Vertical Lift Modules

Vertical Lift Modules (VLMs) are fully automated storage systems that allow for minimal space impact by taking up vertical space, which is otherwise difficult to access. Vertical Lift Modules,  also known as Vertical Lift Systems or Vertical Carousels, use an inserter/extractor within the unit which locates the desired stored tray. VLM storage systems are able to store a large inventory securely while delivering the goods to your operators quickly and easily. Not only does this greatly reduce the time it takes to pick orders, but the automated system also reduces the amount of picking errors. Vertical Lift Modules have many useful applications and can cater to a diverse set of industries. Shelves can be adjusted by height to accommodate different sizes, so you have no unused space. Vertical Lift Storage Systems can also be configured to the unique specifications of your warehouse or facility. We have three types of VLMs; the Modula Lift, the Modula Slim and the Modula OnePick.

The Modula Lift is the ideal storage solution for industrial products, components and spare parts for all possible environments and industries. You can store almost any type of equipment on the shelves such as carton boxes, plastic moulds, automotive parts and manufacturing supplies. It is tough as nails with a throughput of up to 130 trays per hour, and a tray payload capacity of up to 2,200 lbs. These Vertical Lift Systems have the capability to reduce space requirements by up to 90%, while increasing speed, efficiency and accuracy of picking operations.

The Modula Slim is the most compact VLM on the market. The Modula slim can store many different types of materials and products including containers (boxes, bins, cartons, and cases), small items, spare parts, coils, bottles, loose material and more. This solution is perfect for warehouses with limited floor space, and with its compact nature, the Modula Slim only requires 32.29 square feet of floor space. The Modula Slim is built on a pre-assembled-based module that ships quickly, so you can have your automated picking system up and running as soon as possible. It’s also easy to bring online and connect with your company’s existing inventory management systems.
