How Vertical Lift Modules Work
Vertical Lift Modules (VLMs) store items in trays stacked vertically and automatically deliver them to an operator at an ergonomic height. Trays are positioned just above one another to optimize space, and a computerized control system retrieves the right tray based on the operator’s request.
VLMs connect to ERP systems and can follow preprogrammed pick lists, guided by LED light bars. Safety features like light curtains help protect operators during retrieval. Once an item is picked, trays return to their original position to keep storage organized and efficient.
