Vertical reciprocating conveyor frequently asked questions

01
What is a vertical reciprocating conveyor?
A goods lift is a mechanical system designed for the vertical transportation of materials between floors. Typically used to move items between the ground floor and and upper levels, these lifts are essential in environments where storage and workflow depend on multi-level access.

In environments where floor space is limited, goods lifts play a vital role in maximizing the use of available square footage. Warehouses and factories often need to expand their storage capacity without physically expanding the building. By allowing for the vertical stacking and storage of goods on upper levels, these lifts make it possible to utilise the often-underused overhead space.
This not only increases storage capacity but also helps streamline the workflow ensuring smoother operations
02
Does installing a vertical reciprocating conveyor require structural changes?

Installing a Vertical Reciprocating Conveyor (VRC) may require structural modifications, depending on its design, capacity, and installation environment. Below is a professional analysis:

Structural Requirements for VRC Installation

Floor Reinforcement

  • Light-duty VRCs (<1,000 lbs/450 kg): May only need localized floor strengthening (e.g., steel plates or cross-bracing).
  • Heavy-duty VRCs (>2,000 lbs/900 kg): Require concrete footings or steel I-beam supports to safely distribute loads (in accordance with ANSI/ASME B20.1).

Vertical Shaft Considerations

  • Guided Systems: Need structural alignment with building columns or dedicated steel frameworks for guide rails.
  • Clear Height: Minimum overhead clearance (typically 12–18 inches above the travel path) must be maintained.
03
What is the maximum weight for a VRC?
VRC Type Standard Capacity Range Maximum Capacity*
Standard Industrial VRC 1,000 – 20,000 lbs
(450 – 9,000 kg)		 50,000 lbs
(22,680 kg)
Hydraulic VRC 5,000 – 30,000 lbs
(2,270 – 13,600 kg)		 100,000 lbs
(45,360 kg)

How much does a VRC cost?

The above represents the average market prices for VRCs and does not reflect Gradin’s pricing. For specific pricing, please consult our professional team.

VRC Type Capacity Range Base Price Range* Key Cost Drivers
Standard Electric VRC 1,000-5,000 lbs
(450-2,270 kg)		 $15,000 – $35,000 Platform size, lift height, control system
Hydraulic Industrial VRC 5,000-20,000 lbs
(2,270-9,070 kg)		 $40,000 – $85,000 Hose/pump capacity, structural reinforcements
Custom Heavy-Duty VRC 20,000-100,000+ lbs
(9,070-45,360+ kg)		 $90,000 – $250,000+ Specialized guides, explosion-proofing, automation

Critical Cost Components:

  • ✓ Drive System: Electric (15% cheaper) vs Hydraulic (higher duty cycles)
  • ✓ Lift Height: Adds $800-$1,500 per additional floor (≥10 ft/3m)
  • ✓ Controls: Basic pendant ($1.5k) vs PLC automation ($8k-$15k)
  • ✓ Safety Features: ANSI-compliant gates (+$3k), light curtains (+$4.5k)
