Modular VRC Systems

Wildeck’s Delta™ Vertical Reciprocating Conveyor (Modular VRC Systems) are a safe and reliable way to transfer your material from level to level. Large catwalk storage systems can use material lift technology to make box handling more proficient. The Delta VRC offers the lower cost of a hydraulic unit while incorporating the many benefits of a mechanical lift. The Delta ships in large sections and installs in less than a day; which minimizes costs and disruption to your operation. Wildeck’s unique and innovative Delta design provides a VRC that is not only durable and reliable, but extremely easy to maintain. When you look at a Delta VRC, you will notice Wildeck’s quality and many high value features that are designed in from the start.

Take a closer look at the standard features we include; you’ll quickly realize that mechanical VRC gives you more. With our electrical design capabilities, we can provide you with a complete customized material lift system that is either manually controlled, controlled by your conveyor controls or is fully automated controlling both the material lift and portions of your conveyor system.
