Storage-equipment : Logimat Vertical Storage Lift

Manufacturer: Autoscan Limited

For high volume, high speed picking and heavy duty warehouse solutions

A vertical storage lift module (VLM) is an automated storage and retrieval unit consisting of an extractor mechanism, located between two sections of stationary racking, inside a metal enclosure. A series of trays inserted in the front and rear racks are used to store product. When activated, the extractor device brings a requested tray or items from the rack to an ergonomically positioned workstation.
VLMs enable a large inventory to be directed to a picker at a fixed location. By eliminating the climbing, reaching, and bending necessary to pick from multiple levels, VLMs produce a more efficient "parts to picker" instead of "picker to parts" workflow—increasing worker safety and productivity.
Found in many Leading companies, the LogiMat increases storage density (of up to 90%), throughput, and material handling efficiency while reducing inventory losses and labour costs. They efficiently deliver product to the operator, yielding a low-floor-space way of storing, securing, and retrieving anything from small parts to fixtures and tools.
