The Power Rotating Device (PRD) provides precise, automated load rotation, commonly used for larger or palletized loads where the direction of flow must be maintained. It is an integral part of a Power Live Roller (PLR) conveyor and rotates 90 degrees clockwise or counter-clockwise.

Power Rotating Device (PRD)
The Innoveyance Power Rotating Device (PRD) rotates loads to a precise, programmed orientation as they move through the line — under automatic control. Where a turntable redirects flow, the PRD is purpose-built for accurate product rotation in palletizing and packaging sequences.
Precise, automated load rotation
The PRD turns each load to the exact angle the next operation requires — squaring product for stacking, orienting cartons for labeling, or rotating loads for interlocked pallet patterns. Rotation is powered and position-controlled for repeatable accuracy at production rate.
Built for palletizing and packaging
Accurate orientation is essential for stable, interlocked pallet loads and consistent downstream automation. The PRD integrates with Innoveyance bundle handling, load tiering, and pallet insertion equipment.
US-engineered precision
Built for repeatable, continuous-duty rotation. Every system is engineered, built, and supported in the United States, so lead times, customization, and service stay close to your plant — not an ocean away.

Features
- Safety Features: Horn and flashing light during rotation; non-roller surfaces covered with four-way safety walk plate; internally mounted photo-eye sensors ensure positive load placement before rotation.
- Controls: Available with manual, automatic, or OEM controls; all rotational positioning uses proximity sensors mounted to the base, with photo-eye-activated controls on both ends.
- Power: Floor-mounted mast with multiple-conductor hanging cord(s) connecting to a second mast on the rotating base.
- Preassembly: Unit is wired at the factory and (if applicable) plumbed to a junction box.
Specifications
- Conveyor: 60ʺ, 72ʺ, or 84ʺ wide reversing Power Live Roller (PLR) conveyor.
- Transition Sections: Match the adjoining conveyor’s width; non-power or chain-assisted by the adjoining powered conveyor.
- Pivot Post: Center floor-mounted with heavy-duty flange-mount bearings.
- Support Wheels: Five 6ʺ dia. monothane-tread wheels riding on the floor; surface must be smooth and level.
- Rotational Drive System: One 8ʺ dia. rubber drive wheel (90 durometer) on a pivoting drive base with captivated air mount, powered by a 1 HP totally enclosed, industrial-rated 1750 RPM brakemotor on an in-line reducer (grease-filled, maintenance-free for two years), located in the device’s side pod for easy access.
- Device Height: 12ʺ TOR minimum, with extensions available for other heights.
- Rotational Speed: 45 or 60 FPM available; variable-speed drive optional.
- Capacity: 5,000 lbs. maximum.
- Voltage: 230/460 volt, 3 phase, 60 hertz with 115 volt single-phase control voltage.
- Optional Integral Chain Transfer: Available on 10ʹ diameter only.
FAQs
Q: What does a power rotating device (PRD) do?
A: The PRD rotates each load to a precise, programmed orientation as it moves through the line under automatic control — squaring product for stacking, orienting cartons, or rotating loads for interlocked pallet patterns.
Q: How is the PRD different from a turntable?
A: A turntable primarily redirects conveyor flow direction. The PRD is purpose-built for precise, automated product rotation within palletizing and packaging sequences, where orientation accuracy matters.
Q: Is the PRD built in the USA?
A: Yes. Innoveyance engineers, manufactures, and services the Power Rotating Device in the United States.
