Modula Slim: the compact vertical warehouse

All the benefits of Lift technology, in no more space than a vertical carousel

You don’t need a very tall warehouse, a limited depth is available and you need to limit costs, but you still want to switch to an automatic warehouse?

Modula Slim, that has all the benefits of a vertical lift system in the space of a vertical carousel, is the ideal solution: not only is it a compact and economical automatic vertical carousel + compac warehouse, it is also easy to install and is the ideal answer for those looking for an automated vertical storage solution with total flexibility, without sacrificing Lift technology.

Its very limited depth makes it suitable not only for industrial environments but also for small businesses such as shops, garages, workshops, pharmacies and points of sale.

You can store all types of materials and products in your Modula Slim automatic vertical warehouse: loose materials, containers (boxes, bins, packs, cartons, cases), small items, spare parts, coils, flasks.

It is available in various models and sizes, all with a depth of only 1.6 m.

Slim 1.3 tray width: 1,300 mm
Slim 1.9 tray width: 1,900 mm
Slim 2.5 tray width: 2,500 mm

The height can vary from 2,400 mm to 7,000 mm, the gross weight is 25,000 kg for all models and the operator bay is always internal with a single delivery level.

Modula Slim, the compact vertical storage system, puts every inch of your warehouse space to use, made possible by dynamic tray height storage.

What does that mean?

There are no fixed heights, the warehouse can calculate the positioning of the trays to optimise the gaps between them and can reposition the trays inside the structure once measured when they enter the bay.

That way, the tray order changes according to the maximum height of the material in storage (always 650 mm) and the space is optimised by eliminating unused space between the shelves.

Modula Slim has an easy-to-use touch interface, positioned directly on the front of the machine, to guide the operator when picking from and refilling its single delivery level

A true revolution, to optimise your warehouse space inside the storage tower and out.

Your energy bills will benefit too! Modula Slim is also green, consuming only 1.2 kWh (much less than an oven or hairdryer).
