Based on thirty years of experience gained in the American market, the new Modula Horizontal Carousel warehouse is extremely flexible and modular. It lends itself to a variety of environments, especially in applications where it is not possible to make use of vertical space due to a low ceiling height or other structural impediments.

This is how the new Modula HC Horizontal Carousel was born. Its advanced carousel automation, flexibility and modularity, make it ideal for industrial environments where it is necessary to store many items in an orderly and automatic way.
The Modula HC automated carousel is particularly suitable for environments with particular geometries, architectural obstacles or low ceilings, where it is therefore not possible to exploit verticality.

The Modula HC automatic horizontal carousel warehouse is a solution with a low economic impact, designed to meet the growing demand for automation in the world of warehouse and distribution of medium-small products, ideal for all intensive picking applications.

The horizontal carousels have been designed to guarantee the highest safety standards for operators and for the stored materials.

Each configuration is supplied with:

How can productivity be increased with the Modula HC horizontal carousel system?

In order to increase productivity, horizontal carousels can be used in groups, usually called “pods”. Different configurations are available, consisting of 2, 3 or 4 carousels.

While an operator picks up from a carousel inside the pod, the other carousels rotate and prepare the material for subsequent pickings. This minimizes operator downtime, exponentially increasing performance. Each picking station can allow up to 550 pickings / hour.

Everything under control with a simple graphic interface

The high-speed automatic doors (opening / closing) guarantee the safety of operators by blocking access to moving parts until the carousel is completely stopped, when it is ready for picking.

The doors, made of high-strength polycarbonate, are equipped with sensors for detecting materials that may accidentally interfere with the closing of the doors and measuring the closing force such as to prevent any type of crushing.

Horizontal carousels are designed to deliver goods at eye level, avoiding incorrect movements or positions, and to handle weights instead of operators.

The doors have also been specially designed with a highly ergonomic semi-curved design to optimize the space available for picking workers.
