Current product movement included the labor-intensive process of loading, unloading and transporting pallets via tractor-trailer truck. Additional challenges included a significant elevation change between buildings. Read more of our case study below. The Industry/Company This food wholesaler supplies products such as canned goods and water to national food chains including Publix and Krogers. The Product/Solution Conveyors & Drives’ provided a conveyor system including a heavy-duty continuous vertical lift designed to handle up to (5) pallets per minute. Continuously transporting pallets weighing up to 3,000 lbs, the vertical lift has (5) platforms. Prior to the lift, a feed conveyor automatically synchronizes pallet release to the lift.
