Why choose a vertical carousel storage unit? 

 

Vertical carousel systems offer unparalleled pick rates, pick accuracy & a safe working environment. Whether in rotary Vertical Carousel or Vertical Lift tray storage format, they operate on the principle of goods to person rather than person to goods. The goods are delivered to the picker at an ergonomic height. The picker doesn’t have to go looking for the stock.

We currently have a large selection of vertical carousels available ranging from 4.5m high to 7.1m high. These carousels are all in good working order and will last for many years if maintained properly.

Please visit our VERTICAL CAROUSELS page for more details.

The Vertical Carousel from VCA can help you optimize space on your shop floor or in your distribution centre while also enhancing the efficiency and ergonomics of picking operations and ensuring the safety of your employees.

Here is a summary of the benefits of storing your inventory and items in a vertical carousel:

  • Increased speed and accuracy of picking operations as items are automatically retrieved and brought to the operator at the touch of a button.
  • Eliminate safety issues with forklifts and ladders.
  • With the inherent ergonomic design, reduce employee injury from reaching, bending and twisting while retrieving or carrying loads.
  • All inventory is centrally located and optional integrated software allows for inventory management processes to improve dramatically.
  • Recover up to 80% of floor space by storing vertically.

Advantages of the Vertical Carousel

 

One of the unique and compelling features of a Vertical Carousel is that it utilizes unused overhead space and stores items by stacking them vertically (up to 10m). Standard shelving stacks items vertically to just within arms’ reach, then they are multiplied laterally taking up a lot of floor space. Storing vertically not only saves a lot of space, but also saves employee time and energy in locating items as they are delivered directly to the operator.

Which type of system do I need?

Vertical Carousel storage systems have a series of carriers (shelves) supported by chains either side that rotate vertically in a loop like a ferris wheel. The shelves stop in front of a bench where the operator can pick from an ergonomic height. Shelves can be open or divided into sub-shelves which have a series of parts trays with dividers in them. The shelves are a fixed height. The footprint of a vertical carousel is much smaller than a vertical lift module. It is controlled by a PC & PLC with software that is easy to use. We have a large selection of used vertical carousels available. They are less than half the cost of a new machine.

VLM (Vertical Lift Module) storage systems have a series of drawers (trays) that are picked up by an extractor (Lift), height is scanned & deposited into slots in the machine. These systems consist of two rows of slotted supports front & back which contain trays that are transported by an extractor from the supports to the picking bay.

As the tray goes in the height of the product is scanned. Then the tray is deposited into a vacant  slot in the machine. It is controlled by a hardware and software system that is very easy to use.
