VRC, one of the freight lifts used to move products and other goods from one level to another. Also called cargo lift or goods lift.

Below are the application of Quentin goods lift. Hope you would find it helpful.

1. Areas of Use

1.1 Mezzanines: With the increased usage of vertical space in buildings today, vertical conveyors are an excellent choice for moving materials from first floor level to the mezzanine level. Vertical goods lift’s may be installed either along the edge of a mezzanine or through a hole cut in the mezzanine floor depending on the user’s preference and the handling requirements.  This precludes the need to wait for, and tie up, expensive portable equipment for placing materials directly on the mezzanine or in a staging area.

1.2 Multi-floor Buildings: With the increased costs of land and building construction, new companies for their start-up expansion are utilizing older buildings. The use of a vertical goods lift can streamline a manufacturing or warehousing operation in this type of facility and make it a less expensive, productive facility. The addition of a vertical goods lift can relieve the burden of moving materials and cargo on an existing elevator thus freeing up the elevator for the purpose it was intended, moving people. The vertical goods lift can also be strategically located within the building to provide vertical transportation of goods or materials within close proximity of the production or storage area or it can be installed on the outside wall of the building if space is not available inside.

1.3 Existing Shaft: A vertical goods lift may be installed in an existing shaft if the application requires moving only goods or materials and not personnel.

1.4 Automated Systems: The platform of a vertical goods lift may be equipped with a powered roller conveyor assembly, a gravity conveyor with a drop lock assembly, a chain transfer conveyor assembly, a turntable device and/or a pusher assembly and can interface with conveyor lines, single or multi-level rack system, or a transport. The controls can be so designed such that the carriage or carrier can receive the load automatically, deliver products to a pre-selected destination and then return to its original position automatically.

2. Types of Use

2.1 Manual loading and unloading of boxes, cartons, and various other materials.

2.2 Pallet loads using pallet hand trucks, motorized pallet trucks, or forklift trucks. Note the vertical good lift’s capacity when loading and unloading with heavy loading devices. The lift must be designed and installed to tolerate the load plus the loading device.

2.3 Four wheeled carts, hand trucks, wheeled bin trucks, wheeled trash trucks, gondolas, etc.

2.4 Automated loading with the use of gravity, chain transfer sections or powered conveyors, turntables, pushers, etc. for the handling of pallet or slip sheet loads into or out of storage facilities, multilevel small order picking operations, for ceiling level transportation of products from one facility to another, and various other applications where multilevel continual flow is required and minimum floor usage is a requirement.

2.5 The transfer of Automatic Guided Vehicles (AGV’s) from one floor level to another.
