Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co. Inc. is an authorized dealer of Modula automatic storage and retrieval system (ASRS) that streamlines your warehouse and improves your operations with the push a button. If you choose us to provide your ASRS solutions, our team will perform a detailed logistical analysis of the warehouse and recommend the best automatic storage option for you. You can watch a video below.
Modula allows us to save time setting up and has all our inventory conveniently in one place. We had service within hours of calling and it was fixed. We are so happy.
The sealed system includes an extractor and a tray, which are stored vertically on the sides. It also has a control system for producing the goods to an ergonomically placed service opening. The tray can be picked by the extractor, which is also working in the background in order to set up the next one in a shorter time.
The inventory control is something we love the most. While our DMS system may sometimes not be accurate, we can always rely upon the Modula system for accuracy.
Vertical storage can free up to 90% of valuable floor space compared traditional warehouse storage, giving you that much more space to reallocate toward making more revenue.
Best Uses: Sheet Metal, Bar Stock, Tube Stock, Fiberglass, Plywood, Fabrication Support, Laser Cutting Operations
Best Uses: Fulfillment, Order Processing, Kitting, Small Parts Management, Buffer Module for Distribution.
Automated vertical carousels use a rotating 'ferris wheel' principal to maximize overhead storage. The track system allows inventory to be stored and retrieved by rotating Shelves or Carriers. This simple but robust system has been around since 1970 and is very reliable. This ASRS style is able to pack a lot into a small area, even at lower ceiling heights. It is delivered at an ergonomic waist height so that there are no need to bend, stoop or use ladders or order pickers. Stand-alone systems can be implemented quickly with the help of onboard controls. You have the option to integrate with your ERP for better order processing efficiency.
Options include: Full ERP integration, multiunit configurations, automated loading and conveyance, coordination, autonomous mobile robots.
Modula makes it possible to pick up components faster than before. Previously, operators had to walk through sections looking down rows and trying to find the right place. Now, the parts are delivered directly in front.
We can integrate vertical storage systems with industry-standard software to make them work in conjunction with automotive, healthcare, parts manufacturers, and many other WMSs, ERPs, or DMS databases.
Fast storage and retrieval times with high storage density, even when articles have different heights. Based on the goods to worker model (instead of man to goods) saves time and labor expense.
Vertical carousels are designed to accommodate bulky items, back stock and larger boxes. Automatically storing and retrieving inventory can make it easier to manage or retrieve.
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.
What exactly are vertical warehouses? Automated vertical warehouses are storage modules designed to automatically handle stocks of small bulk products. They work by height, utilizing vertical rather than horizontal space. Vertical lift technology is used in this automated warehouse system.
