VRC Cantilever Lift

VRC cantilever lift features a carriage supported by two guide columns on one side. This configuration allows easy access from three sides of the VRC and supports three loading and unloading patterns: C-loading (loading and unloading from the front), Z-loading (loading and unloading from opposite sides), and 90-degree loading (loading from the front and unloading from the side). The cantilever configuration offers greater flexibility in loading and unloading, making it especially suitable for space-constrained areas and enabling easier handling of materials.

Specification

Maximum Load Capacity

  • Range: 1–5 tons
  • Key Point: Single-column cantilever design concentrates loads on one side, suitable for light to medium-duty materials (e.g., small machinery parts, boxes).

Platform Dimensions

  • Typical Size: 1–2.5 m (width) × 0.8–1.5 m (depth)
  • Key Point: Limited depth to avoid excessive cantilever moment; requires centered loading for stability.

Maximum Lift Height

  • Range: 3–15 m (vertical travel)
  • Key Point: Requires reinforcement (e.g., back braces) for heights >10 m; prone to lateral sway.

Cantilever Moment

  • Threshold: ≤2 kN·m (critical safety limit)
  • Key Point: Exceeding this risks structural deformation or tipping—strict load positioning is mandatory

Features

🔹  Easy access from three sides: The carriage is supported by guide columns on one side, providing operational access from three sides, making loading and unloading tasks more convenient.

🔹 Flexible loading and unloading options: Supports three loading and unloading patterns: C-loading (loading and unloading from the front), Z-loading (loading and unloading from opposite sides), and 90-degree loading (loading from the front and unloading from the side), adapting to various logistics needs.

🔹 Suitable for space-constrained areas: The cantilever configuration is ideal for areas with limited space, allowing for flexible handling of materials and improving operational efficiency.

🔹 Efficient vertical transportation: Efficiently and quickly transports materials between multiple floors, reducing the time and cost of vertical transportation.

The Material Handling Equipments in your industry

01
Alimentos e bebidas
We understand that the food & drink industry faces unique challenges relating to hygiene, temperature, the type of loads handled & all manner of regulatory requirements.

The option for stainless steel on all of our bespoke items allows the unit to be used in clean room environments such as food & drink manufacturing and pharmaceuticals.

02
Farmacêutico
Gradin has a wealth of experience working with Pharmaceutical companies to find solutions for their handling challenges which meet lifting regulations as well as the extremely stringent regulations of the pharmaceutical industry.

The Gradin goods lifts can be used to carry pallet loads of finished products or ingredients, or equipment, up and down from a mezzanine floor or second floor. The lift’s platform can be manufactured in stainless steel so it complies with regulations, is non-corrosive and can be washed.
03
Engineering & Manufacturing
Of all manual handling injuries in the manufacturing sector, it is estimated that approximately one-third are musculoskeletal injuries which occur when a person is carrying or lifting a heavy load.

With musculoskeletal injuries in mind, the following is a useful, but not exhaustive, list of situations that commonly arise in the manufacturing and engineering sectors during the production process:

• Repeated manipulation of the load at a distance from the trunk of the body.
• Repeated bending of the trunk to lift the load.
• A very large load that is difficult to grasp.
• Repeated handling of the load above shoulder height or at floor level.
• Lifting that involves twisting of the trunk.
• The load needs to be carried over a long distance through a cluttered or hazardous area.

When manual handling activities involve such risks of injury (particularly to the back) due to unfavourable ergonomic conditions, the basic principle is that the employer must take measures to reduce or eliminate the risk of injury.
04
Distribution, packaging & shipping
The distribution, packaging & shipping industry demands ergonomically designed work processes that are flexible, efficient & most importantly safe.

The Gradin goods lift is designed specifically to transport standard sized pallets from manufacturing, to and from storage on a mezzanine or first floor. If a standard specification doesn’t tick all your boxes, we also specialise in bespoke configurations, working collaboratively with you to ensure your end solution is perfect for your company, employees and products.
