Reduce your storage footprint, picking time, and improve your inventory tracking with a Modula Vertical Lift Module (VLM).

    Modula Modula Long Goods VLM

    Modula Long Goods is designed to handle materials up to 7 meters in length (such as bars, profiles, extrusions, etc.), bringing the efficiency of vertical automation even to applications where storage has traditionally been a complex challenge.

    Fully automated, the system maximizes vertical space utilization, reducing floor footprint by up to 90% and optimizing operational flows. The result is smarter, safer, and more efficient material management, with always ergonomic and controlled access.

    With Modula Long Goods, large storage volumes are concentrated in compact areas, improving traceability, safety, and productivity. An advanced solution that overcomes the limits of traditional systems, transforming the management of long materials into a true competitive advantage by reducing manual handling, errors, and picking times.

    Designed to integrate seamlessly into production processes and with other handling systems, Modula Long Goods helps create more organized, high-performance, and future-oriented logistics flows.

    • UP TO 7 METERS WIDTH + UP TO 900 KG PER TRAY
    • UP TO 21 METERS IN HEIGHT + UP TO 80,000 KG TOTAL LOAD

    The Ideal Solution for Long Materials Storage

    Optimized to Handle Long Materials with Maximum Organization, Space Efficiency, and Operational Safety

    Discover Modula Long Goods, the innovative automatic vertical storage solution designed specifically for long and bulky materials. Built on proven Modula technology and extended to new dimensions, it delivers maximum density with minimum footprint, while ensuring ergonomic, safe picking at operator level.

    With tray widths up to 7060 mm, heights reaching 21 meters, and the ability to store materials up to 7 meters long, Modula Long Goods transforms how companies manage cutting profiles, PVC bars, extrusions, and more. From flexible tray configurations (solid or open) to seamless integration with handling systems, this solution adapts to your workflow — not the other way around.

    Vertical Automation Without Compromise

    Based on the experience and reliability of Modula Lift, Modula Long Goods inherits the “goods-to-person” operating principle, modular architecture, and high standards of safety and efficiency.

    The result?

    A system designed to optimize:

    • Space
    • Workflow
    • Picking times
    • Operator ergonomics

    even when handling bulky or long materials that would otherwise be difficult to manage.

    Two Solutions to Meet Different Operational Needs

    Modula Long Goods is available in two configurations, designed to meet different operational requirements and manage a wide range of long materials. The main difference lies in tray depth:

    • 637 mm
    • 840 mm

    This dimension can be further organized internally through the use of dividers, separators, and height extensions. This flexible design allows bars, profiles, and other materials to be efficiently organized within the same tray, maximizing space utilization while maintaining order, accessibility, and operational efficiency.

    Applications:

    • Aluminium
    • PVC bars or other materials
    • Profiles
    • Extrusions
    • Tubes
    • Blades

    Seamless Integration for Optimized Workflows

    Modula Long Goods is designed to simplify the handling of long and bulky materials, which are difficult for a single operator to manage.

    For this reason, integration with handling systems is an intrinsic feature of the system.

    It can operate in combination with:

    • Forklift trucks
    • Overhead cranes
    • Balancers
    • weight balancers
    • Manipulators

    with direct access to the bay.

    It is also designed with the optional possibility of a lateral opening for bar unloading (single or multiple). The operator can safely extract the material without needing to access the entire tray.

    Through Modula WMS, it integrates seamlessly into the ecosystem with other Modula technologies or with manual warehouses, robots, and ERP systems.
