VRC STRADDLE LIFT
The straddle-type lifting platform is a structurally unique and widely used vertical material handling equipment. Its core characteristic lies in the lifting assembly (such as the load platform or fork arms) straddling a fixed mast or rail frame during operation, distinguishing it from traditional overhead or chain-driven lifts. This design grants it significant advantages including high stability, excellent space utilization, and flexible operation. It is particularly suited for scenarios requiring efficient, precise lifting and transfer of heavy-duty, large-sized, or regularly shaped goods within confined spaces.

🔹Excellent structural stability: Adopting “straddle” rigid rail/column design, the lifting mechanism (loading platform/fork arm) closely rides on the frame. Extremely smooth operation, strong anti-lateral force, no shaking or tilting.
🔹Extremely high space utilization: Greatly save the working access and safety space, which is the ideal solution for vertical transportation in narrow space (such as production line gap, entrance/exit of three-dimensional warehouse, limited plant).
🔹Powerful loading capacity: It can be designed to carry heavy and large goods from several tons to tens of tons, and the loading capacity is significantly better than that of the same size of suspended or chain hoist.
🔹Precise operation and control: Millimeter-level positioning accuracy and smooth start/stop, easy to integrate with automated production lines or storage systems.

Options & Accessories
🔹VRC straddle lift is widely used in warehousing and logistics, manufacturing plants, retail and wholesale, automotive, food and pharmaceuticals, electronics and semiconductors, airport sorting centers, and commercial buildings. It efficiently and safely transports various goods between multiple floors, optimizing logistics processes and improving operational efficiency, making it especially suitable for applications requiring high load capacity and stability.
🔹The VRC straddle lift offers customized services to meet various application requirements. The platform size, load capacity, and lift height can be tailored according to the specific operational needs, ensuring optimal compatibility. Additionally, the lift supports multiple loading and unloading options, including C-loading (same-side entry and exit) and Z-loading (front-to-rear entry and exit), providing flexibility for different logistics processes and enhancing operational efficiency.

The Reach 25 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.
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.
The Reach 25 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.
