A vertical lift storage system consists of mechanical, electrical, and software components working together as an integrated automation platform.
Core components:
- Storage Trays – Adjustable trays that hold inventory of varying sizes and weights.
- Extractor (Lift Mechanism) – Automatically retrieves and stores trays inside the system.
- Vertical Enclosure – Steel structure housing trays and internal mechanisms.
- Access Opening – Ergonomic interface where operators receive trays.
- Control Software (WMS/WCS) – Manages inventory, locations, access rights, and integrations.
- Safety Systems – Sensors, interlocks, light curtains, and access controls.
Why integration matters:
The intelligence of the software and mechanical precision directly impact speed, accuracy, and reliability.
