Everything You Need to Know About Vertical Lift Modules (VLMs)
A Vertical Lift Module (VLM) is an automated storage and retrieval system that uses vertically arranged trays within a secure, enclosed unit. It optimizes warehouse space and efficiency by delivering items directly to the operator at an ergonomic height, reducing the need for manual searching and movement.
The cost of a Vertical Lift Module (VLM) depends on factors like size, features, load capacity, and customization. It's best to get a tailored quote based on your specific needs.
Vertical Lift Modules (VLMs) retrieve trays automatically and range from 8 to 98 feet tall, while Vertical Carousels rotate shelves in a loop and range from 7 to 32 feet tall. Vertical Lift Machines suit taller spaces, while carousels are ideal for shorter ceilings and frequent retrieval.
VLM software manages Vertical Lift Modules by controlling inventory, tracking items, and optimizing storage and retrieval processes for improved efficiency and accuracy.
Vertical Lift Modules (VLMs) work by automatically retrieving trays from vertical storage using an elevator mechanism, delivering them to the operator at an ergonomic access point for efficient picking and storage.
Vertical Lift Machines (VLMs) are used for storing and retrieving items in warehouses, factories, and distribution centers, improving space utilization, efficiency, and accuracy in inventory management.
Unlocking the Power of a Vertical Lift Module
- Smart Storage The Modula Vertical Lift Systems stores items in trays within a secure enclosed unit, using the full height of your facility – maximizing your facility’s full vertical potential. By eliminating aisles, the Vertical Lift System increases storage capacity without expanding your footprint.
- Effortless Retrieval The Modula VLM features a user-friendly interface that lets staff easily input item picking details, while the system automatically delivers items at an ergonomic retrieval height – for quicker access and enhanced comfort.
- Goods-to-Person Efficiency The Modula Vertical Lift System follows the Goods-to-Person principle; delivering the right item to the right person at the right height, reducing search time, improving accuracy, and boosting productivity.
