Wildeck introduces new safety LiftLok™ System for VRCs (Vertical Reciprocating Conveyors)
Passcode-protected digital keypad or key switch options prevent lift operation by unauthorized personnel
Material handling equipment and safety products manufacturer, Wildeck, Inc., has introduced a new LiftLok™ VRC safety system to prevent lift operation by untrained or unauthorized personnel. A basic key switch or a more feature rich 10-key pushbutton digital keypad can be added to any Wildeck mechanical or hydraulically-operated VRC (Vertical Reciprocating Conveyor). Two keys are provided with the basic LiftLok™ keyed system while authorized lift operators can enter a unique 4-digit user/passcode, or swipe their pre-programmed proximity credentials tag (key fob) on the LiftLok™ digital keypad to enable lift operation.
According to Hubert Schlegel, Director of Marketing at Wildeck, “Safety remains a top concern in manufacturing facilities, warehouses, and distribution centers nationwide and Wildeck is pleased to offer this easy-to-use VRC operator control device. The affordable LiftLok™ key switch or LiftLok™ keypad system will ensure that only properly trained personnel can operate a material lift in their facility. Besides main floor call/send control box installation, the LiftLok™ safety device can be included with call/send VRC control stations at every level.”
