AMC Continuous Vertical Conveyors (CVC) are designed to transport packages, totes, and similar items between two floor levels. Due to their continuous operation, AMC CVCs can reach high throughput rates, on a small footprint. Compared with spiral or inclined conveyors, CVC conveyors take up less space and the conveyed product stays horizontal during transportation. This makes CVC conveyors suitable for a wide range of products including cartons, trays, and totes, but also many other products such as bags, luggage, kegs, rims, and tires.
AMCs Continuous Vertical Conveyors (CVC) are platform conveyors that use rubber block chains (RBC) with embedded high-strength cords instead of metal link chains. This assures clean operation with low noise and low vibration, especially at higher speeds, and it eliminates the need of lubrication or re-tensioning. The unique block chain is a low wear component and engages with drive wheels like a tooth belt or timing belt, without slippage.
Vertical conveyors can be designed as S-Conveyors (shown left) or as C-Conveyors with reversing flow and entry and exit on the same side. They are available with various platform widths and lengths, and with many design options, e.g. powder coated steel frame or stainless steel frame.
