Vertical Lift Modules (VLMs)

Vertical Lift Modules (VLMs) are automated storage systems that efficiently store and retrieve inventory vertically within a tall cabinet-like structure. They consist of stacked trays or carriers that move vertically and horizontally, bringing items directly to an operator at a retrieval station. This design maximizes space, improves picking speed, and reduces manual effort. VLMs are commonly used in warehouses and distribution centers to streamline inventory management, reduce errors, and optimize workflow by securely housing a wide variety of products in a compact footprint.
