Goods and passenger lifts for distribution centers

Efficient lift solutions with over 2000 kg lifting capacity

Modern distribution centers are complex logistics ecosystems where the efficiency of transport processes determines the competitiveness of the entire supply chain. Goods and passenger lifts with high lifting capacity are a key element of the infrastructure, enabling the efficient transport of heavy loads between different levels of the facility while maintaining the highest standards of safety and energy efficiency.

Logistical challenges of modern distribution centers

Modern distribution centers face a number of challenges that directly influence the choice of the right elevator system:

Growing demand for energy-efficient solutions

Sustainable development and carbon footprint reduction are becoming a priority in logistics. Techwind lifts use energy-efficient drive systems with energy recovery during braking, which significantly reduces operating costs and environmental impact.

The need for rapid infrastructure scaling

Flexibility in adapting infrastructure to changing business needs is crucial. Techwind’s range of modular lift systems, also available as self-assembly kits, enables rapid implementation and modification as the center grows.

Self-assembly kits (Modular Kits)

In response to the growing demand for flexible and quickly deployable solutions, Techwind offers modular elevator kits for self-assembly, ideal for distribution centers requiring rapid implementation or frequent infrastructure modifications.

Advantages of flexible implementation

• Lower logistics costs – compact packaging and transport of components
• Possibility of phased expansion – scaling the system as the distribution center grows
• Reduced operational downtime – installation possible during normal facility operations

Installation process

Step by step:

1. Technical consultation and analysis of the facility’s logistics needs
2. System design and selection of appropriate modules
3. Preparation of technical documentation and installation instructions
4. Delivery of components in precisely labelled packages
5. Installation supervised by certified Techwind specialists
6. Load testing and system calibration
7. Staff training and handover of complete documentation

Technical support

Each modular kit comes with a comprehensive technical support package:

• Dedicated project engineer supervising the installation process
• Detailed technical documentation in digital and printed form
• Online library of video installation instructions available 24/7
• Technical support hotline during installation and commissioning
• Training program for the user’s technical staff
• Remote diagnostics and support during the warranty period

Service programmes for distribution centres

We offer dedicated service programs tailored to the specific needs of distribution centers, taking into account their continuous operation:

• Distribution Centre 24/7 – a program with a guaranteed response time of 2 hours, dedicated to facilities operating in continuous mode
• Predictive Care – an advanced program using IoT sensors to monitor the condition of the lift and predict potential failures
• Seasonal Support – intensified support during peak periods (e.g. holiday season)
• Remote Diagnostics – continuous monitoring and remote troubleshooting
• Staff Training – regular training for technical personnel in basic maintenance and diagnostics

Modernization of existing systems

Techwind offers comprehensive modernization program for existing lift systems, regardless of the original manufacturer:

Retrofit Program+

A specialized modernization program for older lift systems, including:

• Replacement of the drive system with an energy-efficient system with energy regeneration
• Modernization of control systems with WMS integration
• Reinforcement of the structure to increase the lifting capacity to 10,000 kg
• Implementation of advanced safety systems
• Digitization of monitoring and diagnostic systems

Case study: Distribution Centre in Lower Silesia

Main challenge

One of the largest e-commerce distribution centers in Poland, with an area of 50,000 m², needed an efficient vertical transport system capable of handling heavy loads between two floors while maintaining high throughput during peak periods.

Techwind solution

A system consisting of the following was implemented:

• 3 TPD-6000 series goods and passenger lifts with a lifting capacity of 6000 kg
• Integration with the existing WMS system
• Installation of a transport priority management system
• Implementation of energy-saving solutions with energy recovery
• 24/7 Distribution Centre service plan

Results

• 65% increase in vertical transport capacity
• 28% reduction in energy consumption compared to the previous system
• Shorter order fulfilment times
• Zero downtime during the holiday season (peak load)
• ROI achieved within 3.5 years
