Vertical lift systems and spiral conveyors move goods between levels without consuming floor space. Lifts provide precise vertical positioning at defined heights. Spirals create a continuous flow that carries cartons or totes upward or downward when an incline would take too much room. Both options are part of ARCO’s vertical conveyor solutions and can be tailored to your product and environment.
In operation, the lift platform or spiral infeed synchronizes with upstream conveyors under PLC control. Safety guarding, controlled acceleration and accurate stops keep handling predictable. ARCO integrates these modules with existing belts and roller sections, and positions pallet lifts or carton spirals where they add the most value in the line. The result is clean handover between levels and stable routing across shifts.
The added value is capacity in a compact footprint and easier layouts. Spirals are well suited to tight spaces and provide steady throughput with minimal supervision. Lifts fit easily into new or existing lines and support reliable vertical moves with low maintenance. ARCO engineers the right combination so your system gains height without sacrificing flow.
Get in contactKey features of vertical lift systems & spirals
ARCO’s vertical lift systems and spiral conveyors provide efficient transport between different levels within your logistics or production environment. Each setup is engineered for reliable performance and compact design. The systems handle bins, crates, boxes, trays, and bags while keeping every product upright to prevent deformation.
How vertical lift systems & spirals work in practice
In practice, vertical lift systems and spirals move cartons, totes, or crates between levels with a compact footprint. A lift indexes to the target height, secures the load, then hands off cleanly to the next conveyor for reliable routing. A spiral provides continuous vertical flow when space is tight or an incline would be too long, which keeps the layout simple and capacity high. ARCO selects the right vertical module for your product mix and ties it into the line controls, so infeed, stops, and discharge stay synchronized across shifts. Integration in new or existing lines is straightforward thanks to the dedicated vertical conveyor portfolio.
