Vertical conveyor by KAPELOU
High-speed vertical KAPELOU conveyor — the best investment to boost your warehouse efficiency
Do you have a mezzanine floor in your warehouse facility that is used to store tens of thousands of SKUs (i.e. stock keeping units)? Do you need to organize sorting of goods between different levels, or to lower goods for processing and lift them for storing? We can offer an effective solution, which will also eliminate the need for routine operations and hard physical labour.
KAPELOU has launched in-house production of automated vertical conveyors for boxes (box elevators) to gain control over the entire production process and manufacturing time of the equipment, as well as to ensure superior quality of the conveying systems.
The box elevator can handle a wide variety of packages: boxes, cartons, trays, bags, cans.
The box elevator gently transports goods in an upright position. Automatic controls ensure accurate positioning of the carriage, smooth loading and unloading of boxes, which completely secures the goods against any damage or deformation.
Compact, low-noise and reliable conveyor for transporting items with a weight up to 50 kg between platform levels.
Modular design enables integration into the warehouse environment and ensures high throughput capacity.
The KAPELOU vertical conveyor is assembled just like a children’s construction set, so it can be installed in any premise without dismantling the roof and can be easily adapted to the workspace. This way installation of the vertical conveyor takes minimum time, and delivery of modules involves the lowest possible shipping costs.
Robust warehouse elevator for transporting items between platform levels. Suitable for lifting and lowering items with a weight up to 50 kg.
Goods to be transported are loaded to and unloaded from the elevator only through a motor-driven roller table for boxes.
Main design features of the KAPELOU vertical conveyor
The elevator structure made of lightweight profile with increased number of stiffeners withstands high loads and twisting forces. Key advantages:

Why install a conveyor system in a warehouse?
In warehouses and logistics centres, where multi-level storage systems are installed, cartons and totes need to be constantly moved between levels. The common and versatile forklifts and pallet trucks are not always able to cope with this task and provide for lifting and lowering between levels. A goods lift for the warehouse provides a remedy. The mechanism can move up to 2000 totes per hour, is easy to maintain and can replace other equipment in the warehouse. KAPELOU offers high productivity solutions for warehouses.
The installation of the vertical conveyor solves several problems at the same time:
- ensures rapid movement of goods between levels of a warehouse mezzanine. In large complexes, you can set up several such systems to increase efficiency;
- reduces staff workload: staff no longer have to carry the goods containers themselves or stack them on pallets to use a conventional lift;
- speeds up the process of sorting goods for storage or dispatch;
- works with all types of containers – from cans to crates to corrugated boxes.
The vertical conveyor adapts easily to the work area and is installed quickly. You do not need to dismantle the mezzanine or the shelves before installation.
The freight lift from our production is fully automated. This allows the unit to transport the load precisely and without sudden jerks to avoid damage to the container and the product itself.
