Used Vertical Reciprocating Conveyor

Used Vertical Lifts, also known as vertical reciprocating conveyors (VRC) or freight elevators, are ideal for moving heavy loads from one level to another without an incline conveyor or elevator. Vertical reciprocating conveyors can carry materials of various types, weights, and sizes of products to lofts, mezzanines, and upper stories within the warehouses, factories, industrial plants, and other industrial facilities. Vertical lifts would effortlessly move pallets, cartons, and more helping to increase overall productivity within the facility. These vertical lifts will eliminate wasted floor space and increase pick rates allowing for more efficient warehouse operations. These types of lifts are a great way to increase revenue through higher proficiency and productivity, while keeping workers safe.

What are Vertical Reciprocating Conveyors? Vertical lifts or reciprocating conveyors are used to move materials in factories, warehouses, distribution centers, or any other industrial setting where products must move from one level to another. They are not considered elevators and are exempt from the national elevator code. Vertical reciprocating conveyors provide efficient and safe access to and from mezzanines, balconies, or in between floors of a multiple story building.

Vertical lifts are either fully automated or manually operated. Both styles feature rotating shelves and a chain driven carriage. Automated vertical reciprocating conveyors can be programmed for advanced functions like inventory management and control, and they also have a manual override for when hand picking is necessary.

Major benefits of Used Vertical Reciprocating Conveyor: Can be installed in an existing building, less costly and easier to install than traditional elevators, can be installed in an unused elevator shaft, can save up to 70% more floor space when compared to traditional storage methods, keeps items safe and secure, provides convenient access to items in storage.
