The RKG-5 Tilt & Package Station is designed to receive entry door units in a vertical orientation from the RKG-4, and gently lower them to a horizontal position.

The RKG-5 is designed with non-marking slide plates on the top and bottom for the brick mold to slide on. The sill plate on the machine is equipped with ball bearing wheels. These wheels support the weight of the door unit so one operator can safely move the door unit onto this station. After the door unit is on the machine, the operator can easily tilt it to a horizontal position with the aid of a hydraulic cylinder.

In this position the operator can apply the inside stops to the sidelight panels and any necessary packaging to the inside of the door unit. The completed door unit can then be tilted back to vertical so it can be rolled off this station.

A three-phase electric supply, in addition to the air supply, must be provided for the RKG-5.

The standard RKG-5 will accommodate doors 6’8” high and doors that vary in width from 2’6” to 3’0”.

With the 8’0” door capacity option, this station can be set up to accommodate doors that vary in height from 6’8” to 8’0”. The RKG-5 will accommodate all jamb widths.
