |
| Permanent Fixed Foundation | Depends on Installation Design | Not Required |
| Multiple Operating Locations | Limited | Supported |
| Yard Transportation | Not Self-Propelled | Short-Distance Movement |
| Best Application | Dedicated Loading / Unloading Station | Flexible Multi-Point Operations |
Which configuration should you choose?
Choose a fixed 20ft container tilter for operations concentrated at one designated loading or unloading station.
Consider a mobile container tilter when your facility handles containers across multiple operating areas or requires frequent equipment repositioning.
Before purchasing a 20ft container tilter, customers should confirm the main operating requirements of their project.
| Purchasing Consideration | Information Required |
|---|---|
| Container Size | Standard ISO 20ft |
| Container Weight | Maximum Gross Container Weight |
| Bulk Material | Type, Density and Flowability |
| Loading / Unloading | Required Operating Process |
| Working Capacity | Required Tonnes per Hour |
| Site Layout | Truck Access and Available Space |
| Power Supply | Local Voltage and Frequency |
| Optional Equipment | Weighing, Locking and Protection |
These details help determine the equipment configuration and any additional material-handling systems required.
The ZCT-ATT20 has a rated load capacity of 40,000 kg. The actual permissible operating load must also comply with the shipping container’s allowable weight limits.
Yes. The equipment supports both loading and unloading applications when configured with suitable feeding or receiving equipment.
The standard ZCT-ATT20 has a specified tilting range of 0–90°, with a tilting speed of 2.0°/s.
