Automated Vertical Storage System (AVSS), also known as Vertical Lift Module (VLM), consists of two columns of trays with a mechanical inserter/extractor in the middle. The inserter/extractor moves up and down between the storage trays, automatically positioning and retrieving trays as needed, similar to an elevator with doors in the front and back. The Automated Vertical Storage System like sheet metal vertical lift is designed to improve warehouse operation efficiency, including enhancing warehouse area utilization, increasing picking efficiency, enhancing inventory control capabilities, improving accuracy, and improving working conditions.
A standard Automated Vertical Storage System is about 1.5 to 4.6 meters wide and 2.1 to 3 meters deep. Tray widths for storing inventory range from 1.2 meters to just over 4 meters, with depths from 0.6 meters to 0.9 meters. The maximum product height is slightly over 711.2 millimeters. (Ergonomics: The trays should not be too deep, otherwise operators cannot easily reach the items.)
The Automated Vertical Storage System can save up to 85% of floor space, providing the possibility to add other revenue-generating activities.
The Automated Vertical Storage System takes advantage of the vertical height of the equipment. The minimum height of an Automated Vertical Storage System is 2.4 meters, and the maximum height can reach up to 29.9 meters. The average height ranges between 10.7 meters and 13.7 meters.
The height of the machine should be determined based on the available height of your building, storage, and warehousing efficiency requirements.
The Automated Vertical Storage System can be equipped with trays, each capable of bearing a weight of 1,000 kilograms. For applications with larger loads, lifting auxiliary equipment can be added to the Automated Vertical Storage System.
Compared to traditional methods, the Automated Vertical Storage System has very high warehousing efficiency. Following the goods-to-person principle, items are directly moved to the operator. The operator sorts items at an ergonomic access point (the access point of the Automated Vertical Storage System). As the operator picks items, the next picking task is prompted. This reduces the operator's idle time and improves warehousing efficiency.
