Manufacturing Vertical Storage Systems
Manufacturing operations require efficient storage for raw materials, work-in-progress, tooling, and finished goods. Vertical storage systems deliver goods to the operator at an ergonomic height, eliminate walking time, and store materials in a fraction of the floor space needed by traditional rack and shelving.
Key Solutions for Manufacturing
Vertical Lift Modules
Store sheet metal, bar stock, dies, and heavy materials vertically with automated retrieval. FIFO inventory management and precise lot tracking.
Pan Carousels
Organize fasteners, fittings, electronic components, and small parts. Motorized rotation delivers the right pan to the operator in seconds.
Wire & Cable Carousels
Store wire spools, cable reels, and hose rolls vertically with integrated cut stations for efficient material dispensing.
Bar Stock Vertical Lifts
Store steel, aluminum, and pipe up to 24 feet long. Automated retrieval eliminates forklift handling and reduces material damage.
Manufacturing Benefits
- 5x storage density — store five times more in the same floor space
- 75% faster retrieval — goods come to the operator, not the other way around
- FIFO inventory — automated systems enforce first-in, first-out material flow
- Reduced damage — materials are stored securely without stacking or manual handling
- Better ergonomics — materials delivered at waist height reduce injuries
- Inventory accuracy — each location is tracked, reducing shrinkage and search time
