Vertical Lifts operate with 1) Movement Section, referred to as the elevator or extractor, and 2) Storage Section. This vertical and horizontal movement helps you utilize vertical facility space without the need for mezzanines, man-lifts, or forklifts. Floor space savings from 70-90% can be achieved with vertical lift systems, while also improving safety and ergonomics for your team. By reducing the need for peripheral handling equipment as well as your personnel walking / searching for inventory, productivity gains from vertical storage systems can be significant.
