Food Manufacturing & Processing Vertical Reciprocating Conveyors
Vertical reciprocating conveyors (VRCs) are a safe and efficient way to transport large, heavy loads between two or more levels.
VRCs are essential tools for food manufacturing and processing facilities because they quickly, easily, and safely move heavy items between two or more floor levels.
No matter the work environment — extreme heat, sub-zero temperatures, or wash-down environments — PFlow can design and manufacture a VRC for your specific application, no matter how specialized.
PFlow Industries is the pioneer and leading manufacturer of vertical reciprocating conveyors, and we can help you improve your food manufacturing operations with a VRC.
Benefits of PFlow Vertical Reciprocating Conveyors
With our VRCs, you can handle and move loads of multiple pallets, oversized materials, and heavy machinery safely and efficiently. Here are some of the many benefits of a VRC in food manufacturing and processing operations:
- Safely and efficiently move materials to improve operations
- Maximize floor space by creating access to previously inaccessible vertical space
- Engineered for your specific lifting needs
- Advanced safety features built into all lifts prevent costly accidents
- Less costly to install, operate, and maintain than elevators
- Made in the USA with performance and reliability you can trust
Our VRCs conform to ASME B20.1 Safety Standards for Conveyors and come with guaranteed code approval in every state.
PFlow VRCs are designed for each customer’s specific lifting application. As the VRC industry founder, PFlow has unparalleled experience in the VRC industry and the technical know-how to solve your vertical lifting challenges.
