VLM Sales & System Design
Vertical Lift Modules (VLMs) are automated systems that store and retrieve items vertically using trays that move up and down within a secure structure. The lift mechanism delivers items to an access point, reducing manual handling and saving floor space. This system speeds up operations, making it ideal for high-density storage environments.
Available in various sizes and configurations, VLMs can be customized to store different types of goods. With durable construction and low maintenance, they offer a cost-effective, long-term storage solution.
We provide a range of VLMs and offer system design, installation and support services tailored to your business needs.

How Does a VLM Work?
A VLM works by automatically storing and retrieving items within a series of trays or shelves arranged vertically. When an operator selects an item, the system retrieves it by moving the tray to a pick station. The system saves space and time by utilizing vertical space and reducing manual labor.

A Vertical Lift Module (VLM) is an automated storage and retrieval system (AS/RS) designed to store and retrieve items efficiently using vertical space. It consists of two columns of stacked trays or bins, and a shuttle system that moves vertically to deliver items to an operator at an access window.
Yes, VLMs can be integrated with Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) to streamline inventory management, tracking, and order fulfillment. This integration allows for better coordination between the VLM and other automated systems, improving overall warehouse efficiency.
VLMs generally require routine maintenance to ensure optimal performance, including checking the mechanical parts, such as belts, motors, and trays, as well as the electrical components. Regular inspections, lubrication, and software updates are essential to ensure the system runs smoothly and minimizes downtime.
One of the advantages of VLMs is that they use vertical space, allowing for high-density storage in a compact footprint. The exact space required depends on the height of the VLM and the number of trays or shelves. However, VLMs typically have a smaller footprint compared to traditional shelving or racking systems, making them an efficient storage solution in areas with limited floor space.
The load capacity of a VLM can vary depending on the specific model and configuration. Generally, VLMs can handle loads ranging from a few pounds to several hundred pounds per tray. Some systems are designed for heavy-duty applications, while others are built for lighter, more delicate items. It’s important to select a VLM based on the size and weight of the items you intend to store.
