The price of a three-story 2-ton freight elevator in a factory varies depending on the brand, configuration, and installation conditions, and is usually 100,000-300,000 yuan. This article starts from three aspects: price factors, configuration comparison, and purchase suggestions, and is accompanied by FAQs, cases, and authoritative quotes to provide readers with decision-making reference.
Factory three-story 2-ton freight elevator price overview
The price of a three-story 2-ton freight elevator in a factory is usually between 100,000 and 300,000 yuan, depending on the brand, configuration, material, installation difficulty and additional functions. Since the load capacity of 2 tons (2000kg) is a medium-sized freight elevator, the height of the three floors is generally about 12-18 meters, and the price is greatly affected by the car size, door opening method, control system, etc. This article analyzes the main price factors, configuration comparison, and purchase suggestions to help you make a reasonable budget.
Core factors affecting price
1. Loading capacity and lifting height
The load design of a 2-ton freight elevator must comply with the GB 7588-2003 standard. For every additional level of lifting height (about 4-6 meters), the cost of guide rails, wire ropes, motor power, etc. will increase accordingly. The lifting height of the third floor is usually 12-18 meters, which is within the normal range. If it exceeds 20 meters, reinforced parts must be customized, and the price will increase by 15%-20%.
2. Car size and material
The common dimensions of a standard 2-ton freight elevator car are 2.0m×2.0m (width×depth) or 2.4m×2.0m, with a height of 2.2m. The material is stainless steel or steel plate sprayed with plastic. The stainless steel car is about 3,000-5,000 yuan more expensive than ordinary steel plates. If special treatments such as anti-corrosion and dust-proofing are required, the cost will rise further.
3. Driving method
Freight elevators are usually traction drive or hydraulic drive. The traction type has a compact structure and is energy-saving, suitable for mid- to high-rise buildings, and costs about 120,000 to 250,000 yuan; the hydraulic type has a large load capacity, but is slow, and costs about 100,000 to 180,000 yuan. Traction type three-story 2-ton freight elevators are more common.
4. Control system and brand
The price range of domestic first-tier brands (such as Kangli, Guangri, Sio) is 120,000-200,000 yuan, and the price range of joint venture brands (such as Kone, Thyssenkrupp) is 200,000-300,000 yuan. PLC control system or frequency conversion speed regulation system can increase the cost by 10,000 to 20,000 yuan.
5. Installation and civil construction conditions
The installation cost accounts for about 15%-20% of the total price of the equipment, including scaffolding, hoisting, shaft rectification, etc. If the existing shaft meets the standards, the cost is lower; if a new shaft or renovation is required, an additional RMB 20,000 to RMB 50,000 will be added.

Suggestions and precautions for purchasing
First, clarify the usage scenario: if goods are frequent and heavy objects are large, you need to pay attention to the car size and door opening width (it is recommended to split the bi-fold door in the middle or open the side door). Second, pay attention to after-sales service: freight elevators are special equipment and require annual inspections. Choosing a brand with maintenance outlets can reduce long-term costs. Third, be wary of low-price traps: Products priced below 100,000 yuan may use second-hand parts or non-standard materials, posing safety risks. Fourth, the contract terms should indicate the warranty period (usually 12-18 months), response time, and additional cost items. After comprehensive consideration, it is recommended that the budget be set at 150,000-200,000 yuan, which is a reasonable price-performance ratio.
