WHAT ARE VERTICAL LIFT MACHINES?
Vertical Lift Machines, commonly known as
vertical carousels, represent an innovative
approach to vertical storage systems within the
warehousing and distribution sectors. These
machines are ingeniously designed to optimise
high-density storage by efficiently using
vertical space. They consist of multiple trays or
shelves that rotate vertically, bringing items to
the operator, thus reducing retrieval time and
contributing significantly to warehouse
automation.
The vertical carousel is a versatile solution
that can store a wide range of items, from small
components to larger products, making it
adaptable to various industries and storage
needs.

ADVANTAGES OF VERTICAL CAROUSELS
Vertical Lift Machines offer numerous benefits
that can positively impact your warehouse
operations
High-Density Storage
One of the standout advantages is their ability
to maximize storage space by utilizing the
vertical dimension. This not only saves valuable
floor space but also ensures efficient space
utilization.
Efficient Retrieval
Vertical Lift Machines are designed to expedite
the retrieval process. Items are brought directly
to the operator, reducing picking time and
increasing overall productivity.
Reduced Errors
Automation within these systems significantly
reduces human errors, ensuring precise and
accurate order fulfilment, which is crucial for
customer satisfaction.
Space Optimisation
Vertical carousels are ideal for businesses with
limited space. They make the most of the
available room, allowing you to store more items
within a smaller footprint.

problems.
Cleaning
Keep the machine and trays clean to prevent the
buildup of debris, which can hinder the smooth
movement of trays. A clean machine operates more
efficiently.
Lubrication
Properly lubricate all moving parts following the
manufacturer's recommendations. Adequate
lubrication reduces friction, prolonging the
lifespan of critical components.
