'''Reciprocating elevators''' are capable of transferring unit loads between various levels or multiple levels and can be either chain driven or pneumatically operated depending on load and speed. These specially designed units convey various dimensioned products with individual loads of up to 2000kg with lifting heights of over 8 metres. | |||
==Features== | |||
* Utilizes gravity-actuated carrier to lowering loads, where the load overcomes the magnitude of a counterweight | |||
* Can only be used to lower a load | |||
* Alternative to a chute conveyor for vertical "drops" when load is fragile and/or space is limited | |||
* Can be manually or automatically loaded and/or controlled and can interface with horizontal conveyors | |||
