Published: 01/27/2023

Acquiring a piece of new lifting equipment is more than a purchase; it’s a significant investment in your business. And having a clear understanding of the expected return on that investment is an important factor. The acquisition will likely address a current need, but it should also yield long-term benefits.

That’s one of the reasons why purchasing an Autoquip VRC (Vertical Reciprocating Conveyor) is such a smart decision. VRCs continue to prove their value as the market’s most versatile, reliable, and durable lift. And regardless of your industry, installing a VRC can directly and consistently impact your bottom line.

ROI: Looking Beyond The Financials

When business leaders think of ROI, the primary focus is typically on financial data. Tangible benefits based on increased profits and productivity, contrasted with decreased costs and inefficiencies, are easily demonstrated and measurable. But don’t forget the intangible benefits that contribute to your overall ROI over the long term.

Adding an Autoquip VRC can help you build a working environment where employees can do their best work and excel. Having the right (and best!) equipment for the job contributes to higher production rates, improved employee morale, and helps you cultivate a thriving workplace culture. And improved performance enables you to deliver higher quality products and services that create satisfied customers who are loyal to your brand.

Safeguarding Your Most Important Asset

Safety is the first priority when moving heavy loads between floors. Autoquip VRCs provide game-changing results while protecting employees from potential injury. And we can eliminate the inherent risks created by using ladders and forklifts. Whether you choose a mechanical or hydraulic model, our team of engineers and designers will work with you to customize a VRC based on your requirements.

These hardworking lifts can take on a variety of applications. Due to their versatility, providing advanced safeguards is an important consideration. We offer multiple safety options, including photo eyes, limit switches, velocity fuses, safety guards and handrails, and audible and visual alarms, all designed to prevent issues.

A huge component of safety revolves around control. We help you elevate protection to the next level with AQ Connect, our intelligent control panel, and monitoring solution. AQ Connect keeps you informed regarding lift status, manages maintenance activities, runs self-diagnostics, and performs programmable tasks. AQ Connect completes your lift’s safety profile by generating alerts via an onboard HMI display, routing them to an optional location, or sending them to your mobile device. AQ Connect is a standard feature on all of our VRCs; it provides the intel you need to protect your team and your investment.

Investing In Your Future 

Installing an Autoquip VRC delivers multiple cost-effective benefits that can optimize the way you do business. Thanks to their reliability, you’ll see less downtime and make fewer service calls. Their agility allows your team to maximize floor and overhead space, making room for more inventory and increased revenue. And with the variety of custom features we offer, you can provide a new standard of operations that promotes safety, morale, efficiency, and customer retention.

Autoquip has been leading the lift industry for over 75 years. We’re successful because we understand the unique needs of industries like yours. We’re all about finding creative solutions that solve specific problems. By working together, we can help you realize a positive ROI for many years to come.
