Package Handling Lifts/
Series CVC Specifications

GENERAL

Each CVC is custom built to accommodate load size and delivery rate required. Delivery rate or Throughput (loads per minute) is based on platform (carrier) spacing and belt speed. Minimum platform spacing is a function of the load length and load height.

Pflow will work with you to optimize the equipment to your specific need. Generally a lower belt speed will enhance operation and equipment life. When possible, add platforms to achieve required throughput instead of increasing belt speed.
