Who ranks for “vertical lift module”

A vertical lift module (VLM) is an enclosed, automated storage and retrieval system that uses two internal columns of trays and a central elevator mechanism to deliver items directly to an operator.

How a Vertical Lift Module Works

Goods-to-Person Delivery: An internal extractor (like an elevator) moves vertically to pick a specific storage tray and bring it to an ergonomic access window. Height Scanning: Each time a tray is put away, a sensor measures the height of the items on it, and the system automatically stores it in the best slot to save space. Space Savings: VLMs can reclaim up to 85% to 90% of floor space by using high ceilings instead of wide aisles.
