What is an Automated Vertical Carousel?

An Automated Vertical Carousel is a solution that resembles a giant customized vending machine for your tools, parts, and/or inventory.  This solution takes storage and literally stands it on it’s head, “going vertical,” saving floor and airspace many times over.  These systems are cost-efficient, and have a 99.8% up-time reliability rating.

Increased Productivity for Fast Payback

  • Store More in Less Space – By utilizing vertical space up to 40 feet high, the Automated Vertical Lift storage systems pack more high-density storage capacity per cubic foot than other types of systems on the market. Store up to 40 sections of shelving in each Vertical Lift Module.
  • Higher Through-put – Increase through-put by up to 250%. Multiple Automated Vertical Carousels offer pick rates of up to 120 line items per hour versus 25-40 line items per hour for static shelving. A single worker can be as productive as three workers picking from static shelving. Software automatically queues orders, batches picks, and retrieves the items for picking, dramatically reducing idle time for operators.
  • Ergonomics – By presenting the items to the operator at a comfortable counter height, all climbing, reaching, and bending to pick from multiple levels is eliminated, increasing worker safety, productivity, and satisfaction.
  • Security and Control – Automated Vertical Carousels offer a level of security that’s simply not possible with other types of storage systems. Unlike aisles of unprotected open bins, an Automated Vertical Carousel can be locked down completely. From simple lockable doors to advanced access systems such as badge scanners, RFID, biometric systems and video monitoring, there is a security system to meet even the most stringent requirements.
  • Increased Accuracy – Picking accuracy is improved up to 99+% by using our paperless picking systems with bar code item verification. Items are brought to the picker at an ergonomic level with proper lighting to improve visibility and correctness of item picking.
