The DD 1.25 has a history all of its own as far as Premier are concerned, being the only inverter in the range not originally conceived, designed and built at the company’s Norfolk factory.
In 2001 Premier bought out the inverter interests of their European competitor, LTF, based in Utrecht. Most of the Dutch machines worked on a dual clamp/’A’ frame principle and were similar in essence to Premier’s own models. However, the DD 1.25 was set up as a lightweight, lower capacity system mainly to handle 800 x 1200mm euro pallets. As such, it filled a gap in the programme ideally. Subsequent sales at home and abroad have confirmed this.
The machine has an opening range which allows it to invert loads from 900 to 1900mm in height and up to 1250 kgs in weight. The tables open close enough to the floor to permit ramp loading if required. It is invariably supplied with attached guards and always has extended push button controls. Fork tunnels in the base enable it to be relocated easily from one part of the warehouse to another.
It has a smart well-enclosed appearance which keeps it looking clean and presentable in food and pharmaceutical locations where, in common with the other inverters, it is mostly used transferring goods to and from clean pallets.
Due to its low overall weight, it has proved an ideal system to demonstrate the concept of 180 degree inversion at trade fairs. Its compact dimensions make it equally ideal on a show stand or in a small warehouse where space is at a premium.
