System Logistics - VLS - Vertical Lift Sequencer and Sorting system

The VLS manages order picking requirements through sequencing and the temporary vertical arrangement of packages.
The VLS is a temporary storage device, characterized by a low footprint due to the vertical design. The machine uses lifting beam technology and a unique combination of a bottom handling extractor and cantilever finger storage to reliably handle a wide variety of totes, cartons and other loads types.
Solutions can be driven by order picking or sequencing requirements or by imbalances in general material flows within a distribution system.
Vertical Lift Sequencers will most often be implemented in groups or “blocks” to achieve rate and storage capacity requirements. Each VLS block is managed by an automated transport system.
