The Pentalift Pro Series Hydraulic Lift & Tilt Table combines the lifting functionality of a Pro Series Hydraulic Lift Table with the added ability to tilt the platform to a desired working angle. This industrial lift and tilt table provides vertical positioning and platform tilting in one piece of equipment, making it well suited for material positioning, assembly, manufacturing, loading, unloading, and other applications where both the height and angle of a load need to be adjusted. Â The tilter pivots on the rolling end of the lift table platform for safety and stability, and a 12-inch-high backstop supports the load as the platform is tilted.
Independent Hydraulic Lift and Tilt Functions
The lift and tilt functions operate independently using separate controls. The operator can raise or lower the platform without changing its tilt angle, or adjust the tilt angle without changing the platform height. This independent operation provides positioning flexibility for applications requiring both vertical lifting and controlled load tilting.
By combining these two functions into one unit, the Pro Series Lift and Tilt table can help position materials at a more convenient working height and angle for operators. This makes it suitable for applications involving material positioning, assembly, manufacturing, ergonomic work positioning, and loading and unloading components from bins.
In a typical bin application, the operator raises the container to a comfortable working height and tilts it toward the work position, then adjusts both again as parts are added or removed. For loose parts stored in bins, tilting brings the material closer to the operator, reducing the need to reach deep into the bin. This makes the Pro Series an effective material positioning lift table for parts presentation.

How a Hydraulic Lift Table with Tilt Reduces Operator Strain
Repetitive bending and reaching are common when operators work from bins or containers at floor level. Pentalift’s lift and tilt equipment brings components closer to a comfortable working height and angle, helping improve accessibility, reduce unnecessary movement, and create a more efficient workstation.
A lift table with tilt platform addresses both height and angle. Because operators can set the position that suits them, one ergonomic lift and tilt table can serve different operators and tasks at the same workstation.

Lift & Tilt Table Applications
The Pro Series Lift & Tilt is designed for applications where materials or products need to be raised, lowered, and tilted independently. Typical applications include:
- Container and bin access
- Material positioning
- Ergonomic work positioning
- Parts presentation
- Assembly and manufacturing operations
- Loading and unloading
- Production workstations
- Material handling and positioning
The ability to independently control the lift height and platform tilt angle can provide greater flexibility when positioning loads for operator access, assembly, processing, inspection, or material handling.
Configure a Hydraulic Lift & Tilt Table for Your Application
Selecting the appropriate hydraulic lift and tilt table depends on the load, platform requirements, required lifting travel, tilt angle, and operating environment. Pentalift can help determine the appropriate configuration based on:
- Load capacity
- Platform width and length
- Required lifting travel and height
- Required tilt angle
- Load dimensions and weight distribution
- Operating requirements
- Control preferences
- Installation conditions
Weight distribution deserves extra attention on a tilting platform, because the load’s center of gravity shifts as the platform angles. Pentalift’s guide to lift table load capacity and center of gravity explains how this affects capacity when specifying an industrial hydraulic lift table with tilt.
Because platform dimensions, capacity, travel, and tilt requirements can affect the mechanical configuration, Pentalift can review your application requirements and help determine the appropriate lift and tilt table configuration.

Hydraulic Lift and Tilt Table FAQs
What is a hydraulic lift and tilt table?
A hydraulic lift and tilt table is a hydraulic lifting and tilting table that raises and lowers a load and angles it toward the operator. On the Pentalift Pro Series, a tilter is mounted on a Pro Series lift table, and the lift and tilt functions run independently with separate controls. It is used as a hydraulic positioning table for assembly, parts presentation, and container access.
What tilt angles are available on the Pro Series Lift & Tilt?
The Pro Series hydraulic lift tilt table is available with a 30° or 45° tilt angle, depending on the selected configuration. The right angle depends on the load and how the operator works with it. Deep bins and containers often benefit from more tilt, while loads that need to stay closer to level may only need 30°.
