RCH 285 – Pallet Lift Up To 600kg

RCH1

Product Overview

Nerak’s standard pallet lifts are designed for the vertical transport of palletised loads in high-throughput automated and semi-automated environments. Suitable for handling pallets, stillages and bulk bags, these systems provide reliable and consistent movement between levels within warehouse and production operations.

The system supports loads of up to 600kg and lift heights of up to 40 metres, making it well suited to multi-level facilities where efficient vertical movement is required. A range of infeed and discharge configurations allows the lift to be integrated into existing material handling systems or specified as a stand-alone pallet lift system.

Engineered for continuous operation, Nerak pallet lifts are designed to deliver stable load handling while maintaining throughput across demanding applications. The robust design supports long-term reliability with reduced maintenance requirements, helping to minimise operational downtime.

All systems utilise Nerak’s proprietary rubber chain technology, eliminating the need for frequent lubrication and reducing mechanical wear. This contributes to lower maintenance costs and consistent performance over time.

As a UK manufacturer, Nerak provides fully engineered pallet lifts, from initial system design through to manufacture, installation and commissioning, ensuring each solution is tailored to the specific requirements of the application.

FAQs

What is the RCH 285 pallet lift used for?

The RCH 285 pallet lift is used to move pallets and other large unit loads safely between floors in warehouses, production plants and distribution centres. It provides reliable vertical pallet movement and can reduce reliance on forklifts or manual handling between levels.

What load weight can the standard pallet lift handle?

The standard RCH Series pallet lift can typically handle pallet loads up to 1,000kg. This makes it suitable for many common palletised goods used in warehousing, manufacturing and distribution environments.

Is the standard pallet lift suitable for automated pallet handling?

Yes, the standard pallet lift is suitable for automated pallet handling. It can be integrated with conveyors and other handling equipment to move palletised loads between levels as part of a wider automated system.

Can the standard pallet lift be used in multi-level facilities?

Yes, the standard pallet lift can be used in multi-level facilities. It is designed to move pallets safely and reliably between two or more floors, depending on the building layout, lift height and transfer points required.
