folding car turntableThe Pack-Man is the world’s only foolproof folding turntable. We engineered all the necessary installation steps into this exclusive product. No assembly or tools are required to manage the Pack-Man. In only two minutes, an unskilled laborer installs the turntable by unfolding and plugging it into a power source. It’s that simple for users – unfold, plug and spin.

Aside from its folding capability, the Pack-Man’s other signature feature is that it rolls through any standard doorway. The turntable consists of a sturdy rolling aluminum base with self-retracting wheels. The base also supports its folding track and provides the conversion platform for its unique ability.

The Pack-Man rotates small to mid-sized vehicles 0 to 1 revolutions per minute and provides full speed adjustment in both forward and reverse. It comes in the following stock sizes: 8′, 10′, 12′. and 14′ diameter and is purpose built to custom sizes.
