What are Circulating Vertical Conveyors

The CycleLift Pro 400 is a continuous vertical conveyor that offers an unexpectedly low price compared to traditional discontinuous conveyors. This modular system can achieve a throughput of up to 2,200 products per hour, making it highly efficient for material handling.

Circulating Vertical Conveyors are available in two models:

For articles of different sizes or shapes, such as various carton sizes

For identically-sized articles like standard totes

Key Features

Product video
  • Modular Design: The Prorunner CycleLift Pro 400‘s modular setup allows for smaller shipment volumes, reducing shipping costs.
  • Versatile Applications: It can transport a wide range of products, including boxes, cases, trays, and bags, effortlessly and quickly between different floors.

Conveyor Sections

Carriers
Carriers are fork-type platforms that transport products. They are connected to two Rubber Block Chains, ensuring smooth and stable movement throughout the conveyor.

Rubber Block Chains
GRADIN’s Rubber Block Chains have high-tensile steel cables inside, allowing for lubrication- and maintenance-free operation. This design provides quiet and clean long-term performance. Different rubber compounds are available for various environments.

Retractable Feed Conveyors
These conveyors feed material on the upward side and discharge it on the downward side, ensuring a clean transfer from horizontal to vertical transport. The feed conveyor starts and stops automatically as needed.

Casings
Casings are available in welded painted carbon steel or stainless steel frames. Carbon steel options can be powder-coated or painted for durability and easy cleaning.

Cladding
Cladding can be made from perforated aluminum or steel sheets, protecting both the conveyor and products while ensuring a safe work environment.

Maintenance Features
All GRADIN circulating vertical conveyors have large servicing and monitoring openings and removable covers for easy maintenance.

This design makes GRADIN vertical conveyors efficient, safe, and easy to maintain, suitable for various material handling applications.
