Xilix Adjustable Cylinder Roller Support Fixture
Precision Support for Heavy-Duty Cylindrical Components

The Xilix Adjustable Cylinder Roller Support Fixture is a precision-engineered solution for safely rotating and supporting large cylindrical components up to 3.5 tons—such as rocket sections, tanks, wind towers, drums, and pipes. Designed to surpass traditional pipe rotators, tank turning rollers, and rotation positioners, this fixture offers superior control, stability, and customization.

A standout optional feature is the available motorized operator tablet, which enables precise part positioning with zero vibration during rotation. This makes it ideal for aerospace, energy, and heavy industrial applications where precision and safety are critical.

What Makes the Xilix Cylinder Roller Support Tool So Advanced?

It’s all about micro-level precision—the fixture allows XY directional adjustments accurate to 1/16 inch, ensuring exact alignment during operation.

Custom Engineering Without Limits

Xilix provides significant engineering expertise to every product. We offer full customization based on your project’s specifications—regardless of size or weight. This includes:

  • Custom roller diameters and durometers for optimal weight distribution

  • Smooth precision alignment in a vertical up/down, or horizontal left/right direction up to 1/16 inch.

  • Low weight-per-square-inch loading designs

  • Scalable configurations for both smaller and larger cylindrical parts

Need it bigger? Smaller? Heavier?
Xilix will engineer a tailored solution that performs with unmatched accuracy.

What Makes the Xilix Roller Support Fixture Stand Out from Other Pipe and Tank Adjustable Tools?

✓ Programmed Adjustable motorized controls improve operator accuracy, removing manual guesswork and reducing setup time.
✓ Designed for rolling long cylindrical parts such as rocket ship sections, tanks, pipes, and wind towers without the instability found in conventional roller systems.
✓ Spin freely rollers and frame construction dampen vibration and prevent surface damage during movement or rotation.
✓ Offers customized advanced functionality beyond typical pipe rotator rollers or tank turning fixtures, making it ideal for precision industries.

Key Features:

  • Adjustable curved support accommodates customized diameters similar to the 15 feet long by 4 feet wide (Banana For Scale), secure positioning of cylindrical parts, with a 3.5 ton capacity.
  • Motorized hand control tablet enables real-time repositioning up, down, left, and right movement with pinpoint accuracy, eliminating vibration during part rotation.
  • Optional powered rollers allow continuous 360-degree rolling freely and spinning for inspection or part preparation.
  • Custom engineered to specification to exceed the performance of turning rollers or traditional pipe and tank roller positioners by offering precise, ergonomic alignment capabilities.

Benefits / Advantages

Advantages of the Xilix Adjustable Cylinder Roller Support Fixture
