Vertical lift module offers 2,204-lb. capacity
- December 23, 2014
- Product Release
- Materials Handling
Integrated Systems Design offers heavy-weight vertical lift modules (VLMs), designed to handle up to 2,204 lbs. per tray.
A VLM is a column with a series of trays in the front and back, plus an insertion/extraction device that runs in the center of the column, delivering trays to an ergonomic pick window. Each tray’s height is scanned automatically and stored in less than 4-in. increments. Lighter-capacity models optimize in 0.5-in. increments. The unit can shuffle the trays automatically and reoptimize to find additional capacity.
With the new tray capacity, the VLM can handle heavier products and materials, more items, and high-value pallets and containers. Depending on the application, additional equipment can be integrated, such as carts, conveyors, pick-and-put lights, batch stations, weigh scales, and bar code readers.
